When hosting your own wedding, it’s typically your first time putting together an event of such grandeur, where you’re both managing and are the key decision-maker on every aspect: budget, decor, timing, all the things! While this may naturally feel like an exciting feat, (finally you get to decide the menu!), there are tons of new decisions to make you probably don’t have experience with. To be able to manage the budget, and vendors, and execute your vision perfectly, recruiting professional help only makes your life easier! Let us walk you through all the reasons to hire and ways to benefit from working with a professional wedding planner in Denver, Co.
Hiring a Wedding Planner in Denver, CO: Why They’re a Must-Have
Your Venue Doesn’t Offer A Wedding Coordinator
Some Denver wedding venues offer wedding consultants, planners, or coordinators who can act as your on-site “traffic controller” as vendors arrive, explaining to them where to set up, and sometimes even offering assistance to help set up your decor. But fear not if this type of role is not provided at your venue space, a wedding planner in Dallas can easily step into any venue and know exactly how to manage the many moving parts of a wedding day. Two critical aspects of their role at the venue are to:
- Make sure every vendor shows up with the correct items. (We ordered the white cake, not yellow!)
- Make sure the room is set or decorated in time and according to the plan.
Wedding Service Deals
Besides knowing vendors in the area that have competitive pricing outside of the vendors you may have found on your own, your wedding planner in Denver can also help you negotiate pricing when you’re reserving vendors to help you find the best route to reach your budget goals.
Some wedding coordinators who have been in the business for a while have built partnerships with vendors that allow their clients special deals or packages not known to the general public. Having someone on the inside and on your side can definitely be a bonus!
Real Talk
While, yes, you deserve to have your dream day, sometimes you need someone to be real about what you’re able (or not able to) execute on your budget or at your wedding venue before you dive too deep in plans. While some wedding vendors may guarantee your dream day, your wedding planner is there to clarify and keep everyone in check asking, “at what cost”?
Should You Hire a Day-of Coordinator Instead?
If you’re thinking a wedding coordinator is completely out of your budget, but would still appreciate some assistance, a day-of coordinator may be your best cost-friendly option. Day-of coordinators will help you refine your wedding day timeline and run the behind-the-scenes show on the day of the wedding, guiding decor and vendor set-up, keeping track of the flower girl’s petal basket, and making sure you have time to sneak away for touch-ups or for a break with your husband or wife. The list is endless, but you can be hopeful that if something did happen to go wrong, your day-of wedding coordinator will have it handled
