Okay, let’s tackle this. So Kelly has 14 years of experience in event and wedding planning, which is a niche field. Location is Moorpark, California, which is a high-cost area. Skills like floral design, social media, and event planning are in demand. However, the rate for event planners is generally lower than for software developers or finance professionals. Considering the location and industry, I'll estimate a lower rate. Event planners in the US average $30-$50 per hour, but this can vary widely depending on experience and location. Since Kelly has 14 years of experience, she's likely at the higher end of this range. However, I'll stick with a conservative estimate of $45 per hour, which is lower than average but still reflects her expertise and location.
