11 priced vendors
From the "starting at" price each vendor publishes on their own website or their Lazo profile, read 2026-11-02. A starting price is the smallest package they sell, not what a wedding ends up costing: nationally most couples pay $800-$4,500+ once hours, add-ons and the date are in.
Sioux Falls against the rest of the country
The median published starting price for a wedding planner in Sioux Falls is $1,750, about 30% below the national median of $2,500. Lower starting prices usually mean smaller base packages rather than cheaper weddings, so compare what each package includes before comparing the number.
What moves the price
- Scope, not hours
- The gap between coordination and full planning is months of work, not a longer wedding day. Be honest about which one you actually want.
- Guest count and complexity
- A 200-guest wedding across two venues with a weekend of events is a different job from 80 guests in one room.
- Percentage-based pricing
- Common on larger weddings and worth understanding: at 12% of spend, a $90,000 wedding means a $10,800 fee. Ask whether the percentage applies to the whole budget including the venue.
- Design services
- Styling, mood boards, renderings and installation oversight are frequently a separate line from planning.
