Okay, let’s tackle this. So Amy has 25 years of experience in event planning and ownership, which is impressive. She’s also got a degree from the University of Connecticut, which adds some weight. However, her experience is more on the smaller side, and she’s not in a high-demand location like New York or Los Angeles. Considering these factors, I’m estimating her hourly rate to be around $75, which is on the lower end of the scale for an event planner with her experience and education. Some event planners in similar roles can charge upwards of $100-$150 per hour, but Amy’s smaller company and location put her rate at the lower end of the spectrum.
