Planning a wedding is a big job with investment of not only your money but also your time. Before you embark on this journey, consider the following misconceptions about wedding planning:
Planning my wedding has been a dream of mine since I was a little girl. I don’t need to hire anyone…
Picking out bridal gowns and theme colors is only a small fraction of the entire wedding planning process. The glamour starts to wane when you are confronted with deadlines, budgets, and contracts. The process may become arduous for those not used to managing endless details involving logistics and coordination with numerous vendors. Through years of experience we know what needs to be done, when it needs to be done by, and who to go to for the best price and quality. Our job is not to steal your joy of planning your own dream wedding. Instead, we are here to help make that dream a reality and ensure that you and your significant other get the opportunity to enjoy one of the most memorable days of your lives.
We don’t need to hire a coordinator. We have many friends and family who have volunteered to help with the wedding…
While it is nice to have those close to you offer a helping hand it can also be a double-edged sword. Tasks may not be done in your time frame or by your standards. Unless you have hosted a wedding before, you do not know the amount of stress and anxiety that can build up in the weeks/days leading up to the big day. Disputes may arise and tempers may flare. The last thing you want to do is spend the night before your wedding, much less your wedding day, checking up on everyone to make sure they’ve done their job. Also, think twice before asking your maid of honor or a close relative to be your wedding coordinator. Like other hired vendors, good coordinators spend most of their time working at your wedding not drinking cocktails and mingling with guests. Let your guests be guests at your wedding and leave the work up to us.
There is already a coordinator at my ceremony site…
Don’t confuse wedding coordinators with site coordinators. Site coordinators will only take care of things related to the use of their sites. They do not help you develop or adhere to a timeline, nor do they act as a point of contact for all your vendors and helpers. A lot of times they are present only at the start of the event to make sure rules have not been broken. Ultimately their number one priority is the well being of the venue, not you.
We can’t afford to hire a wedding coordinator…
Our vendor connections and know how puts you at a financial advantage. Clients who have used our services saved anywhere from 20-30% on the overall cost of their wedding. This is an investment that pays for itself. You simply can’t afford NOT to
hire us.
