Why Should I Hire a Wedding Planner?

Wedding planning can be a part-time job, especially if you have never done it before.  There are many decisions to be made and can quickly become a chore instead of a time of excitement and joy.  Hiring a professional wedding planner can make all of the difference.

Reason #1 – Industry Knowledge and Expertise

Wedding planners are professionals who love all-things weddings.  They understand the ins and outs of the industry, the best and most reliable vendors and the latest trends.  Their expertise ensures that every element of your day is carefully curated and executed.  (Many venues require that you have a wedding planner.)

Reason #2 – Budget Management

It can be easy to overspend if you don’t have a clear budget or are not familiar with typical wedding cost.  A wedding planner can help you stay on budget and make suggestions where you can cut cost without sacrificing quality.  

Reason #3 – Create a Vision and Style

Wedding planners can take all of those saved pictures and ideas from your Pinterest page and help you create the wedding of your dreams.  Planners excel at turning your vision into reality. They can help refine your ideas, suggest personal touches, and ensure that your wedding is cohesive and reflects your personality as a couple.

Reason #4 – Stress Reduction

One of the biggest reasons to hire a wedding planner is for your own peace of mind.  They can handle last minute changes, day-of coordination, logistical challenges, so you and your family and friends can enjoy the day.  Your planner will make sure the day runs smoothly from the management of the timeline to unexpected issues.


Your wedding planner will get to know you and your priorities, ensuring that your wedding is authentic to you and makes sure no details are overlooked.  Hiring a wedding planner is an investment in your sanity, time and overall success of your event.  You can sit back, relax and enjoy the journey to “I Do”.  You won’t regret it.
