Event Planner invoice FAQ

Should event planners charge GST?

If your annual turnover exceeds $75,000 — yes. Most established planners are GST-registered.

How do I bill weddings?

Three-stage payment: 30% on booking (non-refundable), 50% one month before, 20% after the event. Final invoice reconciles any extras.

Should I pass vendor costs through to clients?

Yes — either bill them directly to the client, or list them at cost on your invoice with no markup. Mark up only if your engagement letter allows.

What payment terms work?

Multi-stage upfront for weddings/large events. Net 14-30 for corporate clients.
