Hiring a wedding planner is one of the smartest, best investments you can make when planning your wedding. And no, we aren’t just saying that because we’re wedding planners. We do what we do because we love helping brides! We’ve seen, firsthand, the stress and chaos that can ensue when brides don’t have someone on their side throughout their planning process. Here are our top 5 reasons for hiring a wedding planner! Keep reading....
- You need
someone to keep you on track. We all know how easy it is to procrastinate,
and when trying to balance a job, a relationship, a social life, and all of the
other things you’re involved in, it’s easy to push your wedding planning to the
backburner since it’s still technically months away. A wedding planner’s sole
purpose is to keep you on track and make sure things are getting done when they
need to – bottom line, we help you not procrastinate by doing the work for you!
- You need
someone with connections. No one expects you to know the best locations,
caterers, or entertainers in any given city, so how can you be expected to get
the best for your wedding on your own? Wedding planners make it their job to
know all the latest and greatest locations, chefs, deejays, bands, and anything
else you could possibly want for you wedding, so you don’t have to worry about
searching the internet for a less-than-fabulous vendor.
- You need
someone to keep you on budget. Weddings can get expensive, and unless you’re
a pro at keeping track of your spending and budgets, it can be a lot to handle.
Good thing a wedding planner’s first thought is to keep you on budget! Also,
most wedding planners have great connections with the vendors you’ll want to
work with, and know what a fair price is, so you’ll never have to worry about
paying more than you should.
- You need
a personal advocate. Whether it’s a disagreement with your bridesmaids or
your own indecision, a wedding planner is there to help you and support you. We
advocate for your best interest and your personal desires, and make sure your
voice is heard above all the noise that can surround planning a wedding.
- You need to
enjoy your big day! There are countless details that go into making a
flawless and seamless wedding day, but they shouldn’t be your concern. Your
wedding planner is there to ensure that, even if your heel breaks while getting
dressed or your cake knife gets lost in transit, it will be taken care of
before anyone ever notices. Your only job is to have fun and enjoy your big day
alongside your loved ones!
