Considering hiring a wedding planner but not sure it’s worth the money? If you’re newly engaged it can seem like there’s a lot of decisions to make, and whether or not to hire a wedding planner is definitely an important one. A wedding planner can take on as little or as much of the organisation of your wedding as you need; whether you’re looking for full-service design and coordination, or simply someone you can rely on to manage the day for you.  There are many reasons for hiring a wedding planner – to some it may seem extravagant, but to others it’s non-negotiable. Here’s our thoughts on how a wedding planner can be a huge asset when bringing your dream wedding day to life.

 

1. You’ve never done this before


Chances are you and your fiancé haven’t planned a wedding before. Even if you have, there are always new and exciting trends, venues, and suppliers popping up so it’s never the same. Some couples feel that they can plan their own weddings because they’ve helped a sister or best friend plan theirs but planning your own wedding is completely different. A professional wedding planner is the best person to guide you through this intricate process.

 

2. The stress is getting to you


Planning a wedding is harder than it looks and if you’re already losing sleep over your massive to-do list, hiring a wedding planner can really make the entire process much more manageable and enjoyable for you. You should be excited about your big day, not stressed and tearful.

 

3. You’re planning a destination wedding


A destination wedding for many  can come with a extra added layer of stress, especially if you can’t visit every supplier in person to help you choose the right team. A wedding planner can help you choose the right team and source local suppliers and bring everything together for your day.

 

4.You need a push start


A wedding planner can help you get the ball rolling so that you can start making all the important decisions. They’ll help bring your vision together and put you in touch with vendors and suppliers who can help bring your day to life.

 

5. You’re hoping other vendors will help with the planning


Yes, a photographer can give you some guidance on the timing but they definitely won’t be assisting you with any other coordination or wedding planning. Your photographer will be able to tell you what time to start getting ready and how much time they’ll need for family shots but they won’t be able to assist with the clearing of the reception hall for décor shots, bustling your dress before you walk down the aisle or making sure that the men’s boutonnieres are pinned on properly, this is what your wedding planner is for. A wedding planner is there to make sure that your photographer can do his or her/ his job on the day.
