Wedding Planning Timeline Steps

1. Collect the Money

Knowing how much the bride and groom (B & G) have decided to spend on their wedding and honeymoon is important because it helps you set up a budget as well as begin locating wedding service providers within their price range.

In addition, it also helps you set your fee since most wedding planners earn at least 10% of the total wedding budget. Therefore once you know how much they are willing to spend on the wedding, you can then agree on how much you will be paid and when you will be paid. For instance you can ask for an upfront deposit and then agree on when the balance will be paid.
To help the B & G collect the money for their wedding, you can:
1. Advice them to pool their wedding savings into a separate account from their daily expenses
2. Ask them if they want to politely solicit additional funds from their parents and other well wishers.
