Top Reasons Why You Should Hire a Wedding Planner
"I'll just do it myself." 5 words that may seem harmless but in reality can make for a stressful year when putting together your wedding. If you're on the fence about hiring a wedding planner we've put together a few reasons why it will *literally* take the weight off of your shoulders.
You could actually save money.. (&time)
Wait.. I CAN SAVE MONEY by hiring someone to do everything for me? YES! It's possible. When you hire a professional, seasoned wedding planner they're essentially going to be your guardian angel as you journey through the wedding industry. They've done this before, they have contacts, tips, tricks and ways to not make shortcuts but make the right choices. When you go in blind, sometimes you can be taken advantage of; a wedding planner will make sure that won't happen to you. Not to mention, the minuscule details you can spend hours over can be executed by your wedding planner who will do their best to make those choices as if they were your own.
Trusted Vendors..
If you don't even know where to begin on choices like: Venue, photographer, florist, videographer and so on.. Your wedding planner is going to have referrals for days. Not only will they be people your planner respects but also vendors your planner works well with. If your goal is to relax and enjoy your wedding day, having a solid team that works well together is key.
You don't have to sweat the small stuff..
On your wedding day you are going to want to soak up every single moment. The last thing you want is to be worried about is how many napkins there are and if there are enough people to set up chairs. Your wedding planner will do everything they can to make sure that your day is as seamless as possible. From coordinating timelines to making sure your family members are taken care of a wedding planner is truly peace of mind.
Your dreams: Reality..
It's easy to go on Pinterest and read magazines and envision your wedding day.. but actually executing it within a budget and finding the right vendors to match your style is a huge task! Wedding Planners thrive off of getting to know you, your vision for the day and doing everything within their power to make sure that you get that wedding you've been dreaming of as soon as you fell in love. Good wedding planners will make a huge effort in every single detail.. down to the placement of forks to carry out the task you've set for them. While it is hard to let go of control we can promise you that for this very special day.. if you find someone you trust it's so worth it.
