1 – KNOW YOUR WEDDING PLANNER
Getting to know more about your wedding planner is essential before you even deicide to fill in the contact form and inquire about their availability and rates. Find out about their strengths and vision browsing carefully through the website of your choice. A wedding planner’s tone of voice, disposition and discourse will shed enough light for you to get a good idea whether you two (or three, or four) can click. Yes, their style is important, but then when this connection is strong and you identify with your wedding planner there’s hardly anything you cannot ask for that won’t be happily provided. Seek out your planners’ personalities, their list of services and make notes on how easy you can navigate through their sites. There is a fat chance that if everything around a wedding planner vibes you with ease, elegance and a love (yes love is something that you will instantly feel) you’re on the right path.
2- THERE’S NO WAY LIKE A GOOD CONTACT.
Now that every vibe feels right it’s time for you to visit your wedding planner’s contact page and fill in their form of connection. So much depends on how “pro” the reply you get is. And by “pro” we don’t mean only the right amount of info received, but the way everything looks and is presented. Did you just receive a plain list of services and prices? Chances are you will get the same treatment as a client. Have you received an extensive list of checklists and detailed services? Then this is how laid out for you to see will be your entire planning. Never neglect that feeling you get from someone who looks too busy to engaged, too messy to clarify, or too unwilling to negociate and discuss the lovely things you are there to share. Never neglect the feeling you get from someone who always engages, cares what you have to say, considers no question silly and provides clear answers when you need to know. Your ideal planner’s approach will go way beyond making you feel “at home”.
3 – QUALIFIED, SPECIALIZED, IMMERSIVE.
Through conversing with your wedding planner, by setting weekly check-ins with each other you’ll get to hear all about the team(s) who will be available to handle everything for you, so that you don’t end up doing the work you are paying someone else to do. Is your wedding planner eager and ready to cover every aspect of your wedding? Are your wedding professionals qualified in specific aspects of your wedding, but maintain the same level of care through every step together? Will they be monitoring every detail of the wedding so they can all have a deep knowledge about each of your events? Are they apt to offering you undivided attention and being omnipresent throughout your festivities? There will likely be weeks where nothing wedding-related happens, but will they consider it important to keep the check-ins on the calendar so you can discuss whether either of you is struggling with any upcoming tasks?
4 -WHAT ARE THEIR VENDOR TACTICS & RAPPORT
It is so important for a Mr.& Mrs to be, to be able to communicate with their vendors. If your wedding planner is going to be in charge of a vendor, then you and your fiancé can always be in the loop with the same people. Your ideal wedding planner will keep you posted on what’s going on in the planning process so that you will be able to tackle issues together when they come up. Your ideal wedding planners are the team who will be there for you throughout the most minute moment, and they can serve as the voice of reason, not only keeping your best interests at heart but ensuring you that you get all that you need, if you need it. Which brings us to the no 5 and most important factor:
