What The Heck Is a Wedding Planner Anyway?

If there is one thing that I have learned, it’s that people really have no idea what a Wedding Planner does. I have heard that they are too expensive, that the Bride and Groom would rather do the wedding themselves and even that the couple wants the wedding they want not the wedding that the planner would create. Trust me when I say that none of this is accurate! It is the responsibility of the planner to work WITH the couple to help create the vision that they want for their wedding while maintaining the budget that is originally set. Every Wedding Planner is different, but if there is one thing that they have in common it is the fact that they only have the Bride and Groom’s best interest at heart.
