Top 10 Reasons To Hire A Wedding Planner

Top 10 Reasons To Hire A Wedding Planner
Planning a wedding can be such a fun experience! You get to plan your dream day with all of the love and support from the people around you. While planning the colors, aesthetic and overall vision, there is a lot of behind the scenes planning + coordinating that goes into the day that you may not think about.
The idea of having a wedding planner + coordinator for so long felt like a luxury item, but I believe has truly become a necessity. The work that we put into leading up to the day as well as tasks to do on the wedding day, it can save you so much stress + time so you can truly enjoy your day with friends + family!
Below are the top 10 reasons to hire a wedding planner for your day!
We Can Give You All the Recommendations
Being in this business for as long as I have, I have worked with a lot of different vendors. Every vendor is different and just like a wedding planner, you want to work with people that fit your style, budget and that you work well with. Working with all these vendors, we can give you recommendations based on what we think would work best for you. We also help give advice on any other questions you have as you go through the planning process. All of the details can be a lot, and we are happy to help with them.  
We Can Take on Tedious Tasks
Sometimes it’s those tedious tasks that can be the most overwhelming. Sending out invites, managing your guest list, finalizing your seating chart. There are a lot of little details that can be a lot and we can help with those tasks if need it.
Setting Up All the Personal Items
Have you ever been in a wedding that you helped with getting all the décor items set up for the couple? A lot of us have and it can eat up a lot of the day and be a little stressful. A wedding planner is there to do all the set-up of your place cards, guestbook, favors and anything else you bring in. And all of those items that we set out; we will pack up at the end of the night for your friends/family to take home.  
We Keep Your Wedding Day Moving Along Seamlessly
Even before your day, we create a master timeline and we work with that timeline to keep your day moving along. We are constantly communicating with your vendors during to make sure that everything is running smoothly. We also check in with our couples so you are never wondering what comes next!
We Wrangle in Your Wedding Party
Whether a large or small bridal party, it can take some effort to get them all in one place at one time. Everyone is there to have fun and celebrate the couple, which is the way it should be, but sometimes organizing everyone can be a bit of a task. That is what we are here for! We wrangle your bridal party for photos, the ceremony, and grand entrances. We make sure the girls have their bouquets, the boy’s boutonnieres are pinned on and they all know where to be.
We Have a Wedding Day Emergency Kit
At least every wedding that I have worked, something comes up that needs to be fixed. A ripped dress, a wine stain, a fallen updo…we have a fix in our bag for that! From safety pins, hem tape, band aids and granola bars, we have it all. We carry it with us at every wedding so you don’t have to worry about it.
We Put Out Fires You Don’t Know About
There is a long list of things we have seen and handled that our couples never know about. Décor items get broken in transfer, cake frosting gets touched by a kid, the rings are missing or the shuttles you have booked don’t show up. The list goes on and on. But all of these hiccups are fixable and we handle it so you don’t have to.
We Act as a Buffer for Drama
It can be rare, but here and there we help with family drama. We can handle seating chart arrangements, who makes a toast and who is not allowed to and handle who is paying for what. We help act as a buffer to some tense situations so you don’t need to stress about it.
We Are Real with You
Pinterest can be a blessing and a curse. There are a lot of amazing things that can come from your Pinterest board and most of them are completely doable, but some things may not be. If your venue cannot accommodate or your budget doesn’t allow for it, we are here to help guide you through the process and realistically plan your dream wedding!
We Are There the Entire Day
We are there early to get all your personal items set up and make sure your vendors are arriving on time and answering any logistical questions for them. We make sure everything during the day goes off with out a hitch and at the end of the night, we pack up all of your personal items to leave the venue.
