Prince Pellman Group LLC

28/01/2025

In these times of uncertainty and fear, we want to make it crystal clear: Prince Pellman Group is and always will be a loud and proud Q***r and ally-owned business. We stand against hate of any kind and remain a safe, welcoming space for all—whether you’re a couple searching for someone to help bring your love story to life or simply looking for reassurance and support.

This industry is built on love, but too many are silent when it comes to standing with the communities who are under attack. We refuse to be silent. We refuse to profit off love while failing to support the people behind it.

Prince Pellman Group proudly and unapologetically accepts *any and all love*. We stand firmly alongside our Trans siblings and the entire LGBTQIA+ community—because it’s not just business; it’s about morals, integrity, and showing up when it matters most.

Love wins here. Always has, always will.

As we head into our annual PPG Retreat weekend to regroup, refocus and prepare our 2025 couples into wedded bliss we wanted to share a few words!

It’s hard to believe that five years ago, Prince Pellman Group was just a dream. Today, it’s a thriving business built on love, passion, and a relentless commitment to making sure our couples feel their absolute best — not only on their wedding day but in every precious moment leading up to it.

We couldn’t have done it without our incredible team, whose dedication and talent drive everything we do. To our cherished vendors, venues, and colleagues in the wedding industry — thank you for being true partners in creating magic. Every detail, every moment, every “I do” wouldn’t be possible without you.

To our friends and family, your support means the world. Every share, referral, and mention has helped us grow beyond what we could have imagined. And most importantly, to our past, present, and future couples — THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts for trusting us with your most unforgettable day. Your love stories are why we do what we do, and we are beyond honored to be a part of your journey.

Here’s to even more love, magic, and perfect moments to come! 💍💫

Responding to a recent post from a MOB who asked the following:

“MOB here, my daughter recently got engaged and wants to get married in the Hudson Valley, are there any venues that don’t charge the 22% service fee?”

As a wedding planner AND the recent MOB for three daughters who all got married within the last three years (I am exhausted phew 🤣) this is a great question!

Not all venues charge this but honestly I’d be a tad worried if they didn’t. Typically most do charge this and after planning hundreds of weddings I have found the service fee covers the following:

✅administrative efforts such as event setup, planning assistance and communication with the client and vendors

✅general expenses like maintaining the venue, utilities, or staffing for the event

✅Liability Insurance to cover the venue’s insurance and legal protections.

✅ Captain/ maître d’ which includes compensation for managers or coordinators who ensure your event runs smoothly

✅linen services, janitorial services, groundskeeper

There are many more and as I have not owned or operated my own venue I am undoubtedly missing the mark on many more

I hope this is somewhat helpful
