Comparing wedding planner prices in Guelph

Compare the work behind each starting fee. Wedding coordination with The Maple Events starts at $1,995 CAD; full planning for one day starts at $5,995 CAD. These are service fees, not your total wedding budget. Before comparing proposals, check:

  • When the handover begins: our coordination scope starts in the final month.
  • The included event-day hours: coordination includes up to eight.
  • Who prepares the timeline and confirms vendor arrangements.
  • Whether rehearsal, extra staff and teardown are separate: we quote these separately for coordination.
  • Whether full planning includes venue and vendor sourcing, budget and design direction.
  • Which supplier costs, travel, additional hours and applicable taxes are separate.

Ask for hours, staffing, responsibilities and exclusions in writing. A lower headline fee may cover a different amount of work. Your proposal confirms the scope and total before booking.

Do you plan multi-day weddings and large events?

Multi-day weddings, festivals and large productions need a custom plan. Send the number of events, dates, locations and support required so we can discuss a suitable scope.

How are deposits and payment dates confirmed?

Your written proposal and booking agreement confirm the deposit, payment schedule, cancellation terms and any separately quoted costs before you book. Sending an enquiry does not reserve a date.

Do you charge travel to Kitchener-Waterloo or Cambridge?

Travel is confirmed in your written proposal based on the location, schedule and staffing required. Do not assume it is included in a starting fee; share each venue address when requesting a quote.

How far ahead should I enquire?

Enquire when you have a preferred date or a few date options, even if your venue is not booked. We will discuss availability and the planning scope. A date is reserved only when the booking arrangements are agreed.

Can you work with suppliers I have already booked?

Yes. Share your existing bookings and the work still needed. We can discuss the coordination responsibilities in your proposal.
