Finding The Right Wedding Professional For You
What does a wedding professional do? They help brides plan their weddings
. They might help for a few days as the wedding day approaches, or they might be your guide through the entire wedding process. While the wedding professional's job is to help you with your wedding, your job as the bride is to make sure you choose the best wedding professional for you.
How do you decide who is right for you? The first step is to meet with the professional. What's your first impression? Is this a person you would want to have lunch with or is this someone whose personal taste doesn't mesh with your own?
Can you explain what you want? Think about what colors you want to use, if there's a wedding theme you have in mind, or if there are certain flowers you want to use as a focal point. Have some information ready when you meet with your wedding planner so they know where to begin.
Wedding planners may seem like they create magic as your perfect wedding comes together, but it takes a lot of hard work. Those that do it best get paid well for their time. As with most things in life, you do get what you pay for. If you want to spend $100.00, you might get a little help or direction. If you can budget several thousand dollars, then you can have someone work with you throughout the entire process.
In order to find out how other people have enjoyed working with your wedding professional, you can start by looking at places like Wedding Wire. This is where people rate their experiences. More and more brides are turning here to find out information for whom to work with.
Take a look at all the reviews. One bad review doesn't mean you have chosen a terrible person. We all have bad days and we all have good days. What do the majority of the reviews say? Are they positive?
The next step is to talk to past clients. If a wedding professional is unwilling to share any information, that may indicate a problem. When you do talk to someone who has worked with your preferred wedding professional, ask them not only what they liked about the process, but what they didn't like. You will also be able to judge their experience by their tone of voice and the enthusiasm with which they speak about the wedding professional.
Now you have all the information you need to make the best decision you can. Your wedding planner should be your support and your encouragement and they should help you, not frustrate you. When you have the best person for you, sign the check, then get busy enjoying your wedding planning experience. This should be fun, so have fun!
