Why You Should Hire A Wedding Planner
Top 5 Reasons You Should Hire A Wedding Planner
So you’re engaged and wondering if it’s the right choice in hiring a wedding planner for your day? While you may have been a bridesmaid more times than you can count, attended weddings of family and friends, and have spent hours and hours on Pinterest pinning your dream day….it doesn’t mean you should handle planning everything all on your own.
Between booking and communicating with vendors, managing your budget, creating your timeline and floor plan, and helping with design elements, wedding planning can feel like a lot of work. On top of your daily job and personal responsibilities, even the most organized person might feel a little overwhelmed.
Hiring a wedding planner takes so much pressure off of you and your fiancè, allowing you to truly enjoy the moments of being engaged during the process. No matter what service you are looking for in a wedding planner, whether that’s Full Planning, Partial Planning, or Month-Of Planning; wedding planners are so extremely valuable and every bride deserves to have one!
Here are our top 5 reasons why you should hire a wedding planner:
01. WEDDING PLANNERS HELP TO SAVE YOU MONEY
Planning your own wedding can lead you to spend way more in certain categories that leave you little to cover other necessary expenses. As a wedding planner, it is our job to make sure you make the most of your budget. Your budget should be focused on what is important to you as a couple. Let us help you keep track of your spending so there are no surprises in the end.
02. WEDDING PLANNERS SAVE YOU TIME
Planning a wedding requires much time and effort;making sure everything and everyone is on the same page. Most couples simply do not have the time to spend wedding planning and researching reputable vendors who will be a perfect fit for their day. As wedding planners, we will help take care of the bulk of your planning and research, communicate with your vendors, and make sure you are staying on track with your wedding planning process.
Whether you are planning your wedding from the very beginning or you are a month before the day... a wedding planner will save you time.
03. WEDDING PLANNERS WILL CREATE AND DIRECT YOUR TIMELINE
Leave it up to us to create your wedding timeline for the day. In case you are wondering “what timeline?” This is every moving part that makes your wedding a success. From vendor load-in and strike, hair and makeup start and finish time, the photography timeline, DJ timeline, catering timeline, rentals, linens, and a lot more! Your wedding planner will understand the most complex details, making sure it gets done with efficiency.
04. WEDDING PLANNERS ARE THERE FOR ALL OF THE DETAILS OF THE DAY, NOT JUST ONE PART OF THE DAY.
We are often asked why someone should hire a wedding planner when they have an in house coordinator included with their venue. While having a venue coordinator is great, they're designated to make sure the space and food is taken care of. Hiring a wedding planner will ensure all of the littlest details of your special day comes to fruition. This means, you don’t have to worry about answering phone calls from your vendors on the day of the wedding, who will be placing the centerpieces the way you specifically wanted, lighting the candles, recapping those details with your DJ for the bridal party entrances, etc.
05. WEDDING PLANNERS WANT YOU AND YOUR FAMILY TO ENJOY THE DAY...NOT WORK IT.
This definitely ties into reason #4. We can’t stress this enough by saying do not hand the responsibilities of coordinating the day to your family members. We want you and your family to enjoy the day….not working it. Your wedding only comes once, and all we want is for you and your family to be able to embrace the moments and excitement of the day. Not only will we handle the small details, but we are also licensed and insured...which should give you peace of mind :)
