Wedding planners are no longer reserved for the affluent; these days there are planners to accommodate most budgets. A good planner can be one of the best investments you can make towards your wedding. Below are our top 3 reasons to hire a wedding planner.
- We have a budget and need to stick to it… It may initially seem that hiring a wedding planner may increase the cost of your wedding. In truth, doing this can actually save you money due to the amazing discounts you couldn’t otherwise access. Event planners are members of 'underground' network of wedding professionals. They know the best vendors with the best possible prices. They also have a lot of contacts that may be willing to help you achieve your dream even if it means cutting into their profits.
- It all in the details... Basically, the wedding planner takes care of all those small details that the couple just does not want to worry about. Most importantly, a wedding planner will keep your day running on time and in the manner that couples desires. A wedding planner truly gives the couple the ability to enjoy their day essentially worry free.
- We want to enjoy the d-day...This is one of the biggest reasons why couples hire a wedding planner - the coordination of the actual day. Most couples should not need to worry about anything on the day of the wedding and this is where the planner comes in. Amongst other things, the wedding planner makes sure the DJ arrives on time, the decorator has delivered the bouquets and centrepieces to the correct locations, and that the wedding favours/souvenirs are correctly distributed.
