Our process involves detailed questions, as well as consultations which will help guide you in the decision of finding the perfect event planner that is just right for you. If for whatever reason, The Party Girl Co. just isnt it, we would be happy to refer you to other reputable event planners.
Q: WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN EVENT PLANNING, EVENT STYLING AND EVENT COORDINATION?
A: Event Planner-An event or wedding planner is responsible for - you guessed it - planning the wedding or event. Planning implies a full logistical process of careful preparation over a period of time and encompasses much more than merely directing a ceremony or orchestrating details on the day of the wedding. If you're someone looking into event day management for your wedding, then you shouldn't actually be looking into wedding planners, as their services as much more comprehensive than what you seek.
Event Coordinator- An event or wedding coordinator is not held responsible for planning the wedding. Instead they're merely responsible for coordinating details. This person is someone you might hire to oversee the wedding day or provide "month-of coordination services" to help execute details that have already been previously planned.
Event Stylist- As the event stylist, we create the design and bring in all of the decor concept to life.
Q: WHAT IS YOUR CANCELLATION POLICY?
A: In the event that a confirmed quote/ event should need to be cancelled, we require formal written notice (email is fine) advising of the cancellation.
The following cancellation terms apply to all bookings:
· Cancellation within 30 days prior to event date will forfeit the non-refundable retainer fee.
· Cancellation 29-14 days prior to event date will forfeit 50% of the quote.
· Cancellation within 14 days prior to event date will forfeit 100% of the total quote.
If written notice is not received, full payment of invoice is expected.
Q: HOW MUCH DOES EVENT STYLING COST?
A: There really isnt a clear cut answer to this question. Clients needs, tastes and budgets vary widely.
Q: DO YOU REQUIRE A DEPOSIT OR RETAINER?
A: Once you have decided that The Party Girl Co. is a good fit, we will send you a proposal of services that outline what we spoke about at the consultation. During this time a retainer fee is required to secure your date. The proposal will also include the payment plan for deposit and balance.
Q: MY VENUE OFFERS AN ON-SITE COORDINATOR FOR THE DAY OF THE EVENT. DO I STILL NEED TO HIRE AN EVENT PLANNER?
A: Your coordinator works for the venue, so their main focus is what they do best and ensuring that everything runs smoothly for your event from a venue side. That’s where we come in to assist you to heighten your guests experience with engaging and inspiration styling that will both set the tone and mood of your event.
