Your D-day has been announced and your eyes take a flight to all the fantasies you have imagined. You fancy one ‘Monica Geller‘- ADHD friend to brisk away your wedding planning. Since not everyone is as fortunate as a Phoebe, we bring you things to consider before hiring The Perfect Wedding Planner.

Cost

Indian weddings are – ‘Extravaganza galore’! Your parents have probably dreamt of your wedding while you were learning to say Pa.  But deciding on the budget doesn’t hurt. Seeking a planner in accord shall bear its own fruits.

Count

Once you have discussed the budget, consider all the count-questions:

  • What will be the guest count?
  • What is the count of successful weddings, organized by the planner?
  • What is the maximum count of clients the planner takes in a year?
  • What is the count of guests the planner can cater?

These questions are sure to bring you the clarity on your chosen planner’s quality, performance, management and success of execution.

Concept

This is where the fun and spring arrive. You are super-charged with the concepts and ideas. Do not hesitate to exchange the same with the planning executive. Apart from cost, this shall be another catalyst in selecting a planner. Many planners offer custom or a-la-carte wedding concepts to those who wish for extravagant decor.

Course

Create a checklist for the events. Seek suggestions from the planner. Let them compile a course of celebrations for you, including the Hows (planning-execution), When (duration), Where (venue), What (Meal planning, decor) etc. Question them: How is their work different? Why is their work same as others? Compare the lists from different planners and select the one in sync with your parody.

Connections

If you wish to bring any pre-screened vendors on board now is the time to ask.  If not, check the planner’s vendor list and verify their credibility. For instance, you can always humbly ask for a photographer’s portfolio.

Comfort & Care

Your plastic money is probably going to run out. So you’re entitled to receive special attention. Destination weddings require detailed attention to details from pin to plane.

Contract

Being specific doesn’t hurt, especially when you want to enjoy the celebrations without any unpleasant encounters. To avoid this, create a contract stating all the terms and conditions or any breach-formalities. This shall safeguard both the parties. Restrain from those working without contracts.

Last but not the least, sign and relax for your day in the sun.
