Trouble with embedding facebook events on wordpress website

Hi,

recently i have been trying to embed a facebook event into a wordpress site.

However I found it a little of a challenge. It seems there are 2 ways to create an event, 1 way through your own profile page, and another through a fanpage.
(http://marketing.about.com/od/socialmediamarketing/a/facebookeventsetup.htm[^])

My question is, there are existing wordpress plugins that work well for method 2.
But is there any implementation for method one?

To further clarify, method 1 has url format of http://www.facebook.com/events/xxxxx
and method 2 has url format of https://www.facebook.com/pages/Name-of-Page/xxxxxxxx?sk=events

Thanks,
Brian

This is an example of method 2, which is quite easy to find. Anyone implement events created from the profile page itself? Because I don't want to move all my posts from my events to a new Fan page created event.
