Planners can partner with couples in so many ways and offer value and expertise to help the planning process feel less overwhelming, but there are sometimes misconceptions about what working with a planner will be like. Here are a few we sometimes hear:
“They are going to take over my wedding.”
As the couple, you are in control every step of the way. You tell us your destination and we serve as your guide to get you there in an efficient, seamless, and stress-free way.
We equip you with the information you need to make wise decisions and keep you on pace with the planning process.
We often hear, “Oh, I never would have thought of that!” By sharing our expertise and professional insights, you can have the confidence that we have covered everything and no detail will be overlooked.
“They are not going to really listen to or “get” my vision.”
A good planner will listen to you, want to know your vision, and partner with you to design a wedding that is a true reflection of you.
One of the first questions we ask our clients is what's most important to them as a couple. By knowing their priorities, we can ensure that every decision made throughout the planning process is made through that lens.
None of the weddings we work on look the same, and that is because no couple is the same.
“They are going to make me spend more than I want to.”
A good planner will help you save, invest wisely, and be your advocate in the process.
We know when and how to negotiate the vendor terms.
We want you to be happy with every decision and comfortable with the investments you are making.
It is so important to trust and have good chemistry with your wedding planner. When you know you have found the right fit, you can rest easy that any concerns you may have about them taking over, not listening, or busting your budget can be allayed.
