How does an event planning business make money?

Planners charge a flat fee, a percentage of the event budget, or hourly rates, often packaged as full planning, partial planning or day-of coordination. Some also earn from design, rentals or decor. Contracts and deposits protect the planner when events change or cancel.

Should I plan weddings or corporate events?

Weddings and private parties sell to individuals and are often seasonal, while corporate events sell to companies and conferences. Many planners pick one niche to start so their marketing is clear. Videos here cover both paths.
