It usually comes after the noun it describes, emphasizing that the noun has the quality of being planned: 'la boda planeada' (the planned wedding).

Frequently Asked Questions
When does 'planeado' change its ending (o/a/os/as)?
'Planeado' only changes its ending when it is used as an adjective (Definition 1), meaning it is describing a noun: 'la ruta planeada' (the planned route). When used with the helper verb 'haber' (Definition 2), it always stays 'planeado': 'Hemos planeado un viaje.'
Is 'planeado' related to the English word 'airplane'?
Yes, indirectly. Both words share the root meaning 'flat' or 'level.' An 'airplane' is a plane that moves through the air. The verb 'planear' can also mean 'to glide' (like an airplane or a bird), which is a less common but related meaning.
