Well try a research your market, check prices that other event charge even the prices of those you have worked with. Also research what companies and individuals are willing to pay for these kinda of services. Then u work out your stuff from there. Check out equipments prices, if u have to employ any one, rent stuff from other companies etc.
I hope this helps.
It is great that you have the true passion of being an event planner. But being an event planner is more than designing a floor plan, scoping out locations, and purchasing items to complete the look. You will have to work hand in hand with the bride (bridezilla or not). Think of it this way, why would the bride hire 2 people? One is to do what you want to do and another one is to do the ugly duties such as organizing her rehearsal dinner, hair appointments, etc. How much you will do for the bride depends on how much the bride is paying you. Event planner can charge hourly or they can charge per event. Being an event planner is not as glamorous as some people think. It has a lot of work and headache. If you don't have the patient nor the commitment to do it then I suggest you to forget about it. But if you really really want to do it then I suggest you to work at a Hotel as a Social Catering Manager. They help people with Weddings, Birthdays, Corporate Holiday Party, etc. I think you might be interested doing that. It has a lot of work too though. You might be working 5 days this week and then 7 days next week. You will have to be there whenever you have an event, whether it is on your day off or not. Good luck on your search!
I have read several books at the library on this. From what the books say, the answer is yes, they are in demand and you can make a good profit from it. I would check with your local library on "home business" books or ask your librarian about party planner books.
I would think event planning would be a better job, because interior decorating is considered a luxury that many people would not be willing to spend money on with the economy the way it is. According to the Occupational Outlook Handbook, employment is expected to grow faster than average for convention and meeting planners.
Try majoring in Hospitality or Hotel Management.
speak to the boss and tell him/her that you are interested in doing the event planning, etc. and would like more responsibility in this area. see if he/she would be willing to create a position for you (even if it's only a junior position). then, gradually work your way up.
or, you could do freelance event planning work on the side. set up an ad on a classified service such as craigslist offering your services. once you build up your clientele, you business should expand as "word-of-mouth" is the best marketing.
good luck!
You need education for that? Well, maybe an business degree I think, like an MBA or something. But that's overkill!
Event planning is a competitive market where not a lot of people is disposed to share information. That is because you can definitely get good dollars.
There are three elements you have to assess when thinking about working in event planning:
- your experience
- your studies
- your motivation
Assess what are your strengths and weaknesses in these three areas and find ways to star in all of them.
If you are starting your career I strongly suggest you get a bit of experience in back office or volunteer in an event, just to understand the whole process. After that you'll be more aware of what you like.
It is very important for you to specialize in one thing at the beginning and then diversify in compatible areas where you can adapt your acquired knowledge.

go work for somebody then learn to do it yourself
Yes, you can have an event planning company that donates some of its proceeds to a non-profit organization that you also start. The event planning company can be the primary source of finances for the non-profit, which will use all of the revenue it acquires to have programming for helping people in Africa.
Mixing the two into one company might be confusing and hard for consumers and also for givers to understand. Keeping them legally separate, but bound by your own force, will make it an easier and more predictable set of businesses in the minds of the consumers.
