Rose A. says, "I had the opportunity to work with Misha for my wedding, and the experience exceeded my expectations in every way. From start to finish, she demonstrated outstanding professionalism, organization, and problem-solving skills, all while managing an incredibly tight deadline. Her ability to keep everything on track under pressure was truly impressive and played a major role in the success of the event. When the project began, we were working within a very limited timeframe, which could have easily created stress and confusion. Instead, she immediately established a clear plan, organized priorities, and ensured that every detail was accounted for. Her structured approach helped streamline the entire process and gave everyone confidence that the event would come together successfully despite the compressed schedule. One of her greatest strengths is communication. She kept all parties informed throughout every stage of planning and coordination, making sure expectations were clear and updates were provided promptly. Questions were answered quickly, and she was always available when guidance or clarification was needed. Her responsiveness helped prevent delays and ensured that everyone remained aligned throughout the project. In addition to being highly organized, she is incredibly resourceful. Event planning often comes with unexpected challenges, especially when timelines are tight, but she consistently found solutions quickly and effectively. Whenever obstacles arose, she approached them with a calm, professional attitude and focused on finding the best path forward. Her ability to adapt and problem-solve in real time was one of the reasons the project ran so smoothly. What I appreciated most was her professionalism. Even while managing multiple responsibilities and navigating a demanding schedule, she remained composed, courteous, and reliable. She consistently followed through on commitments, met deadlines, and maintained a high level of attention to detail. It was clear that she genuinely cared about delivering the best possible outcome and ensuring that everyone involved had a positive experience. Her coordination skills were equally impressive. There were many moving pieces that needed to come together within a short period, and she handled each aspect with confidence and precision. She kept everything organized, prioritized tasks effectively, and ensured that no detail was overlooked. Her leadership and project management abilities were evident from beginning to end. Another thing that stood out was her positive attitude. Tight deadlines can create pressure for everyone involved, but she maintained a collaborative and encouraging approach throughout the process. She helped create an environment where people felt supported and motivated, which made working together both productive and enjoyable. By the time the event was completed, it was clear that her efforts had been instrumental to its success. Her ability to stay organized, communicate effectively, solve problems quickly, and manage a demanding timeline made all the difference. She brought professionalism and expertise to every aspect of the project and exceeded expectations at every stage. I would absolutely recommend her services to anyone looking for event planning or coordination support through Thumbtack. She is dependable, highly organized, resourceful, and exceptionally professional. Most importantly, she has the ability to deliver outstanding results even when working under significant time constraints. It was a pleasure working with her, and I would not hesitate to work with her again in the future."See more

Vida R. says, "Chef Blaze & Chef John created a wonderful and intimate experience for us in our home to celebrate our 5th wedding anniversary! Pros: Chef Blaze called for a consultation to go over food options and ultimately crafted a beautiful menu that included (2) starters, (2) main entrees, (2) veggies, (1) starch, (1) dessert, (2) alcoholic drinks, & (2) complimentary purees for our little one! I felt the price for everything was very fair and covered everything from beginning to end including the food, preparation, cooking, presentation, and cleanup. My husband and I appreciated the free-flowing conversation, learning about the chef's background and how food & cooking became their passion. The presentation of the courses was stunning, serving course after course until our stomachs were full! The food itself was delicious, especially the Tomahawk steak, crab dip, lobster tails, brussel sprouts, lemon cookie cheesecake, and smoked old-fashioned. When they were over, not only did they leave our kitchen clean and spotless, but they also packed up the remaining leftover food for us (was very appreciative of the generous portions) and we had dinner for the rest of the week! Cons: While we had requested an earlier start time of around 4-5pm, Chef Blaze was running late due to traffic and ultimately didn't arrive until 6:30pm and the first course wasn't presented until after 8:15pm. There was also an issue with one of the main dishes when a driver delivered a small ribeye steak and not the 32oz Tomahawk steak that was planned. However, Chef Blaze made sure to call around and left to pick up the steak in person to ensure it was correct! Last, our roasted broccolini was excluded from the menu and our little one missed out on her complimentary mango puree as planned. Overall, I would recommend Chef Blaze for his innovation, dedication to his craft, and culinary, and he takes the time to make sure you have a great experience and food adventure for your palette! Although not everything went 100%, I appreciate that he took the time to correct a few things and made a dinner experience one that we'll never forget. Thanks so much again Chef Blaze!"See more

FAQs

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Thumbtack.

