Why you should hire a WEDDING/EVENT PLANNER?

So you just got engaged… it’s a very exciting time in your lives…and it should be. This is a time when couples have committed to sharing the rest of their lives together and a time that should be remembered and cherished. Not a time to spend endless hours researching vendors and confused with whom to trust to get the job done right.

Most couples today are career-oriented and there are time constraints on planning your perfect wedding. Couples remember, a fabulous wedding doesn’t "just happen," they are planned! It has been estimated that the average number of hours spent planning a wedding or event is between 150-200 hours!! That is a lot of time when you consider the intense stress that can accompany such a venture. It is very easy for a bride to become overwhelmed and frustrated. That is when most consider hiring a bridal consultant. 10 years ago it was considered a luxury to hire a professional. Most thought heck, why hire someone when I can get Mom, Grandma or your countless Auntie’s to help. But, by today’s standards it is simply a necessity! Not to mention even if you want a “down home wedding” anticipate the worst unless you hire a professional to at least coordinate the details.

Trust me, the amount of time, energy and MONEY you will spend trying to cover all of the various aspects of your “home made wedding.”  The coordinating set-up, clean- up, renting unnecessary equipment, coordinating vendor pick up and drop off…etc are far greater than the fees associated with hiring a planner.

As a newly engaged couple, your objective should be to have the very best day possible. Therefore, to do that you should have someone by your side that you fill a connection with. Someone with whom you trust and believe can give you customized service. As well as, having a stress free wedding day and all at an affordable rate. In these hard economic times the main concern is money. Therefore, you should feel confident that money you do spend is spent wisely and the details are handled correctly and to your specifications.

Hiring a Professional experienced planner will afford you the ability to have your “Special Day.”  Save you time, money and stress. By taking a personal and sensitive approach with their clients ensure your day is exactly that “YOUR SPECIAL DAY“.  The right planner, the best planner does all the work and you take all of the credit.

Tips:

1. Your first consultation should be FREE (this is a simple meet & greet).
2. Choose someone who is professional, pays attention detail and most of all listens to you both about what your visions are.
3. Services are at an affordable rate.
4. Someone you are confident you’ll be allow you to relax and enjoy your day.
