yellow group · The short answer
PEOPLE HIRED FOR AN EVENT
Each puzzle word passes the same exact test. The four mappings show how the answer works.
A band can be booked to provide live music at a wedding, party or other organized occasion.
A florist may be contracted to design and supply bouquets, centerpieces or other floral arrangements.
A photographer can be engaged to document an occasion and produce a record of its important moments.
A planner may coordinate schedules, vendors, logistics and other practical parts of an organized occasion.
Why this group was difficult
- BAND can name an object or range
BAND has several familiar nonmusical senses, so its role as a bookable musical act is not automatic. - PLANNER can be a book
PLANNER may mean a scheduling notebook rather than a person, creating a visible part-of-speech ambiguity. - The setting is deliberately broad
The rule says an event, not one particular kind, so looking only for wedding vocabulary can feel too narrow.
How to spot this pattern next time
Look for four entries that can answer the practical question “Whom might we hire?” around the preparation and running of an occasion.
When a word can name either a person or an object, test the person sense against the other candidates before rejecting the set.
Four useful facts behind the group
- A BAND may be booked as a single performing act even though it contains several musicians.
- A FLORIST can provide both individual flowers and designed arrangements for a venue.
- A PHOTOGRAPHER may be hired for posed portraits, candid coverage or both.
- A PLANNER commonly coordinates multiple vendors rather than supplying one physical product.