A wedding planner is a professional service provider whose job it is to organize and execute all the details of a couple’s wedding. A wedding planner can be contracted at any stage in the wedding planning process to help to any degree the couple is willing to pay for. Wedding planning is similar to event planning in that a planning team handles the coordination of multiple wedding elements including catering, venue, guests, entertainment, decor, transportation and more. Anyone who has ever been involved in a wedding can confirm that wedding planning is hard work. Experience brings wisdom when it comes to avoiding or resolving day-of challenges. There is no legal regulatory body that oversees or certifies wedding planning as an industry. Anyone who chooses can call themselves a wedding planner. When looking for a wedding planner, be sure to read reviews, and make smart hiring decisions by asking about licenses and insurance.

On average, wedding planners charge $80 for their services. However, rates can range from roughly $50 per hour to $100 per hour, or even more than $300 per hour.

To find out how much it will cost to hire a wedding planner, request cost estimates from a few in your area. Also, keep in mind that some wedding planners may have flat fees instead of hourly rates.

Wedding planning is a full-time job — unless you hire a professional to handle the hard work for you. The cost for a wedding planner will depend on the level of service you desire. The least expensive wedding planner option is day-of coordination, then partial service, then full-service.  

The national average cost for wedding planning is between $990 and $1,300. Costs are greatly affected by region, with rural or smaller-town wedding planners often far more affordable than planners in higher-cost cities. Here are some examples of the various levels of wedding planning and their potential average costs:

  • Day-of-wedding coordination: $800-$1,700. Day-of services can include the planner finalizing all details, creating a timeline, confirming vendors and overseeing all setup, day-of activities, and cleanup. The couple does all the front-end planning and contracts all the vendors. Time commitment could be about 15-25 hours, depending on pricing.
  • Partial service: $1,500-$3,800. Here the planner works with the couple from the beginning, helping contract vendors, creating a timeline, and overseeing all details of day-of execution. Time commitment could be about 30-60 hours, depending on package and pricing.
  • Full service: $3,500-$8,000 or more. Here the professional handles all wedding and planning details including working on design, securing rentals, getting the venue and vendors, and handling complete execution of the event. Time commitment could be 50-150 hours or more, depending on package and pricing.
  • Consulting: $50-$150 per hour for design, vendor, reception and other wedding planning consultation.

Hiring a wedding planner can be worth the cost if you want to minimize your stress and save yourself time. Let’s be real — planning a wedding is a lot of work. You have to figure out a budget, shop around for vendors (DJs, bands, florists, caterers, chefs, photographers, videographers, etc.), negotiate contracts, book appointments and so much more. 

If you’re not interested in planning a wedding all on your own, consider hiring a wedding planner — especially if you have the budget.

Wedding planners do exactly what their job titles indicate — they plan your entire wedding and handle the logistics. For example, they will: 

  • Identify the best DJs, caterers, florists, photographers and other vendors for your wedding.
  • Help negotiate and set up contracts with your vendors. 
  • Keep track of your budget and spending.
  • Make sure that everything runs smoothly on your wedding day.

In some cases, you might need to hire a separate wedding designer to handle the styling services or a wedding coordinator to oversee the schedule and activities the day of your wedding.

A wedding coordinator is involved in the wedding planning process, but some coordinators focus on the day-of activities and schedule. These professionals are sometimes referred to as “day-of wedding coordinators.” They make sure your wedding starts on time, the vendors are there and everything runs smoothly. Essentially, they are your point person. And they can help minimize the stress (and jitters) brides and grooms may experience when throwing a wedding.
