Our fees

Please contact me for an exact quote, as it is hard to give a price without knowing your event. I have tried to give you some of the fees based on my services.

If you hire me as a Full Service Wedding Coordinator the fee is 15% of the entire budget of the wedding.  For example, if your wedding budget were $20,000.00 then my fee would be $3,000.00. The minimum fee for full wedding coordination is $2,000.00 no matter the budget of your wedding.  If we sign a contract based on a specific budget and it is increased during the planning process, we will adjust my fee based on the new budget. .

If you hire me as a “Day of” planner, the fee is $750.00. This does not include the rehearsal, but it can be added if needed for an additional $250.00. If the event takes place at multiple locations, then the fee is $1,000.00(plus the rehearsal fee, if applicable).

If you hire me as a partial planner, you have two options. If you have hired all of your vendors, but need help with a specific one or a specific task then you can hire me hourly. The fee is $25.00 per hour. We will come up with a maximum hourly time to spend on the topic. This way you do not get a bill that you did not plan on.

Usually I'm asked to do partial planning when people begin planning their wedding or other special event. However, as the day approaches they realize that there is an overwhelming amount of planning that still needs to be completed. I will assist you in the final logistics and organizational decisions. I can enter the planning of the event at any point before the wedding. I will recommend vendors, review contracts, organize transportation or hotels, and relieve all of the stress from planning. I become the main contact on the client's behalf, and complete the remainder of the planning. Most clients hire me in conjunction with hiring me as the day of planner.  Depending on the planning left to do when you hire me, we will discuss a price accordingly. Please call or email me for a free consultation where I can see where you are at and what you have in mind. Then I can give you a free, no obligation quote!

The Deposit

In order to hold your event date, you will need to put down a deposit.

Your deposit will be half of the total invoice amount for your event. The remaining half of your invoice amount is due one month prior to your event.

Additional fees:

You will also be required to pay parking fees (if parking garages or valet is required), on the event day and for the rehearsal (if hired for a rehearsal). I do not charge mileage.

 If this is a destination event, you will be required to pay for my hotel accommodations.

We will sign a contract based on your wedding length plus the amount of time that I need prior to the event and after the event. If the event plus drive time will be longer than 11 hours, there will be an additional fee of $100.00 per hour. This keeps people from having me get to the event at 10:00 am to run errands when the event does not start until 5:00 pm. Most of the time this fee is not necessary!

If you are having a large event or have multiple locations for your event, I may need to bring an assistant. If I do need to bring an assistant it will be an additional $250.00.

Once we meet and decide what exactly you need, I will give you a free quote. Once you are ready to hire me, we will sign a contract with all information and fees included.
