When to Hire a Wedding Planner

4:47 PM

To hire a wedding planner or not? That is the question on many bride and groom's minds as they prepare for the big day. Many people think hiring a planner is an unnecessary cost. While in some cases you may not need the extra help, but in many it is vital. Here are some situations where we know a wedding planner is a must;


Getting Married at a Private Residence
Nothing is more intimate or personal than getting married at a private home. Whether it is yours or a relative's, a planner is key for many reasons. First; we've done this hundreds of times and know exactly what you need to do to prepare the space. Do you have electric available? Do you need to rent a bathroom trailer? Did you spray for insects? Having planned events in private residences we can guide you on how to perfectly prepare for a large event. In addition, the last thing you want to do the day of your wedding is make sure the DJ arrives. Let your planner check in every vendor and put out any fire that may arise while you calmly get ready for your big day!


Getting Married at an Nontraditional Location
Getting married at a nontraditional location is such a memorable event for you and your guests. Campground, Christmas Tree Farm, Vineyard? We've done them all and know the permits, timing, hidden costs and where to save in order to hold your wedding at a location other than a catering hall.


Large Wedding Party
There's nothing like being surrounded by all your loved ones and friends on your special day. But sometimes a large wedding party can lead to a large headache! Organizing more than 8 bridesmaids and groomsmen can be stressful. Add a very emotionally involved family and you can find yourself stressed for months before the wedding. A wedding planner will diffuse any tension by organizing logistics and timeline for you.


Lots of Little Details
Details make a wedding YOUR day. They add the personal touch that guests remember. That being said, sometimes a lot of details can be tough to execute all on your own. Many venues offer to place menus, favors, etc. but when it comes down to your entire vision only a wedding planner will make certain everything is exactly the way you want it.


Nerves
Who isn't nervous for your wedding day. Months of planning for a five hour event can make even the most serene person crazy! But if the idea of planning a wedding gives you a panic attack instead of butterflies then a wedding planner is a must. You will have a hand to hold with every step of the process and someone to help organize all the details that keep you up at night so you actually enjoy your engagement and the wedding!

Backyard Wedding on the Long Island Sound

Event Recap: Simple Backyard Wedding 
Long Island Sound

We Designed and Coordinated a Wedding for a Beautiful Couple from Colorado a few weeks ago.

They wanted something simple and rustic, but most of all they wanted to have a blast!

They also wanted to have their ceremony and reception in their family's backyard, that just so happened to be on the Long Island Sound- which provided a beautiful backdrop.

The centerpieces were modest and very beachy. We used drift wood that the couple found on their property and incorporated it into the table decor with succulents, greenery and a touch of cream and pale pink flowers. Even their cake was decorate with simple greenery.

We created a beautiful Arch  that the Couple got married under with Curly Willow that framed the view of the Sound. 

Guests were also greeted and directed around the property by vintage style signs on drift wood and pieces of old wood accompanied by over sized Lanterns.

We dressed up the Backyard by framing the dance floor with large bulb rope lights draped from birch poles. This added an amazing glow to the atmosphere throughout the evening.


As you can see- the view was absolutely gorgeous. As the sun set- the Newlyweds exchanged vows, and then guests were invited to the Tent to eat a fantastic dinner by Elegant Eating.

It truly was an amazing evening- and a very unique wedding. We loved working with this couple and their families- and wish them nothing but the best!
