1. Kansas-specific invoice requirements
- Sales tax line: 6.50% state rate. Most services rendered in Kansas are exempt from sales tax — but materials, parts, and tangible goods are not. State 6.5%; combined commonly 8-11%.
- Late-fee cap: Kansas statute Kan. Stat. §16-201 caps interest on unpaid invoices at 1.5% per month. Spell out the rate in writing on every invoice and in your contract — courts won't enforce undisclosed fees.
- Right-to-cancel notice: Customers in Kansas get 72-hour cancellation rights on certain home-services contracts. Disclose this in your terms.
2. Event Planner line items + standard terms
Every event planner invoice in Kansas should itemize work clearly. Standard event planners use Net 30 terms with a 50% deposit required upfront.
- Planning package — billed by flat.
- Day-of coordination — billed by flat.
- Hourly consulting — billed by hour (~$125 default).
- Vendor management — % of spend — billed by pct (~$15 default).
3. Event Planner licensing in Kansas
No license required. Liability insurance and venue COI requirements are standard.
4. Send and follow up
Send the invoice the same day work completes. Use software that records open events and offers a one-click online payment so you don't need to chase a check by mail. Kansas customers expect digital payment options today — accepting card and ACH typically reduces days-to-paid by 30–50%.
