If you're a wedding planner do you get 10% of the total wedding cost...and if so, if it is a $100,000 wedding do you refer to the account as a $10,000 account b/c that is what YOU are making or is a $100,000 account?

I'm asking because I'm writing a book. The character says, "This is a $10,000 account that I can't afford to lose" or she says "This is a $100,000 that I can't afford to lose."
meaning, does she name the account in terms of her percentage or the total

When people ask for references about the weddings you planned you tell them about the total cost not just how much your fee is. If you are used to doing weddings with a high budget you want your clients to know that you have experence in high end planning. If you specialize in low cost simple ceremonies you would want them to know that also.

I am a certified wedding planner and I charge a simple flat rate that is easily understood and written in a contract that both parties sign. I do not pressure clients to buy more because it ups MY income, to me that is not fair to the client. So you should really re-think that conversation... but for the books sake... 100K

$100K account. Lawyers don't say they've landed a multi-million $ lawsuit b/c THEY will earn millions but because the CASE involves millions.
