Wedding Planners & Consultants
A wedding planner handles all of the logistics of your big day. While they are another
vendor you hire for your wedding, they can be invaluable and will save you time, money,
stress, and sometimes even your personal relationships!  They will perform as a professional
always, an impartial opinion when needed, a banker to keep you inside your budget, and a
confidant as required.  They will work with everyone involved to best
assist in making you dream wedding a reality.
In an initial meeting, the consultant will discuss your
budget, number of guests, style of your wedding, and
the date. They will then formulate a picture of what
you’re planning to do and begin the process of
recommending which vendors would best suit
your needs based on your tastes, ideas, theme,
budget, and location. They will give numerous
ideas and recommendations and often go
with you to assist in the interviews, or do the
interviewing and hiring process completely for
you! 
Full Service
There are a couple different ways to hire
wedding planners. If you are overwhelmed
by the entire wedding planning process and
want your day to go off without a hitch, hire a
full-service planner.   They will be with you from
the very beginning to end of your wedding planning
experience, as well as be there to support you and make
sure everything goes smoothly on the big day.
