What's a realistic budget for event planning services?Pricing for event management services vary widely based on the scope of services, number of guests, and timeline.

What's the difference between a full-service planner and a day-of coordinator?A full-service event planner is involved from start to finish — budget, vendors, design — starting well ahead of the date.
