About Essential Werkz
About Essential Werkz
Essential Werkz is an event planning company operating islandwide from its office at Kallang Pudding Road. The listing has been verified by KakiList, though no ACRA registration has been confirmed. The company holds a 3.4/5 rating across 20 Google reviews — a borderline sample that warrants scrutiny before committing to a booking.
Enquiries typically begin with the event date, venue, and headcount, followed by a scope and theme consultation to establish whether a full-package or à la carte arrangement suits the brief. Lead times vary considerably by event type: weddings and large corporate functions benefit from 6–12 months of planning runway, while birthday parties and baby full-month celebrations can often be turned around in 6–12 weeks. Essential Werkz can be reached by phone or through the enquiry form on the listing. Confirm the deposit structure (typically 30–50% on signing), the balance due date, deliverables in writing, and whether the company carries public liability insurance — particularly important for setups at HDB void decks, condo function rooms, or hotel venues where the venue manager may require a certificate before allowing access.
To get started, contact Essential Werkz directly by phone or form with your event date, venue, expected headcount, and a brief description of the occasion to request a proposal and confirm availability.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does Essential Werkz charge?›
Event planning fees depend heavily on the scope, scale, and type of occasion. As a general reference, full event planning in Singapore (excluding venue and F&B) typically runs S$5,000–25,000+ for weddings and large corporate events. For smaller occasions such as birthday parties or baby full-month celebrations, entertainment and décor packages usually range from S$300–2,500 depending on the brief. For Essential Werkz specifically, pricing is package-based. Confirm the deposit required on signing (typically 30–50%), the balance payment schedule, what hours of coverage or deliverables are included, whether travel charges apply for non-central venues, and whether GST is added on top.

How far ahead should I book Essential Werkz?›
Lead time depends on the event type. For weddings, 6–12 months ahead is advisable — popular Saturdays in March, April, October, and November book out earliest, and the planning runway is needed to coordinate vendors, venues, and logistics. For corporate events and large celebrations, 3–6 months ahead is a reasonable buffer. For birthday parties, baby full-month or 100-day celebrations, and similar events, 6–12 weeks is typically sufficient for in-demand planners and decorators. Confirm whether your preferred date is available early, as a deposit is usually required to secure it. Ask about wet-weather or backup contingency if any part of the event is planned outdoors.
What does the deposit cover and what is the cancellation policy at Essential Werkz?›
The Singapore industry standard for event planning is a 30–50% deposit on signing, with the balance due 1–2 weeks before the event. Confirm in writing what the deposit covers — typically the date hold and any planning hours or concept work undertaken before the event. Deposits are generally non-refundable but may be transferable to a rescheduled date. Clarify the rescheduling policy in the event of unforeseen circumstances such as a weather disruption or venue cancellation. Also ask about public liability insurance, especially for setups at HDB void decks, condo function rooms, or hotel venues where the venue may require a copy of the certificate before permitting access. Lock in all of this in a written contract before paying anything.
