What do wedding planners charge in Islamabad?

Either a flat fee of Rs 2 lakh to Rs 8 lakh for full-service planning, or eight to fifteen percent of the total wedding budget. Day-of coordination alone runs Rs 75,000 to Rs 2 lakh per function set. Flat fees are easier to manage because a percentage model rises every time you upgrade a vendor.

What is the difference between full planning and day-of coordination?

Full planning starts three to six months out and covers venue selection, vendor negotiation, design, budget tracking and execution. Day-of coordination begins one to two weeks before and only manages the running order, vendor arrivals and on-site problems. If you have already booked hall, caterer and decor yourself, day-of is usually sufficient.

Do planners take commission from vendors?

Many do, and it is not automatically a problem provided it is disclosed. Ask directly whether the planner earns from your caterer, decorator or photographer, and whether their fee drops if you bring your own vendors. A planner who declines to answer that is choosing their vendor list for reasons other than your budget.

When should a planner be brought in?

Three to six months before the first function for full-service planning, ideally before the venue is confirmed so they can negotiate it. Day-of coordinators can be engaged two to four weeks out. In December and January, book earlier, as good planners cap the number of weddings they take in the same week.

Wedding Plannersin Islamabad & Rawalpindi

This desk started in Islamabad, so this is where our data runs deepest. Everything below is written for Islamabad and Rawalpindi specifically — other cities are covered, in less detail.

Planners are worth it when the wedding runs three or more functions, involves outstation guests, or the family simply does not have someone free to coordinate for six weeks. Islamabad planners typically charge either a flat fee of Rs 2 lakh to Rs 8 lakh or eight to fifteen percent of the total wedding budget, and the flat-fee model is easier to hold them to.

Full-service planning covers venue shortlisting, vendor negotiation, design direction, budget tracking and on-day execution. Day-of coordination, at Rs 75,000 to Rs 2 lakh, only handles the running order and vendor management on the function days, which suits families who have already booked everything themselves but want someone managing the timeline.

Ask how many weddings the planner is handling in your week, since December and January are compressed and a team split across three events on the same Saturday cannot be everywhere. Confirm whether vendor commissions are disclosed or retained, get the deliverables listed in the contract, and agree who has authority to approve on-day spending changes.
