Help lol

Sit with her and set deadlines. I say plan a brunch date to iron all details out. Girl I have some friends like that, that will not give a prompt response. Hence why I would never plan anything for them lol.

View Quoted Comment I been trying to but she wont answer to even do that they dont even have a budget set yet

Oh sheesh lol. Some brides are very laid back and last minute. I would not stress now. I would let her know time lines of things and when she is ready to hit you up to plan. You are her MOH but is she paying you as a planner? If not, then do not stress yourself because you're doing her a favor.

Is she paying you to plan her wedding? Are you under contract? If not, I wouldn’t worry myself with someone’s event that they’re not even concerned about.

View Quoted Comment I agree. If she's not willing to work with you and wants the help....then she needs to put some effort in!

View Quoted Comment Its not a favor she paying me and its not that shw laid back im not going to be mean so I'm going to stop there

View Quoted Comment Understood. Well if she's paying you how would you handle another client like this? Is this your job normally?

I hope the wedding is 2 years away otherwise they need to get it together.

I agree with one of the previous posters. Sit down with her and ask her questions about what she wants. The first thing she needs to do is make a budget. Unless money isn't a issue for them, their budget is going to have an impact on options for things you can show her; like venues, catering, bakers, etc.

If she isn't answering questions, I'd say to give her some tough love, even though it might be hard to do b/c she is your friend. Her wedding is coming up quick (and it does speed up. It feels like yesterday my wedding was 10 months away and now I have less than 3 months). If she wants to make sure she gets the venue she wants other vendors, she needs to get on the ball and make her budget so you know what options to show her. I hope she does start sharing information with you about how she wants the wedding to go. I wish you the best of luck!

That's the best way to do it. Oh God bless you for being a wedding planner. I am sure it is not easy. That is the hard thing when mixing business with pleasure. I agree with how you handled it and if she wants your services then she will make some decisions. Good luck and I hope things get better.

View Quoted Comment I put my foot down last night and told her and him till they start taking this seriously and get there act togther im not doing it cause neother one know what goes in to planning this and when I first talked to her after she asked me she I told her what all went in to a wedding and she was like I had no idea she had 3 week to day to have a budget and stuff ready for me

View Quoted Comment So do I cause I told her me being her best friend and maid of honor has nonething to do with her having me as her wedding planner thats two different things

You are right and that she needs to be aware of those differences. At the end of the day wedding planning is your business and it is logical you treat her as you would any client. On the personal side of things you will be there for her as her MOH and friend.

View Quoted Comment Oh wow. I hope your friends realize how fast time goes. Good Luck with the planning.
