Lazo’s picks: wedding planners in Philadelphia
12 picks · read 2026-10-12We read the website of every Philadelphia wedding planner listed on Lazo (159 listings, 123 sites reachable) and set aside the ones that are not really in the wedding business: venues, DJ companies and a salon that showed up under planning, a photo and video studio that also sells planning, a duplicate listing, and a site that was only a menu. What is left is a shortlist of vendors who say clearly what they do, show their work, and tell you how they work. Verified Lazo vendors come first. Nobody paid to be here, and this is not a ranking: Lazo ranks only on reviews from couples who booked.

Wedding Planners in Philadelphia: questions couples ask
When is wedding season in Philadelphia?
Peak season in Philadelphia runs May to June and September to October. Late spring and fall are peak; summers are hot and humid and winters cold.
How far ahead should we book a wedding planner in Philadelphia?
Plan on 12-18 months out for a peak-season Saturday. A wedding planner can only take one wedding a day, so popular dates go first.
How much does a wedding planner cost in Philadelphia?
Most couples spend $800-$4,500+. Lazo does not yet hold verified booking prices for Philadelphia, so treat this as a national range and ask each wedding planner for their packages.
What time is sunset for a September wedding in Philadelphia?
Around 7:09 PM on September 15, with golden hour from about 6:33 PM. For portraits in that light, a ceremony near 4:24 PM works.
How do we get a marriage license in Pennsylvania?
Apply with the Register of Wills / Clerk of Orphans' Court. The fee is $40-$90 and there is a 3-day waiting period. The license is valid for 60 days, and no witnesses are needed.
