The day has come, the love of your life has proposed at last. Now it’s time for everyone’s favorite part, the planning! The Pinterest board is ready, inspiration picks have begun to form, but your dream wedding is still stuck in your head and keeps failing to get onto paper.
With everything that goes into planning a wedding, it can be incredibly daunting to figure out where to start. That is where having a wedding planner can save every bride a lot of headaches. If you are debating about whether or not to hire a wedding planner, here are some reasons as to why it might be the right fit for you.
Wedding Planners Know Where to Start
Let’s face it, when you hire a wedding planner, this is not their first time doing the job. Because of their experience, they know what to expect, and where to start. They will start by hearing about your ideas, guest count, budget, designs, and theme and go from there about detailing what things you need to buy and where to get them. It allows you to have a stress-free planning experience, and when you do have questions you have a professional right there at your fingertips to answer them.
Wedding Planners are Practical
Wedding planners are amazing at making dreams come true, but they also know when dreams can only be dreams when it comes to the given budget. Sometimes what you have planned, just won’t practically fit in with how much money you have to spend. Your wedding planner can hear your ideas and help you learn which dreams will work, and which ones might have to be altered to be completed.
Wedding Planners are Expert Communicators
One of the reasons wedding planners are so helpful is because of their ability to be communicative. They can easily talk and plan with your vendors before and on the day of your wedding. This allows you to not have to stress about knowing when your vendors will arrive, what they will charge, or what the menu should be, Your wedding planner already knows your desires for the big day and will be able to communicate every need you can think of easily to your vendors.
Wedding Planners are Have Inside Knowledge
Wedding planners have done this so long, that they know all the secrets to the best deals and best vendors. Wedding planners can tell you about certain companies that you might not have known about beforehand. Many wedding planning companies also have deals with certain vendors. Meaning if your wedding planner books a certain vendor to cover your wedding you get a discount, this can help you in the long run and will save a lot of money in the overall cost.
Wedding Planners are the Best Big Day Besties
Planners are there on the big day with you, with their main goal being taking stress off you and making sure you stay happy. They are pretty much the maid of honor on steroids. On the day of the wedding, they will be the mediator between you and basically everyone else. They will help with making sure the vendors know where to go, creating a welcoming atmosphere for guests, and making sure that everything is on time and moves smoothly.
We hope these benefits make you even more excited for your big day, and also have helped you make a decision on whether or not to hire a wedding planner.
