FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I have checked around with other planners and my prices are drastically less than most of them. I am in this business because this is what I love doing, not just to make a buck. For that same reason, I have set my prices to what the least amount is that I am willing to put my time, knowledge and experience into. I have three packages that vary with how much I will do for the customer and their event. A lot of work goes into planning events, especially large events such as weddings. However since I love doing all that work, my prices reflect that and are comparable, or less than other planners.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I usually start with phone or emailing back and forth with a new customer to see what they are looking for and the date that they are looking for to see if I am available first of all. Then I get some general information about the event and what services they are most concerned about. After communicating with them and determining if I can plan their event and if they are interested in me planning their event, the next step is to set up an in person initial consultation. I work out of my home, so I prefer to meet the customers/clients either at their homes or a place that is comfortable and convenient for them.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
In 2020, I took an Event Planning class through Ashworth College. I graduated and received an Event Planning with Honors Diploma.
