There’s no sugar coating it, planning a wedding is stressful business. In fact, a recent survey discovered that 96% of couples said they felt more stressed out planning their wedding than compared to buying a house or finding a new job…yikes!

So what’s to keep you from settling for a quick elopement at the courthouse? A dream team of vendors by your side, of course! Whether you want help planning from the start, or you’re more of a day-of coordinator kinda bride, know that your wedding day doesn’t have to be a stress-filled, pull-out-all-your-hair kind of experience. Below are 5 reasons why you should consider hiring a planner, like, right now. 

KEEP TRACK OF THE DETAILS

While some parts of planning deserve your full attention, you can leave the not-so-fun stuff to the planner. From managing spreadsheets to communicating with vendors and even planning the wedding timeline, it’s their job to coordinate all the extra details so nothing is forgotten. So your time is better left to things you really want to focus on, like dress shopping for you and your girls, or cake tasting (yum!).

HELP YOU STAY ON BUDGET

This might seem counter intuitive but a planner can actually help save you money in the long run. They’ll calculate your budget to make sure every expense is covered, including things you might not think of, like tips for vendors. So unless you love to do math and make endless spreadsheets, leaving this to a professional is your best bet for staying on budget while saving your sanity.

One thing to note, some planners get referral fees from vendors, but you can rest assured they’ll more than likely avoid referring bad vendors. Their reputation is on the line after all.
