Hiring a Professional Wedding
Coordinator or Wedding Consultant
 Wedding
coordinators have many names: Wedding Planner,
Wedding Consultant, Wedding
Coordinator, and Bridal Consultant.
No matter what title they take what they offer is wedding
peace of mind. They take over all the stress of remembering what
to do and when to do it. If you can let go of the control of your
overall wedding and let someone else worry about
when to do things, Wedding Coordinators can be
of great service. A good Wedding Coordinator
will be familiar with many wedding professionals
and the type of service they provide. The great thing about a
Wedding Coordinator is that you don't just hire
their services but you also gain from their knowledge.
Wedding Consultants'
services are tailored to meet the needs and the uniqueness of
every wedding and the requests of every couple.
Consultants may charge a commission of the overall cost of your
wedding, a straight flat fee or if you are only
using them for partial services they may charge by the hour, the
average being about $50.00 an hour. When you meet with a Wedding
Coordinator discuss your wedding budget, the
number of wedding guests you are inviting, the
vision you have for your wedding and the amount
of involvement and the services you will need from them. Think
of a consultant as the best friend that never gets tired of discussing
your wedding plans.
There are a few registries for
Wedding Consultants. The two main ones are "The
National Institute of Weddings" and the
"The Association of Bridal Consultants". When you are
inquiring about the services, ask if they are registered with
either of these associations and what it means for you.
