What EXACTLY Does a Wedding Planner Do?

Happy Tuesday!

Hope you had a lovely weekend full of wedding planning.

Today I answer the question we hear the most of in this business, "What EXACTLY does a wedding planner do?"

Everything.

Honestly, there are so many different things that wedding and event planners do but I'll do my best to give you the general information today and provide you the tools to make an informed decision for your event.


Wedding Planner vs Event Planner:

This one seems to be the easiest to figure out but the main difference is...WEDDINGS! A wedding planner specializes in weddings where an event planner covers a broad category of events that could include weddings, birthday parties, or even a networking event for a company.

Wedding/Event Planner vs Wedding/Event Coordinator:

A wedding or event planner is in charge of putting together the pieces of your ideas to create the day you desire, but also keeps you on track for meeting certain goals (Order your dress today, send invitations by Friday, etc...) A coordinator is typically for the day of the event and makes sure the final details are in place and everything goes off without a hitch.


With the wonderful world of Pinterest you may be asking yourself "Why do I need a wedding planner?" The simple answer to that question is this, because wedding planning is overwhelming.

A planner may not be necessary for your needs, but I ALWAYS suggest at least getting a day of coordinator. Your wedding day is a very busy day, you have a lot of people who need something from you and inevitably something, even a tiny little thing, might go wrong. You should not have to worry about the table arrangements or the DJ being late, your only concern is getting down the aisle and saying "I Do."

While Pinterest is a great asset to decide what you would like your dream wedding to look like, it can't do everything that a wedding planner does for you. We're here to help you and make everything go as smoothly as possible.

Stay tuned for another post soon lovebirds!
