Why You Should Hire A Destination Wedding Coordinator

By Stephen Hall


Weddings appear simple and easy to plan because you have no idea what the couple went through for months. It is the most challenging event to plan considering that you have to do it on your own. You have no experience and only rely on your imagination. In fact, only a negligible number of people have a wedding of their dream. To have an unforgettable day, it is advisable to have a destination wedding coordinator. What will this coordinator do?

A realistic budget. Most couples will imagine the day without paying attention to the budget. Some end up compromising on quality while they could have gotten excellent value had they considered available alternatives. Others spend far more and thus do not enjoy value for money. Coordinators intervene to ensure that the budget gets you the day as you envisioned through excellent alternatives. Their experience and exposure guarantees value for money.

There are minor details that are likely to be ignored. The knife to cut the cake, make-up to retouch the bride, a reserved place for your CEO, parents, etc. You need to enjoy the day other than worry about such minor details. When ignored, they take color away from your day.

Provide unthinkable alternatives. Sometimes you fall short of your budget or would like a certain design or tent but it is too expensive. Coordinators have been in the industry for long. They understand your dream and will provide a viable alternative that will still deliver the day of your dream. If a particular venue is occupied, they will offer an alternative that is equally good and convenient. When the budget shoots up, they slice it without lowering the quality you get.

Signing deals with service providers. Your idea of a tent could appear too expensive that you settle for a lesser one. The proposals given could also be inflated or have hidden charges like transportation, limited time, distance covered, etc. Rely on the keen eye of the coordinator and knowledge of the industry to get the best deal. You will surely get value for money and save on your budget.

Creating a schedule that coordinates all service providers. A lot of people will be involved on the day. Some will be transporting people and materials. Others pitch tents while decorators have to wait for chairs and tents. If this is not coordinated and an agreement drawn, there will be a crush in some areas. Use the experience of coordinators who understand what comes first and what follows.

Handling all invitations. Some couples receive calls from close friends and relatives furiously inquiring why they were never invited. Though you prepare a list, you are likely to miss some important people or lack the time to remind them. Coordinators ensure that everyone on your list is invited. They also organize their sitting arrangement, logistics of travel, etc. When you look at the pictures, everyone you wanted to grace your occasion will be there.

A relaxed couple enjoys their wedding and makes it more colorful. This is impossible if the burden of organizing is upon your shoulders. Allows a coordinator to take the burden away from you to allow you have a day of your dream. When reviewing the video after honeymoon, you will never regret spending the much you did on a planner.
