A wedding planner or your new best friend?
Champagne, chapels and cake are the three ‘C’s a wedding planner has on their ‘to do’ list as the summer ceremonial season enters full swing.
However, being given the important role of helping a happy couple plan the most important day of their lives is not a box ticking exercise. Many ladies (and some gents)! daydream about the big day from an early age, mentally walking down the aisle and picturing it perfectly in their head.
So, as a wedding planner it is a huge responsibility and privilege to be trusted with a couple’s lifelong dreams.
A good wedding planning expert will take time to get to know the couple to really uncover what is important to them. Once aspirations and wish lists have been explored, it is a wedding planners role to weave the magical moments into a journey of wonder and surprise.
