Okay, let’s tackle this. So Alfred has 37 years of experience as an event planner, which is a long time. Skills like event management, meeting planning, catering, and hospitality are in demand, especially in New York. However, the rate is quite low. Typically, event planners with his level of experience in a major city like New York could charge higher rates. Maybe around $200–$400 per hour? But considering the skills and experience, maybe lower. Some event planners with similar experience might average $150–$250. So I’ll estimate around $100, but this is quite a low estimate.
