Which Wedding Planner is Right for You?
The Woman Getting Married Wedding Podcast
One of the most important wedding vendors you can hire is a planner. And yes, every wedding needs one! But considering planners can offer different packages based on your time and budget, how do you know which one is right for you? In this episode we're talking about the various levels of service you can expect, as well as how much you'll likely pay for each.
info_outlineWhen it comes to planning your wedding, one of the scariest parts has to be signing contracts and paying deposits to vendors you've likely just met. You are relying on them—financially and emotionally—to help you orchestrate what should be one of the happiest days of your life. This has never been truer than this past year when the pandemic threw a lot of vendors and couples for a loop, especially when it came to the ins and outs of contracts, and how to handle deposits if you need to reschedule.
Natalie and Mike were one of those couples, and it hasn't been easy. On this week's episode we talk to bride Natalie about what she's learned about wedding contracts, and her advice to all brides hoping to avoid what she's been through.
