Our family Christmas dinner, catered by Simply Elegant, was excellent! It was one of the best I’ve had - in terms of quality of food and creative recipes (sorry to any family members reading this who may have cooked a Christmas dinner in the past!). Our group was small but Simply Elegant was prompt in responding to our requests. I’m not one prone to writing a gushy review, but Simply Elegant deserves one! Thank you for making our dinner special.

We had a very small family celebration for our son’s graduation in our backyard. The meal Simply Elegant provided was superb. And I mean that. Working with them setting it up was easy! When Chef Jeremy arrived, with a completely professional preparation of food to be cooked in my kitchen, I was able to relax and enjoyed the evening. The steak - it was so tender! My son said he could have used his spoon to cut it. Highly recommend them.

I called Simply one Saturday afternoon, in desperate need of a caterer for a Tuesday meeting. Peter created a menu, presented, and delivered 100% on time! I have used them two or three times since, and each time is exactly the same! Professional, prompt and perfect! I don't look for anyone else anymore. I always call SE!

Simply Elegant did a fantastic job with the florals at our gala - they were open to our outside-of-the-box ideas and make our vision a reality. They were prompt and friendly while setting up, and even picked everything up again afterwards. Thanks, Jade!

Frequently asked questions

What is a wedding planner?
A wedding planner is a professional who assists couples in planning and coordinating their wedding day. They work closely with the couple to ensure that every aspect of the wedding, from the venue and vendors to the decor and timeline, is executed smoothly and by the couple’s vision. In Canada, wedding planners may be wedding coordinators or bridal consultants.

How much will my wedding planning cost?
The cost of wedding planning in Canada can vary widely depending on the level of service required and the region in which you live. On average, a full-service wedding planner can cost anywhere from $2,500 to $5,000, while a partial planner or day-of coordinator may cost between $1,000 to $2,500.

Do I need a wedding planner?
Whether or not you need a wedding planner in Canada depends on your preferences, budget, and the complexity of your wedding. A wedding planner can offer valuable expertise, guidance, and support throughout the planning process, which can be particularly helpful if you have a busy schedule or are feeling overwhelmed. Also, a wedding planner can help you stay on track with your budget and negotiate with vendors for you.

How can I save money while working with a wedding planner?
To save money when working with a wedding planner in Canada, consider a partial planning package or day-of coordination, which typically costs less than full-service planning. You can also ask your planner to recommend vendors who offer affordable options or negotiate with vendors on your behalf to get the best possible prices. Additionally, be clear about your budget from the start and work with your planner to prioritize the most important aspects of your wedding. Finally, consider DIY projects or repurposing decor from other events to save on costs.

Is a contract with a wedding planner necessary?
In Canada, it is highly recommended to have a contract with a wedding planner to protect both parties and ensure that everyone is on the same page. A contract should outline the scope of work, services provided, payment schedule, cancellation and refund policy, and other essential details or expectations. It’s important to read and understand the contract thoroughly before signing and to address any questions or concerns with your wedding planner. A contract can provide peace of mind and help ensure a successful and stress-free planning process.
