We'll talk about all your event requirements before giving a quote since the fees charged will depend on the scale and nature of the event, the complexity of planning, and our level of involvement. We’ll keep in contact with you regarding the time and hours spent and liaise with you on specific items, but we’ll also work within your budget and plan accordingly. You’ll never be charged more than we agree, and there will be no hidden extras or surprises.
Of course! We’d never dream of planning your event without ensuring we know what you’re looking for and how to proceed. Fill out the contact form to start the process, and we will contact you with the next steps for scheduling an appointment.
As long as it’s legal and doesn’t compromise the integrity and morals of our team, we’re here to help. We enjoy planning weddings, anniversaries, theater, and gallery openings; you name it! We can do it.
The short answer is no. However, we have worked hard to develop these relationships, and we can guarantee the quality of the service from the vendors we suggest. However, we are more than happy to work with any vendors you prefer, so long as they are licensed in their field and carry proper insurance.
Although it is great to have an on-site coordinator for the day of your event, we will help guide you from the beginning of your planning to the day of your event. For those of you who still need an on-site coordinator, we will help if you desire.
This is best answered when we have our first consultation with you. Once we know what you would like your event to be like, we can make a schedule. At the time of the consultation, we will come up with an estimate for the total number of meetings and hours needed to help you stick to your budget.
This all depends on the type and size of the event you are planning. Our best advice is to start the conversation when you’ve set your date (we recommend 8-12 months in advance where possible). All in all, always start the planning early. It’s better to have some breathing room as the event approaches. That being said, we’re comfortable working in a last-minute, high-stress environment, so if you need to plan a last-minute event, don’t hesitate to call. We’ll let you know if it’s impossible, but our attitude is “there is always a way.
We recommend a consultation to ensure that we’re the right fit. We are very flexible and here to meet your needs, so we are confident we will find a positive way to work together.
Absolutely! While weddings are a special focus of The Crowder Concept, we also provide event planning and coordination services for a variety of celebrations and special events.
Whether you’re planning a birthday celebration, anniversary, corporate gathering, shower, private dinner, milestone event, or something unique, we’d love to hear what you have in mind.
Non-wedding events are considered on a case-by-case basis based on the event type, scope, location, and planning needs.
