The Value Behind Investing in a Wedding Planner (And Why You Need One)

Just because you have helped plan your friend’s bridal shower, or you helped her decide on a cake flavor and centerpieces, doesn’t necessarily mean you are a wedding planner pro. I know many of us like to try to do all the things on our own, but planning your wedding is not something you should try and DIY. Between staying on track with your budget, finding vendors, and all the other fine details keeps you just as busy as your full-time job, which is why there are wedding planners, like me, who do this for a living! Working with a wedding planner can take all of the stress off your shoulders so that you can enjoy your engagement and not be stressed out about your big day. But what is the true value of investing in a wedding planner? Here are my top reasons.

Why You Need a Wedding Planner: Knowledge

Knowledge is critical when it comes to wedding planning. Wedding Planners are knowledgeable of the industry, process, vendors, etc. They ensure that you have a professional and dependable vendor team who make your wedding day seamless. Also, since Wedding Planners have so much knowledge of the industry, we can help source and recommend the exact vendors you are looking for to make your wedding day dreams come true.

Why You Need a Wedding Planner: Experience

Experience is another significant value because it goes hand and hand with knowledge. With each wedding that we do, we are constantly learning new things, understanding why something worked and in other situations why it didn’t. We’re professional problem solvers, always figuring out solutions to problems behind the scenes and taking care of any surprises that arise. Our experience allows us to prepare for these types of situations and know how to navigate them. 

Why You Need a Wedding Planner: Support

Wedding Planners offer a shoulder to lean on during the wedding planning process. We bring ease to a stressful time and understand it can be complicated and overwhelming to plan a wedding. But that is why we’re here to help. When you feel like you’re on an emotional rollercoaster, we want you to use us as a resource. Let us be there to guide you and help you have fun along the way. 

Why You Need a Wedding Planner: Creativity

It’s like having a non-judgmental friend with you throughout the planning process. We’re going to always hear your opinions out and take all your ideas into consideration and see what we can do with them. Also, if we can’t do something due to restrictions at your venue, we always develop creative alternatives to still incorporate what’s important to our couples. You don’t need the burden of making decisions last minute, so we put our creative brains out there to make sure your day turns out exactly how you desire.
