Good question right? You just said yes and now everyone is asking
you a million and one questions…right?
Not to mention everyone is giving their opinions, ideas and
suggestions…especially those that are not donating to the wedding planning
fund. The question is:
“Have you ever planned a wedding
before?”
Most likely no, you may have
assisted in giving advice, helping to set up or create DIY projects for someone
else…but then stop and ask yourself:
“How much do you want to ENJOY
the planning experience leading up to the big day and how much time do you want
to spend living in the moment on your special day?”
Do your research… once you say I
do, look into hiring a planning team that will take your vision and create
reality. Make sure WHO you are hiring is
a professional. Yes, we all started
somewhere but do not expect someone who is doing your wedding in their first
year of their career to know everything like someone that has been doing for
decades… you can’t compare apples to oranges.
I am
blessed to have planned nearly 300 weddings and events over the past two
decades. I have a degree in Recreation
Parks and Tourism with a double minor in Psychology and Business along with a
concentration in Travel, Tourism and Commercial Recreation. But for me that wasn’t enough… I’ve continued
my education with multiple certifications and recently returned to Graduate
School to pursue a Master’s Degree. In
2017, I was honored with the highest level of education through the Association
of Bridal Consultants becoming 1 of 80 Master Wedding Planners in the World…
however, currently there are only 57 of us actively planning and producing
weddings and events. So just by having
me on your wedding day puts one of the very best experts on your team and by
your side step by step.
Education
and Experience is what will make your wedding day feel magical as if it all
just naturally comes
together. The
planning portion of the wedding is getting to the day…the real experts take all
of the planning and executes! No matter
how much time we spend planning every detail, we never truly know what will
happen because we can’t tell you what your guests will do until that
moment. With a wedding of 100 guests…
that’s 100 guests doing 100 different things every 60 seconds of every minute
of every hour and then of the entire day… something that happens offsite could
effect something later in the day… and it’s the EXPERTS that will know how to
weather any storm, be flexible, create solutions and have back up plans ready
to go. So THAT’s why you hire the BEST
on your special day. Not only because
they are the BEST at what they do…but simply because of all of the WHAT IF’s we
can’t fully predict.
