Last week, I had lunch with a friend at a local diner in Birmingham and we got into a discussion about weddings (of course)! She inquired about the role of a wedding planner and more specifically the need of one. I explained that a recent bride said it best the day after her wedding when she said “ Thank goodness for you. I do not know what I would have done without you or your help.”
According to my friend, the brides words were lovely, but what she really wanted to know was the list of responsibilities. So, after explaining the various duties, she is now a full fledged supporter of wedding planners. My job there was done.
Here are a just few of the hats of a wedding planner:
1.) Coordinator-A wedding planner pulls all the little details together for a smooth wedding day result. He/she also works closely with all vendors to bring your day to life as well as to offer a bride a stress-free day.
2.) Organizer- A wedding planner will create a detailed time line for the day of which provides structure and security to the day. He/she will also guide you through the entire wedding process by supplying checklists, tips, articles and resources.
3.) Designer-A wedding planner provides expertise in décor and design as well as offers fashion sense.
4.) Relator-A wedding planner works to unite all your vendors and communicates your dreams and wishes. He/she will even mediate between family members on occasion.
