A practical way to price wedding planner work
tiered packages for full planning, partial planning, and coordination, with clear hours and travel terms.
The RateWise calculator starts with your costs and desired income, then divides that target by your realistic billable hours. Use the result as a planning floor and tailor the client-facing quote to scope and local conditions.
What changes the price?
- planning timeline, guest count, and event complexity
- vendor sourcing, meetings, and communication
- rehearsal, event-day hours, travel, and assistants
Minimum-job example
A coordination minimum should cover onboarding, timeline creation, vendor confirmation, rehearsal, and event-day management. In the calculator, try your expected billable hours first, then use the minimum-job result as a check against short appointments or small projects.
Wedding Planner pricing FAQ
How do wedding planners price month-of coordination?
List exactly when coordination begins and what vendor, timeline, rehearsal, and event-day support is included.
Should planners charge a percentage of the wedding budget?
Some do, while others use packages or retainers. Choose a model you can explain clearly and that matches the scope you control.
Should a wedding planner publish an hourly rate?
An hourly figure can be useful internally, but the customer-facing format should match the work. Use tiered packages for full planning, partial planning, and coordination, with clear hours and travel terms and make travel, materials, revisions, or add-ons clear before the job begins.
How do I use this wedding planner pricing calculator?
Start with the suggested inputs, replace them with your own monthly costs, income goal, and realistic billable hours, then use the result as a planning floor—not a guaranteed market price.
