Wedding Planners

Wedding coordinators can often negotiate discounts from the vendors they work with the most. If negotiating is not your cup of tea, why not let someone do this for you?

If you do decide to hire a wedding planner, here are some questions you might ask her or him:

1. How long have you been working as a wedding coordinator?
    
2. How many weddings do you plan during the year?
    
3. What do your services include? Can you help me secure vendors and contracts, and then be there on my wedding day to coordinate everything? Can you offer creative wedding ideas based on my vision for the day?
    
4. Do you have a portfolio of past weddings or events that I could look at?

Depending on your particular requirements, coordinators may charge a flat fee or an hourly fee for the wedding preparation, and some may charge a percentage of the total cost of the wedding.

Ask around for recommendations, or talk with hotel or catering managers for names of wedding planners in your area.
