Event planners make a wide variety of earnings, depending on the type of event, the location and the regularity of work. You can expect to average twenty to thirty dollars an hour in Las Vegas, or much less in smaller cities.

Most event planners put together their own pricing guide to present to clients before begining a job. It is typically a percentage of the total cost of the event. Or, event planners that work for catering halls or hotels typically make between $35,000 and $60,000 plus commissions.

Much of your rate probably depends on what kind of event you are planning. It also depends on your clientele - are they upscale, middle class, etc. I read that the national average in 2007 for an event planner was between 45,000 and 63,000 per year. Providing high quality work and products will allow you in increase your rate.
