A wedding planner in Montreal typically costs between $3,500 and $10,000, depending on their experience and the level of service you choose. Full-service planners, who manage everything from start to finish, are at the higher end of the range. Partial planning services or day-of coordination can cost between $1,500 and $4,500.
The average cost of a wedding in Montreal ranges from $25,000 to $40,000, depending on factors like venue, catering, and guest count. Luxury weddings or larger guest lists can push costs beyond $50,000.
We suggest earmarking about 10-15% of your wedding budget for a planner—because the bigger and more complex the wedding, the more hands (and brains) you’ll need to make it all happen seamlessly. Whether you’re going all-out with full planning, dialing it back with partial, or just need someone to boss everyone around on the big day, it’s worth every penny.
Yes, you can plan a wedding in three months, but it requires efficient organization and flexibility. Prioritizing essential elements—such as securing a venue, hiring vendors with availability, and sending invitations quickly—is key. Many wedding planners specialize in short timelines and can help coordinate everything smoothly.
