What Clients Ask About Event Planning
Many of our clients show up to an early conversation with uncertainty about what to expect. Below are direct answers to the most common event planning:
How much does professional event planning typically cost in Miami?The cost of professional event coordination depend on many factors based on the scope of services, number of guests, and timeline. Smaller events can begin in the low thousands, while large-scale corporate events often involve significantly larger investments. Our team offers transparent pricing during the initial consultation so there are complete transparency throughout the process.
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 months in advance. A day-of coordinator arrives to the event and focuses on running the logistics of a pre-planned occasion. Each approach has its place — our team will recommend what approach makes the most sense for your event.
How early do I need to hire a planner?The sooner you engage a planner the better. For weddings and galas, most planners advise booking at least 6–12 months in advance. More intimate gatherings can often be managed in a shorter window, but earlier bookings still have advantages. In busy periods, availability fills up quickly, so getting the conversation started is always wise.
Do you handle events outside of Miami?Though we operate primarily in the Miami area, our team has planned occasions in locations throughout the Southeast and across the country. Events outside our primary area fall within our service range and come with the same level of attention to detail we deliver here in Miami.

We also work regularly along the waterfront venues Bayside Marketplace and the surrounding bayfront properties, that provide stunning views for high-profile dinners and ceremonies.
