In a world of magic pumpkins and fairytale weddings, there come the things that make even fantasy weddings a little more difficult. I like to call it life. Many brides know they are getting married even before they announce those key words to the whole world...We’re Engaged! Why not bring in life’s real Fairy God Mother – a wedding planner.
I bet you are the bride scouring websites like pantone.com looking for your favorite wedding colors for spring 2010. Or, visiting every last venue site in Arizona’s Finest Wedding Sites and Services magazine finding the best site for gorgeous sunset photos? Sound familiar? There are probably many more details that you hope will magically happen on your wedding day. It takes many professional vendors to bring together a perfect day only made for you. Have you thought about what would happen if one vendor did not come through or arrived late to your wedding? These are the details and stories that even Fairy God Mothers leave out of the fairytale endings.
Be prepared! That’s what I always tell my brides. Things will happen and this includes rain in Arizona on your most important day – your wedding day. While working with your wedding planner, you must always consider the worst case scenarios can or will happen. What if the pastor shows up late? Or, the cake topples over while being delivered to your reception? Make sure your wedding has those contingency plans in place because a great planner is constantly rehearsing your fairytale ending.
Planners are a must for the bride who doesn't want to deal with the stress of last minute changes, things missing or broken, weather/facility nightmares, etc.
ReplyDeleteAs a DJ, working with a planner (like Valerie) makes everything oh so smooth. She eliminates the chance of a toast happening without the father in the room, or a cake cutting while the photographer is changing their media. A vital, central point of contact, hire a planner that you trust, and let them make those tough last second decisions for you. Enjoy your day as the bride!
A good, experience planner (like Valerie) not only keeps the day running smoothly, she helps all the other vendors do the best job possible, that's what I call a "win-Win-Win"!
