Morphology

event + planner

The meaning 'a person organizing and coordinating events' is directly derivable from combining 'event' (occurrence) with 'planner' (someone who makes plans). This noun–noun compound follows a common and transparent English composition pattern that B1 learners who know both constituents will readily understand.

Etymology

Event planner comes from the simple picture of a person making a plan for an event and acting as the planner. Imagine someone with a notebook checking the place, the food and the schedule. That's why it means 'a person who organizes and coordinates events'.
