It is said that girls begin to plan their perfect wedding from the time they arrive at nursery school. But the reality is often different from the fantasy. A lukewarm venue, late cars, a dreadful band can turn any optimistic princess into Queen Kong on what’s meant to be the happiest day of their life. For most people, their wedding will be the first big event they have ever had to put together, so - is it possible to pull off the dream wedding (and within budget) while maintaining your sanity? Wedding planners take care of the stress and burdens that are associated with the big day and to turn the Bride’s wishes into reality.
Listening to you
One of the key benefits of using a wedding planner is that they listen to your requirements and suggest ways that they can be achieved within your budget. Not being tied to specific venues and suppliers, they are free to create a great day to suit you.
Saving You Time
The average time the Bride, Groom and their families spend organising the big day can be anything up to 250 hours! Sourcing a venue, finding the right suppliers and then communicating with each and every person you will ultimately contract with is both time consuming, expensive and stressful. Just picture it venues, caterers, décor companies, DJs, photographers, videographers, fashion vendors, makeup artists, florists, musicians, entertainers, marquee companies, staging companies, to name a few.
There is a cost to this, nobody takes into account the personal hours you will take to search, select and book the venue and suppliers, and that’s just the beginning, you then have all the communications and details to take care of over the following months along with confirmations, deposits and final balance payments – this is all time, and time is money.
Sourcing the best
How can an engaged couple with little previous experience of suppliers work and service know if they are the right people to surround them on this very special day.
An experienced wedding planner will suggest quality suppliers they work with year round, all who have worked in the wedding industry and earned their reputations. This in itself immediately takes away the doubt factor which at some point runs through all brides’ minds! It also takes the stress out of the planning so that family relationships don’t get overheated in the process!
A Friend on the Big Day
And then there is the wedding day itself – the wedding planner will be on site checking everything from the initial set up through until the evening reception giving the couple total peace of mind. This allows the Bride and her family enjoy the wedding in a stress free environment with someone in the background making sure all is running smoothly and to time. You should be “hosting” this day, meeting old friends and new without looking over your shoulder trying to catch someone’s eye to check on the proceedings.
They will help their clients avoid disasters because they oversee all of the operations of the day to the last detail. Should there be an emergency at the event, the planner is usually better prepared to deal with the crisis rather than having the client try to figure out what to do.
Using your Budget Effectively
It is very easy for the wedding budget to get out of hand. This has to be balanced with the endless details tailored to the bride and groom. An experienced and busy wedding planner will negotiate the best deals for you from all their suppliers. They will be used to working within a budget and will use yours efficiently.
Adding their Creativity
A professional wedding planner has to be creative with a very good sense of style and know what trends are current and which ones are outdated. This can make the difference between a good and an unforgettable day.
A wedding planner should be the key element to having the dream wedding that you can actually enjoy, stress-free. They provide a service which can save you time, money and stress. They will be a creative source, professional, good value for time and money, up to date on the latest trends and themes, and a trusted advisor.
Planning your own wedding will mean endless hours of research, loads of running around and becoming stressed on top of the wedding jitters all couples experience. Why not let someone help you to make this enjoyable, easy and stress free – still have the control, but without the legwork, evaluate your time and make the whole procedure fun rather than a chore. Red cheeks and puffy eyes are not a good look for the wedding photos!
