Every Saxon Manor wedding comes with a planner on site, built into the price you're quoted.

Saxon Manor is a family owned business, and weddings are the only thing it does. Every package for the Barn, Garden Room, and BoHo includes design and coordination as a standard line item, not an optional add-on priced separately later. The person planning your day works here, knows the rooms, knows the chefs, and has run weddings in this exact space before. That is different from hiring an independent planner who then has to learn a venue they have never worked in.

This matters because a lot of couples assume they need to hire outside planning help to get a coordinated wedding day. At Saxon Manor, that coordination is already staffed and already priced into the $15,000-$21,000 range for the Barn and Garden Room, or the $9,500-$12,500 range for BoHo. You are not paying a venue fee and then shopping for a planner on top of it. The quote you get is the wedding you get, coordination included.

The three-room Bridal Suites on site are part of this same setup. They give the wedding party a dedicated space to get ready in on the day, steps from the ceremony location, with the coordination team already in the building rather than arriving separately and getting oriented for the first time that morning.

On-site coordination at Saxon Manor is design and day-of execution for the wedding itself, tied to the venue and the vendors already included in your package. It is not a full-service outside planner who sources vendors from scratch across the whole region, builds a wedding from zero with no venue chosen yet, or manages a multi-venue weekend spanning rehearsal dinner locations off site. If your rehearsal dinner or brunch is happening in the BoHo space, that is priced separately in the $2,000-$3,000 range and coordinated the same way as the wedding itself.

Some couples still choose to bring in an outside planner for reasons that have nothing to do with the venue, like managing family dynamics or handling something particular to their situation. That is fine. Saxon Manor’s in-house team will work alongside them, but the included coordination does not require it. Most couples booking here do not hire outside help because the coordination already built into the package covers the actual wedding day.

If you are trying to figure out what a planner versus a day-of coordinator versus a venue’s included staff actually do, that distinction matters more before you sign than after. The honest version: at Saxon Manor, the venue’s staff and the planning staff are the same people, which is why there is no separate planner fee to budget for.
