Services & planning fees

Edmonton event planning fees with a clear scope and honest guidance.

Every engagement begins by listening: what the event needs to accomplish, how people should feel and where experienced support will make the greatest difference. Compass works primarily on planning fees rather than vendor commissions, so recommendations stay focused on fit. The ranges below cover planning and management; venue, catering, production, decor and other third-party costs are separate.

Corporate planning
