As you may have noticed, our blog has been a little quite lately. The last few weeks have been very busy as we’ve had a few weddings and have been prepping for a busy wedding season ahead! We have just a few open dates left for this summer and are starting to book for 2012! We promise to try to post more often during the summer busy months- so check back frequently! We will also be bringing back our Sole Sunday segment with shoe splurge and steals!
With summer in full swing, we thought it would be the perfect opportunity to remind you how important it is to hire a professional wedding planner! Here’s a post from a couple months ago featuring photos from our “Let Us Do the Dirty Work” photo shoot! Enjoy!!
Planning your wedding is supposed to be fun, exciting, and enjoyable! I think every bride has her moments of stress, after all there are so many decisions to be made and often times it’s not just about what you want, it’s about what your fiance wants and potentially your family and friends are pressuring decisions as well!
There’s a common misconception that wedding planners are only for the rich, but the thing is, wedding planners/coordinators can save you money and much headache, as they often get discounts from vendors that they then pass along to their clients and can also save you from making a bad decision when it comes to booking a vendor with a bad reputation or purchasing diy projects when buying the item already made may be more cost effective! They can help you decipher the large world of wedding vendors and helping you find the right match for your budget, personality and style!
At My Chic Events we offer a large range of packages from full service planning to day of service and anything in between! We want all of our clients to have the most enjoyable planning process possible, regardless of the package they pick!
Why do we say EVERYONE needs at least a Day of/Month of planner?
No, it’s not because it’s what we do and we want people to hire us! As I mentioned in yesterdays post even a planner needs a Day of planner to be able to make sure everything runs smoothly. You may be extremely organized, but who is going to make sure the centerpieces are on the table, that the DJ knows where to set up, the favors are placed where you wanted, that the guest book is out, that the photographer is running on schedule, that the caterer knows to have the food ready a little later because the ceremony ran late? Who’s going to let the DJ know you’re ready for toasts or make sure there’s never a lull in the events?
You’ve spent hours, months, possibly years planning this one day that marks a huge milestone in your life! You want to be able to share it with your closest family and friends and you want everyone to be able to enjoy the day!
No matter how much you’re spending on your wedding, it’s relevant to how much money you have and you want to make sure everything you’ve planned comes together as you had planned and is stress free and fun! Having a day of/month of planner allows you to relax and enjoy not only the day of your wedding, but also the days and weeks leading up to it!
A few of the many things we do to make sure your day is amazing:
We meet to go over all the details for your wedding about a month to two weeks before your wedding
Look over your contracts
Put together a timeline
Confirm vendors and make sure they are all on the same page for the timeline
Set up/clean up
Troubleshoot any issues that may come up
Set out favors, guest book, etc
Help keep everyone on timeline for the day and let vendors know when the timeline has shifted
Act as point person for wedding party, family, vendors and guests
Bring a fully stocked Emergency Kit
We are there to make sure that you, your fiancé, parents, wedding party, vendors and guests have the best most stress free day possible!
Don’t let this be you, let us do the dirty work!
