If you DIY something like this, you can break it down pretty simply: Pavers + base materials: $800–$2,500
Fire pit (kit or stone): $200–$800
Soil, mulch, edging: $200–$600
Plants (big variable): $300–$1,500
So realistically you're looking at ~$1,500 to $4,500 DIY, depending on how premium you go with materials and plants. If you hire it out, that can easily double or triple. Best way to save: build the structure first (path + fire pit), then add plants over time. That's where most people overspend upfront.
