One of the questions that may come up as you start to think about your wedding is whether or not you should hire a wedding planner. There’s no doubt that the right planner can relieve a lot of your personal stress and worries, but there are some disadvantages as well. By weighing the pros and cons, you can determine whether hiring a wedding planner is right for you.

Cost

The most important thing you’ll need to think about is the cost of hiring a wedding planner, because they don’t come cheap. The average cost is between $3,000 and $5,000. If this is something you can spare easily, then you might want to go ahead and hire that wedding planner. However, if this simply isn’t in your budget, you might simply have to rely on friends and family members for help.

Stress and Time

Another important thing to consider when it comes to hiring a wedding planner is your amount of stress and the time you have to devote to wedding plans and arrangements. For instance, if you’re a busy professional and you simply don’t have the extra time to plan things out, a wedding planner can relieve that stress and handle things for you. A competent wedding planner can often feel like a godsend, because they can make decisions, talk to vendors, plan décor, schedule meetings and so much more, taking the pressure off of you.

Capable and Competent

Finally, if you do decide to hire a wedding planner, you’re going to want to make sure that planner is capable and competent. The best way to do this is to ask for photos of their past weddings and for references from past clients. This will allow you to determine the quality of the wedding planner’s work, and whether past clients were satisfied.
