The Old (Expensive) Wedding Planning Method

In the past, I’ve told couples with $4000 or less to spend on a wedding planner to DIY it, then hire a day of coordinator. It’s not ideal because you’re left with a whole new project management job that you don’t get to hand off until 30 days before the wedding. But I recommended this because most wedding planning companies charge $6000 or more to plan weddings. I used to do this too. Wedding planning is expensive because most wedding planners take a manual, repetitive and time-consuming process to plan your wedding. So you’re spending premium per hour of work on your wedding.

But as a former Computer Engineer & process specialist with over 15 years of wedding planning experience, I’ve greatly streamlined our team’s approach to wedding planning, and now we can give you the same support faster than anyone else, and at a significantly lower price point than traditional wedding planning.

This is perfect for the modern-day couple, who loves the self-checkout line and wants the most effective way of getting things done, without unnecessary Zoom calls and endless emails.

The New (Affordable) Way of Wedding Planning

The new way of planning weddings saves time, cost and the annoyance of endless emails, and mandatory Zoom calls to get anything done. Here’s how it works:

As soon as you pay your wedding planning deposit, you get access to your intake form where you answer a few questions allowing us to get started on finding your perfect venue in your budget. We’ll send a few options, ranked and with details to consider within 5 business days or less.
Once your venue is booked, you’ll complete a second questionnaire to let us know a few more preferences, and within 5 business days you’ll receive your complete wedding architecture
- A complete vendor recommendation list – with multiple options per category within your budget and that meet your style and needs along with the packages/number of hours/staff needed for your day.
- A detailed wedding day timeline covering hair and makeup through venue cleanup, to show how the day will flow and so you can see how our recommended vendor packages fit in your wedding day
- A complete wedding planning dashboard complete with tasks for the remainder of your wedding planning journey
- You also will have unlimited email support, and access to 2 Zoom calls every month
Once your vendors are booked, you’ll complete one final form, sharing your final nuanced wedding preferences, and anything you changed your mind on. We will refine your wedding day timeline, final details task-list and draft custom emails to your vendors reconfirming details and letting them know what changes are need if any.
Your day of coordination team will lead your final wedding walkthrough (usually 21-45 days prior to your wedding), your wedding rehearsal and your wedding day.

All of the above for just $3499

This starting rate is for 1 day weddings with under 220 guests, planned in under 18 months

What is Included for $3499

This is NOT day of coordination. While many wedding services in this price range focus primarily on month-of or day-of coordination, Wedded Details begins working with couples early in the planning process—in many cases before a single vendor has been booked. With us, you have the right guidance early enough to keep you on track and on budget.
