Frequently Asked Questions

Here are some of the most frequently asked questions from our past clients. Can't find an answer to your question here? Just send us an email, and we'll be happy to help.

Do I need a day-of wedding coordinator or a full-service planner?

It all depends on how involved you wish to be. A day-of wedding coordinator ensures everything runs according to plan on the big day, ideal if you've already planned the details. A full-service planner walks with you from venue selection to vendor booking and design. At Events by Kae, we offer both options, so you get the support that fits your needs and timeline.

What exactly does a Nigerian wedding planner do?

A Nigerian wedding planner helps couples bring their cultural and traditional ideas to life while managing all aspects of the wedding planning process. From coordinating traditional ceremonies like the Yoruba engagement or Igbo wine-carrying to sourcing culturally aligned vendors, we ensure your event honors your roots and runs smoothly from start to finish.

How much does a wedding planner cost in New Jersey?

Pricing varies significantly based on the services being provided and the scope of the event. For example, day-of coordination in New Jersey typically starts around $1,500, while full-service planning can range from $4,000 to $10,000 or even more for larger, more upscale events. We provide custom quotes based on your wedding size, location, and complexity. Just contact us to request a quote for your wedding.

Can you help plan a Nigerian-American fusion wedding?

Yes, that is one of our specialties. We work with couples who want to blend Nigerian traditions with American wedding customs in a way that feels intentional and elegant. Whether it’s incorporating a second outfit change, managing two ceremony types, or balancing family expectations, we guide you through every detail with cultural sensitivity and care.

Can you help us find the perfect New Jersey wedding venue?

Yes. We work closely with couples to find New Jersey wedding venues that match their style, guest count, and budget. Whether you're dreaming of a classic ballroom, a scenic outdoor space, or a venue that accommodates a traditional Nigerian ceremony, we’ll present options that align with your vision and help you navigate tours, questions, and bookings with ease.

Do you work with venues outside New Jersey?

Absolutely. While we are based in New Jersey, we also plan weddings in New York, Connecticut, and surrounding areas. We’re happy to travel to your chosen venue to ensure your day runs beautifully, no matter the location.
