How pricing works
Two different budgets
Most weddings have two separate budgets. One pays for the wedding itself. One pays for someone to make it run.
A 40-person backyard wedding can be more complex than a 75-person restaurant wedding. Guest count matters. Logistics matter more.
Starting rates are listed below. Final pricing depends on your venue, timeline, setup, teardown, rehearsal, travel, guest count, and any add-ons.
Local planning ranges
Where small weddings tend to land
Honest local guideposts, not quotes. Yours depends on your choices.
Core Small Wedding
Elevated Small Wedding
High-Touch / Private-Property Wedding
Why the spread?
Two weddings the same size can cost very differently. A backyard often needs rentals and extra hands a restaurant already includes. The range is a starting frame, and we'll narrow it together.

Essential Coordination
Starting at $1,500
For couples doing most of the planning themselves who want someone steady to help carry it across the finish line.
We check in three months out, help you get organized, answer questions along the way, connect with your vendors, and take over when the day arrives.
By the wedding week, everyone should know where to be, what's happening, and who to text. Not you.

Signature Coordination
Starting at $2,100
For couples who want more than day-of support.
You have a vision for the wedding. We help turn it into a plan.
We'll spend more time shaping the details, coordinating with vendors, thinking through guest experience, and making sure everything works together before the wedding day arrives.
By the wedding week, the plan should feel settled, the vendors should know what they're doing, and you shouldn't be the person holding everything together.

Add-ons
Timeline Audit & Handoff Packet $250–$500
For couples who don't need full coordination but want an experienced second set of eyes before the wedding.
We'll review your timeline, vendor plan, and day-of logistics looking for gaps, conflicts, unrealistic timing, and the things people usually discover a little too late.
You'll leave with a cleaner timeline, a clearer handoff plan, and a list of anything worth fixing before the wedding week.
Wedding Signage & Paper Goods Starts at $350
For couples who want the details to feel like they belong together.
We'll help design and produce invitations, signage, menus, seating charts, place cards, QR cards, glassware, and other printed pieces that help the wedding feel like the same wedding from beginning to end.
Pricing depends on the number of pieces, design time, materials, printing, production, and revisions.
Usually separate: rush production, specialty materials, large-format printing, and custom fabrication.
Guest Guide + Memory Archive Guest Guide from $350 · Morning After Archive $500–$900
A private wedding website for the month before and month after the wedding.
Before the wedding, guests get everything they actually need in one place: schedule, location details, parking, dress code, FAQs, and who to contact instead of you.
After the wedding, guests can upload photos and videos into one shared archive instead of leaving them scattered across phones, texts, and group chats.
The result is less time answering questions beforehand and more memories collected afterward.
Also quoted per event: an extra assistant for complex setups or larger guest counts, and additional hours for longer days or later teardown.
Find your fit
Not sure what level of support you need?
Answer a few questions and we'll point you toward the best starting place.
What affects cost most
What affects the budget
- Guest countEvery guest affects more than the meal. More people usually means more tables, chairs, rentals, staffing, and logistics.
- Venue typeA restaurant often comes with furniture, staff, and built-in infrastructure. A backyard usually starts with an empty space.
- Food & beverageFood, drinks, service charges, gratuities, and minimums tend to make up a large part of most wedding budgets.
- RentalsTables, chairs, linens, tents, lighting, power, and restrooms can add up quickly when a venue doesn't already provide them.
- Photography, video & musicMost vendors charge based on coverage time rather than guest count, so a 20-person wedding and a 75-person wedding can cost the same.
- Setup & teardownGetting everything in place and packed away takes time, labor, and coordination, especially at private properties.
- Custom detailsSignage, paper goods, favors, DIY projects, and personalized touches are often small individually but can add up together.
Every wedding is different. The same budget can look very different depending on the venue, guest count, and choices you make along the way.
