What can a wedding planner do for me?
We are all very busy people. Between full-time jobs, household errands, commitments and committees, most of us are over scheduled. Contrary to popular belief, hiring a wedding planner is not an indulgence reserved for the rich and famous. It is best needed for the professional, full-timer working person, like you! A planner can save you time, stress and yes, money!
Hiring a wedding planner helps to economize your time, so you are free to work on things that matter - like preserving your (precious!) energy by staying balanced and centering your attention on the creative, unique and fun aspects of the day. You want to stay radiant and focused on making it special for you and your partner.
You may find that planning a wedding is overwhelming! If you do, the expertise of a professional consultant can be a huge relief! A planner not only manages, but greatly reduces and eliminates stress! A wedding planner acts as your team leader. She plans, schedules, directs and orchestrates the tasks of all the day's vendors - the people and their very important roles in making your wedding come to life. She is the point person. She has the resources to not only locate the most efficient vendors that fit your budget and individual style, but those specific vendors who work well together to achieve the common goal of making your dream wedding come true! She has the name and contact for the best cake decorator in the area, knows florists and designers who could work well with your needs, can summons special linens, tables and chairs with a push of her phone and can distinguish one photographer from another.
Wedding planning is a full-time commitment! Planners are always interviewing, researching and networking with different types of vendors to suit different types of needs across different areas. This is what we do when we are not planning weddings! Plus we stay on top of trends, styles and etiquette to keep you abreast of the latest packages, options and solutions to all of your wedding-related questions.
Planners produce schedules so that all the vendors, wedding party members and parents know where they need to be, when. They are adept at figuring out how much things cost and can get reduced rates from vendors they have worked with in the past and will generally pass those savings onto you. They are knowledgeable at reviewing all types of event-related contracts and can quickly discern what needs to be included, what is extraneous and what is a great deal.
When all is said and done, time is money. Even if you have a staff of assistants at your disposal, as team leader, will it still leave you enough stress-free time to enjoy yourself? Having fun can get hard especially on the big day when people are buzzing around asking you all sorts of questions!
Nevertheless, however involved you want to be in planning your wedding, most consultants will customize packages to fit your needs and wants. Most will work within your specific budget - no matter what the size of it is! The point is, a wedding is a spectacular rite of passage for almost everyone. There are not many do-overs. You want to look back on your wedding as memorable, beautiful, sentimental and amazing. Worrying about all the little details when you should be enjoying yourself can detract from the magic. It would be my pleasure to help you avoid this. Please call us today!
