Today’s topic is is really near and dear to my heart and also kind of a hot button issue for me. But I promise to be as bi-partisan for both sides so you get a balanced perspective.
If one of the reasons below is why you're considering not hiring a wedding planner, then definitely have a listen on what I think about that.
5 REASONS YOU THINK YOU DON'T NEED TO HIRE A WEDDING PLANNER:
- One or both of you have a background in event planning. [07:05]
- You have a hard time giving up control and trusting others. [9:26]
- You're planning a “simple wedding.” [11:00]
- A friend or family member says they want to help you so they can get wedding planning experience. [14:22]
- You want to be the one to tell everyone what to do on the wedding day. [17:50]
5 REASONS WHY SOMEONE WOULD HIRE A WEDDING PLANNER:
- One or both of you work in hospitality and you know how much work goes into producing a well-run event. [18:44]
- You want to trust a professional with your investment. [19:15]
- Neither of you wants your day to feel like a generic, cookie-cutter wedding. [21:00]
- Being able to enjoy the wedding planning experience is important. [23:00]
- You also want your guests to enjoy the wedding too! [25:47]
