Hiring a wedding planner will not only save you time, but it will also help you stay on track and rest assure that every detail is being taken into consideration with an expert who knows the ins and outs of the wedding industry.
CONNECTIONS
It is entirely too easy to spend hours scrolling through the Internet reading reviews on who to hire for your wedding vendors. Do you like their style? Are they in your budget?

A planner will be able to tell you what is worth your time and money and discuss questions you encounter along the way.
THERAPY
Let’s be real, a wedding planner is pretty much a personal therapist! There are so many emotional dynamics involved in a wedding day. Is your second cousin pushing her opinion on you? Are you feeling burdened by your in-laws? How do you handle overbearing friends? Sometimes you need an unbiased party to vent to. Other times you may need someone to step in and assign tasks to keep that special someone busy. I gotchu! (Seriously, being a therapist is actually my day job.)
