Tips and advice for hiring a Ventura / Santa
Barbara County Wedding Consultant:
Very few brides are professional event planners, stage directors
or project managers, thus there can be a huge margin for error
in planning a wedding.
Some newly engaged couples simply can’t handle the added
stress or cope with the time-consuming details of planning their
weddings. As with any complicated project, there might a need
for a “project manager”. In the wedding business, this
person is known as a wedding coordinator or wedding consultant.
Regardless of whether your event is large or small, a wedding
coordinator can remove the burden of hundred of details and see
to it that tall the segments of the wedding re properly planned
and implemented.
Coordinators are experts on wedding etiquette, so if you have
a question about what is “right” they’ll have the
answer. They can also shield the couple from problems arising
on the wedding day. Familiar with wedding timelines, a coordinator
knows what planning tasks need to be done when, and will alert
you to them. This can lower the stress level for everyone.
When selecting a coordinator or consultant, be sure to interview
several before making your final choice. Find one you feel comfortable
working closely with and one who understands your wishes. Inquire
about how many weddings the coordinator has worked on in the past.
Find out exactly what ser ices they offer and what they don’t.
Check their references. Ask yourself, does this person seem organized
and professional? It’s also a good idea to establish the
fee structure up front.
The cost of wedding consultants vary from region to region, and
with the overall wedding size. As a general rule, you can expect
to pay ten to twenty percent of the total wedding costs for a
person who is managing all aspects of a large wedding . Others
may charge a flat fee. For simple consulting services, you might
pay from $50 to $75 per hour. If possible, it’s better to
have a flat fee, thus you know the complete cost up-front.
A service that has grown tremendously in popularity is “Month
Of” and “Day Of” wedding coordination. These services
can take the pressure off of you and allow you to enjoy your wedding
without worry.
“Month Of” and “Day Of” coordinators can
be hired for your wedding day at any time during the planning,
but generally don’t “jump into” your planning until
1 to 2 months prior to the wedding day. Because these services
are not as extensive as a coordinator package that covers all
the planning from beginning to end, “Month Of” and “Day
Of” is a very budget friendly way to get peace of mind on
your wedding day.
Wedding Celebrations wedding coordinators may also be found under
the following search phrases: Wedding coordinator, wedding planner,
day of coordinator, day-of wedding coordinator, party planner,
event planner, event coordinator, party & event planners, wedding
coordinators
