“Our wedding design inspiration was ꜱɪᴍᴘʟᴇ, ᴄʟᴀꜱꜱɪᴄ, ᴀɴᴅ ᴛɪᴍᴇʟᴇꜱꜱ. We wanted something elegant that would withstand the changing trends. ⁠
⁠
We chose white and gold as our primary colors, with evergreen and greenery mixed in throughout. We loved how classy these colors looked together without being too loud or distracting" -The Bride⁠ @kay_hedstrom⁠

At the end of every wedding feature, we ask couple At the end of every wedding feature, we ask couples their advice for other soon-to-be weds, and hands down, we hear the same reply: Hire a wedding planner.

Experienced wedding planners are worth their weight in gold.

Most couples don’t realize that you don’t hire a wedding planner to just help with the timeline and getting you down the aisle, a wedding planner is your “firefighter” for the day. They solve problems before they become bigger issues because, with that many moving parts, anything can (and does) happen!

But before you say that a wedding planner isn’t in your budget, did you realize that a wedding planner can actually save you money?

1. Keeping You Within Budget
Planners break down your budget into prioritized categories so you know exactly how much you have to spend, and so that you make the best decisions going forward.

2. Recommending the Right Vendors for Your Budget
Once planners know how much you can spend for each category, they can give recommendations on the best vendors who will fit that budget.

3. Passing Along their Industry Discounts
Since planners have preferred vendors that they work with repeatedly, those vendors may pass down discounts, waive certain fees, offer special pricing packages, or be more flexible with their services.

4. Preventing Wasted Dollars
Wedding planners can save you money by preventing you from making costly mistakes and help you focus on the high-impact items instead of wasting money on small things that might go unnoticed.

5. Reading Between the Lines
They examine contracts for hidden fees, educate couples on is and is not included that may result in additional expenses, and make note of payment deadlines to avoid late fees.
