Collaboration & Fees

Transparent by design.

AEVA does not sell fixed packages. We are an intermediary local presence in Montenegro: we represent you, introduce trusted partners, negotiate on your behalf and coordinate on the ground. Our compensation is structured around that role — clearly, in writing, before anything begins.

We do not own venues, kitchens or banquet equipment. Everything we arrange comes from carefully selected external partners.

How We Charge

Two simple components.

Every engagement is documented in a short letter of agreement before work begins. There are no hidden margins, no undisclosed referral fees and no markups on partner invoices.

01

Coordination fee

Approximately 10% of the total project

A single, transparent coordination fee — usually around ten percent of the total project value, adjusted for scale and complexity. It covers our time, our representation of you in Montenegro, partner sourcing, negotiation, contract review and full on-the-ground coordination from preparation through to the day itself.

02

Partner invoices, at cost

Venues · catering · florals · transport · photography

Venues, catering, florals, music, sound, transport, photography and accommodation are invoiced directly by the partner or passed through at the negotiated price, with no markup from AEVA. Where partners offer us a professional discount, the saving is passed on to you in full.

Initial retainer

A small refundable retainer secures planning time and confirms scope. Deducted from the final coordination fee.

Staged payments

Partner invoices are paid directly by you, on the partner's own terms, with full visibility.

Clear scope

Anything outside the original scope is discussed and approved in writing before it is added.

What's Included

The coordination fee, in detail.

In practice, this is the work that absorbs most of an international client's stress. We carry it locally so you do not have to.

Typical Formats

Shapes a celebration tends to take.

These are reference shapes, not packages. The final scope, the partners and the budget are always defined together with you.

01

up to ~100 guests

Family & Friends Celebration

A warm coastal or estate celebration with the people who matter most. We handle introductions, venue selection and on-site coordination; the rest is shaped around your taste rather than a predefined package.

02

up to ~20 guests

Intimate Wedding

A small, deliberate ceremony at a private villa, beach or medieval setting. Ceremony, photographer, decoration and dinner — quietly arranged, kept personal, almost residential in feel.

03

100+ guests

Premium Celebration

A larger celebration at one of Montenegro's flagship addresses — a seaside resort, marina hotel or historic fortress. Coordinated kitchens, entertainment and a multi-day program for guests arriving from abroad.

04

for two

Private Elopement

Vows exchanged against the Adriatic or in the mountains. A boutique stay, a private dinner, a photographer for a few hours. Nothing more than the moment requires.

05

by definition

Bespoke

Anniversaries, milestone celebrations, corporate retreats, multi-day private programs. Shaped from a conversation, not a template.

Our Commitment

No hidden margins. No surprise invoices. No outsourced communication.
