How to compare your options
Ask which tasks belong to the property manager and which belong to your coordinator before signing either contract. For a small wedding, a per-guest venue supplement can feel modest while furniture delivery and staffing retain fixed minimums. Build a full 30-person and 50-person quote to see the true difference, rather than adding only the extra meals.
FEEHQ BUDGET ILLUSTRATION
50 guests with in-house coordination
- Base venue rental for 30 guests
- $3,500
- 20 additional guests × $75
- $1,500
- In-house coordinator
- $2,500
- Illustrative fee subtotal
- $7,500
The $7,500 illustration excludes food, furniture, decor, tax and optional suites. Confirm the base headcount in your quote; an outside coordinator's price would replace the in-house coordination line.

- Which tasks does the property manager handle versus our coordinator?
- What furniture, power and weather equipment must suppliers bring?
Ask for one written total
Have the venue separate rent, required services, food and beverage minimums, service charges, tax and deposits. Confirm which payments reduce the final balance and which are extra. Request the cancellation, weather and overtime terms with the quote.
If coordination is included or required, compare its scope with a wedding coordinator or day-of coordinator before hiring additional help.
