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

Maria G. says, "Hiring Designs With Ambar as my Day-of Coordinator was one of the best decisions I made for my baby shower. When I first reached out to Ambar, I explained that I had already done the heavy lifting—developing the vision, selecting vendors, and handling payments—but I needed someone professional, detail-oriented, and firm enough to take over the project management and ensure “the trains ran on time” on the day of the event. That is exactly what she delivered. Ambar seamlessly stepped into the role of lead coordinator, managing vendors, overseeing the timeline, coordinating with the venue, bakery, bartenders, the live band, etc., and ensuring that every moving part of the event stayed on schedule. She took ownership of the day so I could focus on enjoying the celebration with my family and friends. What impressed me most was her ability to enhance my event without ever changing my vision. She offered thoughtful suggestions along the way that improved the overall experience while remaining true to what I had planned. She understood what I was trying to achieve and helped bring it to life. She also went above and beyond in ways I never expected. At the last minute, she helped update my souvenir bags and assisted with printing name cards that I had simply run out of time to complete. Those seemingly small tasks made a huge difference and removed an incredible amount of stress during the final days leading up to the event. One thing that truly stood out was her use of technology and organizational systems. I am very detail-oriented and like everything documented, tracked, and clearly communicated. Ambar’s planning process gave me tremendous peace of mind. Through her project management tools, organized communication, and client portal on her website, I always knew exactly what had been discussed, what tasks were completed, what was pending, and what the next steps were. There was never any guesswork. For clients who appreciate transparency and organization, this level of tracking and accountability is invaluable. It allowed me to feel informed and in control without having to personally manage every detail. Although I had already hired a separate decorator long before I decided to bring on a Day-of Coordinator, it became clear to me that Ambar is far more than a coordinator. She has a great eye for design and décor as well. Had I met her earlier in the planning process, I would have strongly considered hiring her for both coordination and decorating services. Her creativity, attention to detail, and understanding of event aesthetics were evident throughout the entire process. Ambar is organized, proactive, calm under pressure, and genuinely invested in her clients’ success. If you have planned an event, from a baby shower to a wedding, and need someone you can trust to execute it flawlessly while protecting your vision, I highly recommend Designs With Ambar. Thank you, Ambar, for helping make my baby shower everything I hoped it would be and allowing me to actually enjoy it."See more

Michael P. says, "Hire Elsa, now! The one piece of advice I got was to hire a day of coordinator. Elsa was amazing leading up to our wedding day making sure she had everything in order. She puts together a wonderful booklet with your special day all laid out. Her detailed help on floor plans and colors was perfect. We planned the whole thing in less than 6 weeks and Elsa didn’t even flinch. Elsa was an absolute rock star coordinating everything from setup to ceremony to breakdown and we had to set up everything from the silverware to the palm trees! Elsa - we are forever grateful to you for making our day PERFECT!"See more

Laurie D. says, "I hired Annjoyable Moments in the spring of 2023 to manage a large conference event. Our experience with her and her team was wonderful and key to a smooth multi-day conference. Ann Marie has the talent to get things done and get people where they need to be all while being positive, calm and fun to be around. The many moving parts of a large conference can sometimes create “hiccups”, but none of these things were noticed by our attendees due to the expertise, quick-thinking and customer service provided by Ann Marie’s team. I highly recommend Ann Marie for any event, corporate or private. She will make sure the experience is seamless and absolutely enjoyable for all."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.
