subject: Different Aspects Of Planning A Wedding [print this page]


Planning a wedding can be very demanding and complicated that it is best left to the professionals. Although DIY wedding planning can be done for simpler and less expensive weddings, the chance of disappointment is higher because of the trial-and-error involved. Couples could end up wasting time and money while their tolerance for stress is tested to the breaking point. Even seemingly simple things like finding appropriate wedding venues in Melbourne could become difficult depending on the deadline and other factors involved.

Various types of businesses and professions are closely related to weddings such as food catering, flower arranging, bar tending, photography/videography, and performing musical renditions. All of these are important in a wedding event but they will not self-organize and become well-coordinated without a wedding planner. Careful planning in terms of finances, logistics, communication, motif, and deadlines is necessary to have a well-oiled wedding event.

Wedding planning is a type of event management that requires the coordination of various teams and completion of specific tasks within a given time table. Depending on the number of expected guests and the motif or pageantry involved, preparations for a wedding could take several months.

A few event organizing and wedding planning companies may also include engagement parties, bridal showers, and bachelor parties as part of their wedding planning packages. Aside from the budget, the only other main limiting factor is the imagination.

From fitting gowns and tuxedos to selecting cake designs, from hiring performers to selecting wedding and reception venues, a professional wedding planner act like a general in a field of battle. He or she coordinates and schedule all the various aspects of a wedding. Hence, it is very important that a wedding planner has the bird's eye view or comprehensive perspective so that the 'battle plan' can be thoroughly and efficiently implemented.

A wedding planner must also be able to foresee and prepare for possible last-minute mishaps or inconveniences. Hence, backup plans or contingency plans must always be in place. For example, a wedding planner must know where to order a wedding cake on a short notice in the event that the main cake is ruined in some way.

All the planning and creative ideas must always be consulted with the bride and groom, who are the main focus of a wedding event. Of course, initial interview with the couple must be conducted to know what they really want and need. The wedding may also provide suggestions but must always work within the budget, regardless of the economic standing of the clients. Business ethics should always be observed.
