Planning fees run $25,000 to $50,000 and up, and the wedding budget tiers the site lists start at $200,000 and climb past $700,000. Both figures are printed on Emily Boziwick's Hamptons planners page. The work is Sag Harbor, East Hampton, Southampton, Westhampton, Amagansett, Montauk, the North Fork and Shelter Island. If your total budget is under $200,000, this is not your planner.
emilyboziwickevents.com/hamptons-wedding-plannersThe planning fee range is published, and so is a second scale. Separately, the site lists the wedding budget tiers it works within, beginning at $200,000 and up and running to $700,000 and up. Putting the two together, the planning fee is a defined slice of a very large total, and the site does not pretend otherwise. Ask where a specific wedding lands and whether the fee is flat or a percentage.
Full Wedding Day Planning covers venue scouting, budget management, vendor selection, contract and communication management, the timeline, layout and floor plans, a mood board, phone and email access and a digital portal. The Wedding Weekend Package stretches the same service across welcome gatherings through the farewell brunch. Multi-day weekends and design-led planning are the listed specialties, and the Weekend package is where the Montauk or Shelter Island wedding with guests flying in belongs.
The service list is specific: Sag Harbor, East Hampton, Southampton, Westhampton, Amagansett, Montauk, the North Fork and Shelter Island. No portfolio venues were named on the page we read, so ask for a recent East End weekend to look at. The profile of the client is on the page: a budget above $200,000, a multi-day program, design-led planning. No month-of tier is listed.
Every package, from Month Of up to Full Design and Planning, includes a lead planner plus an assistant on the wedding day.
Two months out is when the planner steps in on the tier Rita Ellis calls 2-Month Management, a middle rung between day-of coordination and partial planning.
10 hours is the day-of cap on every tier below Full Service, and Partial Planning does not begin until three months before the wedding.
