How much does it cost to plan a party?

It depends on the size and style of the event. We don't have a set price list as we know most people want something different and special.

As a guide, if you want to host say 50 guests at home for your 40th birthday party - prices can vary widely depending on your style, priorities, and whether you’re hiring help or doing a bit of DIY - but we recommend you work on around $200 per person if your looking for a chic and elegant party. This amount could include food, drinks, wait & bar staff, furniture hire, set up and styling, party planner and entertainment.

If you're after a low key, mostly DIY party, then we suggest you budget for around $100 per person.

Unsure? We offer customised packages to suit different budgets. Contact us for a personalised quote!
