Gather event planning inspiration images
Pitching an event is a visual argument. Clients want the ballroom at golden hour, the tablescape, the floral palette, and the lighting mood—in one coherent board, not fifteen browser tabs. Event planners pull from venue sites, rental catalogs, and inspiration galleries; the slow part is gathering and organizing those shots. To download images for event planning efficiently, scrape every source in one pass, filter clutter, dedupe the same trending setup, and folder files by event before the deck goes out.
Bulk Image Downloader From URL List assembles concept boards locally in Chrome. Use venue and vendor images according to each source’s terms; confirm reuse rights before client-facing publication.
Step 1: scrape venues, vendors, and inspiration in one sweep
Paste venue and vendor page URLs into Bulk URL scrape when a proposal references several locations. On a single gallery, run the side-panel scraper with Deep Scan so shots below the fold load before you select. Grid view shows ballrooms and tablescapes as thumbnails—bulk-select only what matches the event theme.
When a venue emails their photo folder, drop those files into Upload Mode and run them through the same resize and watermark settings as your scraped inspiration.
Step 2: filter for pitch-ready photography
- minimum width passes large venue photos and drops icon-sized assets
- aspect ratio keeps wide room shots and skips narrow product strips
- file type keeps photographs and skips logos on catalog index pages
Step 3: dedupe spaces saved across directories and blogs
Popular venues and trending tablescapes get reposted across event blogs and rental directories. URL deduplication clears exact repeats; the perceptual duplicate finder groups visual twins. Keep the sharpest, highest-resolution version of each setup so your pitch shows one strong image per idea, not three near-identical angles of the same ballroom.
Step 4: resize, brand, and ZIP the deck
Standardize board width with resize while downloading (for example 1600 px long edge, JPEG quality ~85%). Resize and convert are mutually exclusive per task. Add your agency mark via PNG watermark image only (no text watermark). Enable per-task ZIP when you hand one file to a teammate or client portal.
Everything processes locally in Chrome—concepts for unreleased events stay on your machine.
Step 5: keep one folder per event
- Filename Constructor tokens like
gala-decor-03encode event and category - Auto Folders separates concurrent events automatically
- save filters, resize, watermark, and naming as a Saved Rule you quick-apply for each new client
Tier note
Basic (Free) supports URL-list downloads. Resize, convert, watermark, ZIP packaging, and Auto Folders are available on Try PRO or Licensed PRO.
Install it when concept boards should be pitch-ready while you focus on logistics.
One layout stays out of your way
Classic folds the optional controls into a single Reveal optional area, and remembers whether you left it open after a refresh. For event decks where you set resize, watermark, and ZIP once and reuse them, keeping that area open puts the whole setup on one page. Browser and Pipeline spread the same controls across tabs and nine steps.
Since Classic, Browser, and Pipeline save identical output, this is a comfort decision rather than a capability one. Unless a download is running, switching is instant and your edits carry across — so pick the screen that matches how often you revisit those settings.
