If you’ve decided to get married in Namibia, one of the first things on your mind will be planning your special day. You might not know where to start or what resources are available for brides who wish to plan their own wedding.

What does a wedding planner do?

A wedding planner is a professional who assists with the design, planning and management of a client’s wedding. The term “wedding planner” is often used interchangeably with “event planner”, although some planners have training in event planning. In addition to being able to plan a wedding or other special occasion, they also provide advice on everything from selecting menu options to finding venues and hiring vendors.

How much do wedding planners charge

Generally speaking, prices for a full-service wedding planner will cost anywhere between $5,000 – $20,000 depending on various factors such as location (urban vs rural), a number of events organized per year (not all planners do more than one event per month) and how many hours are needed throughout the process (full day appointments generally cost more).

Wedding planners are often used by couples who work long hours and have little spare time available for sourcing and managing wedding venues. A planner can help you find the right venue, design your wedding, plan your wedding, manage your wedding and budget for it.
