Top 5 Reasons Why I REALLY need a Wedding Consultant

Top 5 Reasons Why I REALLY Need a Wedding Coordinator

1. I need a professional.... Hiring a professional wedding planner is just like hiring a professional painter:

• What about all the unnecessary materials that you will have to buy that you won't use again?
• What about all the mess you will make
• What about all the cleaning up that you will have to do afterwards

2. I need someone to help us manage our money

• A professional wedding planner knows how much you should and Shouldn't spend on ALL of your wedding needs

3. I need someone to mediate

• I want beef, the groom wants seafood... A professional can give you the pros and cons of both and let you both make a educated decision which is best
• The parents want a day wedding, the wedding party does not want to wear that color etc... a professional planner can explain to all parties concerned that this is YOUR day without any long lasting problems

4. I need someone to Host the wedding and Reception

• A planner will be the perfect host to your activities, making sure everything runs as requested

And the number 5 Reason :

5. I want a STRESS FREE Wedding Experience

• By hiring a planner all the details will fall on their shoulders. You can sit back relax and know that every detail has been taken care of!
