Two Planners and a Designer

Here are more pros and cons to consider when you think about hiring a planner or coordinator:


Con - My wedding will be a breeze. I don’t need a stranger to complicate matters.

Pro – Planners don’t have to be strangers. The best thing to do is get a planner by referral. If you know someone who used the planner’s services and had a good experience, you could do the same. It’s also a good idea to research and interview more than one planner. This enables you to have a choice and know what services are available to you.

Con - How do I know they will do what I need and want?

Pro - Communication is the key. Planners can be unbiased individuals whose priority it is to make sure your day goes your way. Having them available to you can be priceless if challenges arise. Planner/coordinators are your wedding day advocates and provide a tremendous amount of support.

At the end of the day, your wedding day is your day. It is important to remember this fact throughout the planning process. It’s easy to get caught up in the stress of it all and lose sight of why you’re doing all the work you’re doing. Having a wedding planner or coordinator can make all the difference in the world. Happy planning!
