Hi, I’m Duke Taber, and I’m passionate about helping people create memorable events without spending a fortune. For over three decades, I’ve served as a pastor and have been planning events of all kinds—from weddings and community gatherings to corporate fundraisers and church celebrations. Throughout my career, I’ve worked alongside pastors, event planners, and fundraising professionals, learning how to make every occasion special, meaningful, and affordable.

PlanOnAPenny.com is the result of that experience. Here, you’ll find practical tips, creative ideas, and smart strategies to plan beautiful events on a budget. Whether you’re organizing an intimate family gathering, a major corporate function, or a celebration of life, I want to show you that it’s possible to create moments that matter—without breaking the bank.

My goal is simple: to help you celebrate big, even when your budget is small.
