    Hi Gabby, I’d love to join your lives but your lives are at 1am in my time zone! Is there anywhere I can drop you my questions for your next q&a?

    • @GabbyPinkerton

      Of course! How about on my community post whenever I promote the next live? Would that work?

    This was such a great talk, Gabby, thank you for sharing so many insights! I'm a destination planner in Spain and I see many couples expecting to pay way less than they would in the US, but honestly, at a certain level of expectations, costs build up quickly and it's rarely the bargain they were looking for. Wanted to add that I also share your opinion on the multi six-seven figures weddings that are exploited by the wedding "media", while never being transparent about costs - god, this should be a crime 😅 makes our jobs unnecessarily difficult.. I remember when every planner feared Pinterest and now I honestly hope my clients have Pinterest aspirations rather than drawing inspiration from all the outlets that portray celebrity level weddings as affordable 🫠 Rant out! Once again thank you! 🙏🏻

    • @GabbyPinkerton
      @GabbyPinkerton 9 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Ah yesss! I totally get what you’re saying and it’s true, costs do add up quickly and certainly not every destination is going to be less expensive than the US. Thank you for sharing your insight I think we’re all frustrated by the same challenges in the wedding industry 😩

    Thank you for this!!! How do you charge for multiday weddings? And do you have more content on % based pricing?

    • @GabbyPinkerton
      @GabbyPinkerton 19 วันที่ผ่านมา

      I’m happy to do a video on just % model! I’ve played around with a few things. Right now for multi-day I still have a minimum with a % of the total wedding weekend. So it’s the same concept as just 1 day except typically budgets will be bigger since it’s multiple days which means my % will be bigger.

      Thanks! It’s actually in Notion. We had someone create a whole custom planning portal on there and the timeline is a simple page with tables in it but we can move everything around really easily

      So we added up all the weddings we’ve done at Under Canvas and the average was about $86k. But like any wedding budget, it will truly depend on your guest count and what you’re prioritizing.
