How can a wedding consultant can help me?
It's all about time and money! A consultant can match you with wedding service providers which fit your personality and budget. A consultant can also help you with contract negotiations, saving you time, money and headaches on the wedding day. A consultant helps you take care of all the details of the wedding in a timely manner, thus, reducing the stress and anxiety as the wedding draws near.
Isn't it an unnecessary expense?
For the couple on a limited budget, a wedding consultant may seem like an unnecessary additional cost. This is not true! Couples on a restricted budget need a coordinator the most. A wedding coordinator can plan the event the bride and groom want while conscientiously keeping within a predetermined budget.
"A coordinator will make sure you don't exceed your budget. And don't underestimate the amount of time he or she will save you, which is what makes this service most valuable to a busy bride," says Martha Stewart.
I want to plan my wedding. Won't a consultant want to run the whole show?
A professional bridal consultant will work with you, handling as much or as little of your wedding as you want. After all, it is your wedding.
What are the biggest mistakes people make when planning a wedding?
In our opinion, the first, biggest, and costliest mistake is budgeting.
Setting a budget is not as fun or exciting as shopping for "the" dress, or choosing flowers. Not budgeting can mean paying off your wedding until your tenth anniversary! A wedding coordinator knows how much wedding services cost and can help you decide what's most important, considering your budget.
Once you have a budget, you'll need to stick to it! If you plan to spend $15,000 on your wedding, in order to stay within that amount, you must keep accurate records, a running balance, and maintain a payment plan. A wedding coordinator can help you avoid being "swept away" in the planning. Stay within your budget, and make that budget work for you.
Determine the essentials in creating your dream wedding. Do you really need that ice sculpture at your outdoor wedding in August?
Photography is not the place to skimp on your budget. People will forget the food you served and your dress will be sealed up, and put away. Your photographs will be what you look at and show off year after year. While your relatives may take wonderful pictures at birthday parties, leave the wedding photography to an unbiased professional who does this weekend after weekend. They know the pitfalls, the pains, and they will have a back-up plan.
It may sound self-serving, the final mistake is not hiring a wedding coordinator. A coordinator helps you avoid the previous problems and can save you time and money. A coordinator's knowledge of the industry is (and should be) broader than your knowledge. We deal with weddings all the time. A coordinator is an absolute necessity the day of your wedding. Do you want to line up the wedding party? Do you want to fix hems on dresses? Make sure guests are seated before you walk down the aisle? Make sure the buffet food is hot? Make sure the photographer gets that picture of your favorite niece or nephew? Deliver gifts to the right car after the wedding? You have planned your wedding day for months, and dreamed of it since you were a child. Don't spend it worrying. That's what Elegant Events by Shannon Renae is for!
