Why You Need a Wedding Planner | Becky’s Brides

Debating on whether or not to hire a wedding planner? We’re here to help settle the debate. Many people believe that a wedding planner’s sole job is to make a wedding beautiful (think J. Lo in “The Wedding Planner”). While that is a small aspect of our job, trust me – we also do SO much more that is crucial when planning and executing a wedding! Hiring a planner makes a world of difference in your wedding planning and wedding day experience. You could be the most organized human on the planet and deciding against getting a planner would still be detrimental. We’re sharing some of the real reasons why having a wedding planner changes everything:

You spend time doing the fun things – 

Wedding planning takes a lot of time and it’s likely you, as a working girl yourself, don’t have time to invest hours upon hours every day into planning this huge celebration! Not only is time an issue, there are a lot of behind-the-scenes, not so fun aspects of wedding planning that planners are equipped to handle.

We do the “dirty work” so you can focus on being a fabulous bride and have actual free time! We create a solid game plan, find the perfect vendors for you, your style and your budget, handle communication with said vendors, create designs, checklists, timelines, so on and so forth. This gives you peace of mind and most of all, time to do all the fun things in wedding planning like trying on beautiful dresses and picking out lovely flowers. Plus, you can actually focus on your *real* job too, knowing that someone trustworthy is handling all the details for you.

We Take Care of Unforeseen Emergencies – 

Situations can arise on wedding days that are 100% unexpected. It is our job to ensure that this either gets fixed quickly or goes unnoticed. We arrive to every wedding with a huge pink emergency kit that has everything you can think of, from a sewing kit to a steamer to a garter. We use that kit at least once at each wedding because you just never know what will happen! We’ve had to wipe down hundreds of chairs after a downpour, rush to fix a bridesmaids dress or brides bustle, retrieve bug spray or sunscreen, the list truly goes on and on.

The last thing you want to do as a bride, groom or family member is deal with these situations on the wedding day! This is your one day where all your favorite people are there to celebrate YOU, so you need  to enjoy every single minute. By having a planner, you leave those unforeseen stresses to people who know how to handle it!
