V-Rated

Our Critics at V-Rated have crawled through the event trenches, fought the floor plan layout fight, bravely faced surprise attacks from logistical challenges and have come out highly skilled in what to look for in an event venue.

It is our mission to provide you, the Privates, Corporals and even Sergeants of the event world, with accurate, unbiased, logistically useful information for each event we rate. There are no pansy reports here! We vow to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth (so help us God).

Together we can find you the perfect venue for your event. Together we can.

The V-Rated Critics

	Kerry Reid President As V-Rated’s President, Kerry Reid is the mastermind behind bringing party people one step closer to their perfect venue. Having a strong background in event planning and management, Kerry saw a need for a centralized, impartial, directory of global event venues loaded with actually useful information. In coordinating numerous events from elopements on cruise ships to high traffic trade shows there was always one element in common: the need to research, tour, and evaluate venues. No one wants to choose the wrong venue for an event but until now there was only trial and error. So, armed with a quick wit, bubbly personality and some serious leadership and business development skills, Kerry looks after the vision of the company, its Critics and the Critique process, and fostering relationships with our valued venues in order to bring you a more intelligent way to find your next venue. Kerry received a Bachelor of Arts degree in psychology from TWU with a minor in sociology and then quickly went into an unrelated field – event planning. Prior to creating V-Rated, Kerry owned a successful wedding and event planning company (which still lives on today) and a boutique bridal show in Vancouver. She has completed both business and event planning training at the British Columbia Institute of Technology, her WPIC, DSW and CSS certifications and is currently enrolled in an ongoing leadership and success program. Next up: PADI dive certification.
