Whether you want a Wedding Planner/Coordinator for the entire planning process or Day-of-Coordinator (DOC); here are the top 10 reasons budgeting for a planner is well worth the investment! 10. Experience: Unforeseen problems are solved without panic with an experienced planner. Because planners do weddings year round, year after year their knowledge is what keeps your day going smooth. Planners are the time keepers and problem solvers so that you can enjoy your day. 9. Vision: As a professional I am able to execute your wedding day vision becuase I know what works and what needs to be altered to achieve your vision. I 'll be the one to make decisions when you and your family should be celebrating. 8. Cost-Effectiveness: A professional is a wise investment to ensure the time and money you have spent is executed how you envisioned. 7. The Gift of Time: Consultants know what needs to be done and when - keeping you on track and sane, saving you from wasting your time on stress. 6. Cohesion: Weddings are many different pieces put together to become one big event. Wedding planners make sure all the pieces are there and that they fit seemlessly together. 5. Security- Less risk of things going wrong or forgotten and more guarantee that all the little details that make your wedding unique go how you plan. It is like getting insurance for your wedding day. 4. Stress Relief: Not only does your planner keep you organized, on track on many levels, but they can also be a buffer for family tension, friend tension, money tension. Planners can also make decisions that come up during the day-of based on your decisions and not what your Mother thinks should happen. I have not met a bride that wanted to be stressed about family issues, or decisions the day of her wedding. Do you? 3. The Matter of Manners: Etiquette can be important whether your wedding is traditional or modern, a professional can help you with everything from : invite guests wording how to deal with difficult family issues, on how to create a processional order at the ceremony, on how to assign seats at the reception, on how to send thank-you notes, and so on 2. Creative Inspiration: Becuase there are so many styles and samples at at your fingertips it can be sometimes overwhelming or very hard to make a decision. A professional can help you narrow your choices to the ones that are best fit to your vision and budget. And the #1 reason why to higher a wedding planner is: 1. Peace of Mind: Knowing that there is someone you trust looking over every detail for you, ready to troubleshoot problems and be the time keeper is very calming...leaving you and your loved ones to enjoy your day. Peace of Mind = PRICELESS We recommend meeting with your coordinator at least one month before your wedding date to make sure there is a good connection and the trust building can begin. Budget for a planner, meet them, get references and listen to your instincts. You should be just as excited about your planner as you are about your flowers, colors, food, etc.. Goodluck brides!
