While the wedding planner is there to help you every step of your way in wedding planning journey they are also NOT your personal assistant.
Services of the wedding planner and things they provide are always discussed in advance and are listed on the invoice / contract.
Wedding planner will usually help you setup the wedding site , track RSVPs, scout for venues , get quotes from vendors , design and style your wedding , hire rentals and performers . They can even oversee wedding invitations send out and thank you notes after the wedding. Always discuss with your planner what Is included and what you should expect on the day of .
Running your errands, fixing your dress and your bridal party outfits , picking up last minute items are NOT included with wedding planner services .
We always keep and emergency kit with safety pins , sawing supplies , bandaids, headache pills , scissors etc that we can supply to our couples in case of emergency.
But you should not expect us to run around town picking up some last minute things.
Same goes for decor : any decorations should be discussed in advance , any personal Items( guest book , guest favours ) that you prepared should be provided at least 24 hours prior with the full list and description of the items and where you want them to be placed .
We plan our setups , labor and schedule in advance so if u add more things last minute this may interrupt the flow of the setup .
Any last minute changes to timeline and music cannot be guaranteed either as we have a set timeline confirmed with our partners and Many of us work back to back events so it’s not always possible to reach your DJ at the very second and have them restructure the playlist .
Always remember that preparing for your day takes days and for some weeks . It’s not Just the day of work that you “paid so much money for “. Don’t treat your wedding planner as your secretary, treat all of your wedding professionals with respect and gratitude. When we feel appreciated we always go extra mile for the client to make them feel special and provide extra service for the day !
