Congrats, you’re engaged! You and your love are eager to get started planning your wedding. Now comes an important question: where do you start? Do you hire a wedding planner, or do you do it all on your own?
Wedding planners are professional organizers, creatives, go-getters, and service providers. They are there to make your big day run as smoothly as possible and make your vision come alive. Here are our top 5 reasons why you should hire a wedding planner:
-1- They are on your team. Planners are there to protect your investment and make your wedding everything you dreamed of and more. They can help you negotiate with vendors and find creative ways to get the most bang for your buck!
-2- They have done this before. They bring years of experience and lessons learned. They know the tricks of the trade and will keep an eye out for any red flags throughout the planning process. They have a vast bank of resources and can use them in tandem with their experience and knowledge to make the most of your big day!
-3- They are unbiased. You can run your vision by them, and they can provide constructive feedback from their years of experience in the industry. They don’t have the same level of personal involvement that your family or friend might have (and that can be a good thing)!
-4- They have connections. Skilled wedding planners have connections to vendors that they know and trust. They can recommend the very best vendors for your big day based on your personality, style, and budget. Some vendors will even offer you a discount if you are working with a trusted wedding planner!
-5- They can take your stress away. Your wedding day is one of the few days where you get to be swept off your feet surrounded by all of your favorite people. Having a wedding planner can allow you to relax and actually enjoy your wedding, without worrying about forgetting any important details. Your wedding planner will be running around behind the scenes to make sure that you don’t have to worry about logistics on one of the most important days of your life.
