9 reasons to hire a planner you probably never thought about….
1. Budget—sounds weird because they are 20% of the budget but they are able to evaluate what is important to you and where you can save by coming up with creative ideas and knowing the right vendors to hire. Besides like Heidi from Seacoast Harbor Events says…. “don’t you want to invest your wedding day with a professional?”
2. Cohesive design—this is HUGE! Trust me the photos will be 100% better if a planner oversees the planning. They can take your dreams and make them a reality by merging ideas and keeping everything in a theme/color palette.
3. Stress free—planning takes a ton of time, a bunch of negotiating, lots and lots of research, and its just much better to have someone guiding the decisions and overseeing the contract processes.
4. They know the intricate details that need to be attended too. They wont let the linens get overlooked in the fees, they will make sure the cake is the perfect size for the amount of guests etc. They make sure everything is handled professionally and you can just keep getting pampered that weekend
5. Day of details—they know exactly what you want. Where you want things, when the florist needs to arrive, where the photo booth can set up etc.
6. Planning from afar—they are your one go to contact instead of having to keep up with multiple vendor connections throughout the engagement they are your go to.
7. The scapegoat….instead of having to make excuses up to your mom as to why you want to do things a particular way you can just suggest the planner said that was the way to do it. The planner can be the buffer and talk to mom when mom thinks she knows best.
8. Their experience is invaluable…..even if you have been to tons of weddings in the last several years…..a wedding planner is on the inside of 10-20 weddings a year! They know what works, what doesn’t work….what to do when something changes or goes wrong….its all accounted for
9. Making your dreams a reality. They have walked with you on your engagement journey and are going to do all they can to make your wedding day the best one your friends and family have ever seen.
