There are three packages offered so that you can select what fits best for you!
Full-Service Event Planning is typically started one to three years out. This package includes an extensive venue selection, budget creation and tracking, and a hand-holder for the tricky and tedious invitation process.
Mid-Level Planning is typically from the six-month mark. You select the venue, hire the vendors, and choose your own invitations. After that Jennifer jumps in and executes your theme, decor, audio-visual and lighting. This package also includes managing your vendors and contacts from this point on until the event.
Month Of Event Coordination is exactly what it sounds like. You plan the event and Jennifer hops in at one month from the event to “Tie A Bow” on it! Includes final vendor management, payment of invoices, guest seating consultation, floor plan consulting, and of course, working the event the day of. Jennifer will be there from start to finish to ensure your event goes smoothly!
For social occasions like birthdays and anniversaries, 6-9 months from the event is suggested.

Event planners have lots of contacts and are able to negotiate better contracts with these vendors based on how much business they do together. In addition, a good planner should direct you to spend your money on impactful aspects of the event vs things that might sound like a good idea, but might not be needed for a successful event. In other words, a good planner should be smart with the money, not frivolous.
It all depends on what you need! You may want to hire a planner to create the look, set up the decor and then leave you to entertain your guests, or you may want someone there for the entirety of the event. The nice thing about my packages is that I can customize a package based on what you need, and what you can afford.
