The ideal time to hire a wedding planner depends on the level of service you need and how far along you are in your wedding planning journey. For Full Planning couples we recommend reaching out 18-12 months in advance. For Partial Planning a year to 8 months is typical while many day of clients wait till around that 6-4 month mark.
A venue coordinator works for the wedding venue and is focused on managing the logistics of the venue itself. They won’t assist with non-venue-related elements such as designing your wedding theme, managing your budget, or overseeing outside vendors like florists or DJs. An event planner works for you, manages your whole vendor team and is dedicated to ensuring every detail of your wedding is perfectly executed.
I am flexible and happy to accommodate either approach, depending on your preferences and needs! I have a curated list of trusted vendors who have consistently delivered exceptional quality and service. These professionals are experienced, reliable, and familiar with my planning process, which can streamline communication and ensure a smooth experience. However, you are not obligated to use these vendors.
Email is my preferred method of communication as it keeps everything organized and ensures we can track all the important details in one place. It also allows for quick responses and easy sharing of updates, ideas, and documents.
