11 Reasons to Hire a Wedding Planner

Information has not been updated for a long time

Many couples wonder if they need a wedding planner or if they can do without one. We will easily name 11 reasons why you should hire a wedding planner. We hope that after reading this article, you will have fewer doubts about this.

1. The disagreement between the couple

With the independent organization of a wedding celebration, the future family may quarrel due to differences of opinion at different stages of preparation for the wedding. There have been cases of canceled weddings. The wedding planner takes full responsibility for preparing your wedding and makes you many offers based on your wishes and budget. You just choose, enjoy the process and the time spent together.

2. Selection of contractors

Due to the lack of experience in the wedding industry, the couple makes unconscious mistakes in choosing contractors that do not match the price-quality balance. We are talking about presenters, photographers, videographers, artists, lighting and sound technicians, pyrotechnicians, and others. The choice you make may not meet your expectations. The job of a wedding planner is to properly allocate the couple's budget and help them choose the right team. 

3. Registration of a marriage

When a wedding venue is chosen, the organizers prepare a design project for the wedding based on the technical features of the site: wall color, ceiling height, space geometry, and so on. Of course, any site can be changed up to break the space, the color scheme of the walls, the floor covering, the height of the ceiling, and so on. Everything depends on the budget. 

The wedding planner will offer several design options. The ideas you like are finalized in detail with a florist-decorator. And at the finish line, we get a stylized beautiful wedding within the budget that is negotiated by the couple with the organizer. When a couple decides to arrange everything on their own, it deprives them of a calm morning of the pre-wedding day. 

Problems are also possible: you can not calculate the time for registration; it's great to overpay on rent and floristry, etc. Nerves and troubles should not ruin the best day of your life, so the design should be trusted by professionals who have studied and gained experience over the years!

4. Find a way to realize your ideas

Couples often come up with incredible ideas for a wedding that they can't do on their own. The wedding planner will make every effort, knowledge, and contact to make your idea come true - they will find contractors, finalize the idea, see the shortcomings and risks, if any, and offer solutions.

5. Site selection

Here is the same analogy as for the choice of contractors. When choosing a venue, you need to build on the chosen style of the wedding, the number of invited guests, the wishes of the cuisine and decoration, remoteness (in the city, outside the city), the possibility of settling and holding the second wedding day, the technical equipment of the site, permitting the site for pyrotechnic equipment and more. The parameters of the site will determine how bright and rich your wedding celebration will be. The wedding agency knows the venues and will offer options that will meet your requirements. You save time on looking for venues on the Internet, traveling, and communicating with banquet managers.

6. Quickly find a solution in case of force majeure

No wedding is safe from force majeure. It can start to rain, the photographer got sick, the guests got lost on the way to the restaurant, and the button came off in the end - the already excited bride could hardly find a rational solution to an unexpected problem. It is unlikely that the organizer will be able to change the weather or cure the photographer, but they will quickly find a worthy replacement for the contractor, resolve the issue with the site, find transport for guests, and a needle and thread for a button. They are a lifesaver that many brides lack.

7. Quality services

In each wedding project, the organizer draws up the terms of reference for the contractors. As an example, the photographer, according to the items in the checklist, needs to be photographed. The wedding organizer also accepts the material and checks the quality. If the work is not 100% done, then the probability of working with this photographer in the future is 0. Contractors understand this, and therefore the result of their work is always high!

8. Budget savings

The future family is convinced that they can save on the services of a wedding planner and mistakenly start preparing by studying every item in preparation for the wedding. However, the couple only loses: 

- time to study wedding services on the Internet

- agency discounts from contractors of up to 25%

- discounts on the menu and rent of the selected venue up to 10% 

And many other bonuses that, when put together, will turn out that the service for organizing a wedding is much cheaper.

9. Wedding coordination

A coordinator on the site controls everything that happens on the day of the wedding. They meet technical specialists, accept their work when ready, approve the decor, welcome guests, coordinate them by phone, coordinate the kitchen, take-out of food and drinks, control the work of all contractors in terms of timing, etc.

10. Does the hard work for you

The wedding planner takes care of most of the issues of wedding preparation, allowing the bride to prepare for the holiday calmly. It solves complex organizational and technical issues, saves your time, effort, and nerves, and gives you the opportunity to enjoy wedding chores instead of being an exhausted and tired bride.

11. Beautiful completion of the celebration

The organizer will prepare for you a bright finale of the wedding. Working in a team of pyrotechnicians, you can create a fire show according to an individual scenario and your wishes, fireworks with the initials of the first letters of your name, your voices, vows of love, and other ideas that are negotiated with the future family on the day of the wedding project.
