Wedding Planner or not?

Monique, on November 21, 2019 at 8:59 PM Posted in Maryland Planning 0 4
Hi ladies! My wedding date is 12/12/20 so I have ample time to plan out exactly what I’m looking for and I think I have an idea of the look I am achieving; however, I feel that it’s going to take a lot of vendors. Lighting, draping, event decorator, etc. I’m wondering if I would save money by hiring an event planner to handle all this coordination for me or if it’s just better to handle it all on my own. What are you ladies doing? What have you learned during this process?

    We went with partial planning services for our wedding. Our planner was our day-of coordinator and also helped with vendor scouting, which we were so thankful for! You can send me a message and I can give you her contact information if you are interested.

    Hey Monique! Welcome to the community! Congratulations on your engagement!

    What style of wedding are you planning? Have you looked into any venues yet?

    There are lots of different options when considering a wedding planner as you don’t have to hire a full wedding planner if you felt like a day-of coordinator would be sufficient. It totally depends on your budget and the wedding you want to have.

    Yes, we are getting married at Asbury Methodist Church in downtown Annapolis, Md and having the reception across the street at the Graduate Hotel. I'm more concerned about transforming the conference room into an elegant speakeasy vibe and I'm just afraid that I have no idea who to contact! Lighting, drapery, decor rentals...just the thought of it all is overwhelming! And I'm just not sure what type of planner I would be looking for. I kind of want someone to see my vision, and make it come to life - without breaking my pockets. I don't know if there is such a thing!
