The fine print

How we work it out

Our fee

Each package has a starting price for 50 guests, plus a little per guest above that. Spring and fall add about 10%, winter takes about 10% off. Add-ons are added as fixed fees.

Everything else

Venue, food, flowers, music and the rest: about $285 a guest for a Charleston wedding in summer, $210 for corporate events and $175 for private parties, adjusted for the season.

The range

Real budgets vary with taste and the date. We show a range from a little below to a fair bit above the middle, because surprises usually go up, not down.
