A planner juggles the roles of designer, legal counsel, budget manager, coordinator and so much more—all while helping you pull together your wedding. Plus, they're connected with top venues, florists, caterers, etc. in your area, ensuring you have the best team of experts to pull off your celebration. Simply put, they are pros at planning! An experienced planner is one of the key investments you can make when bringing your wedding day to life.

The right planner will help you make the wedding of your dreams a reality—but only if you pick the right one. Make sure you have a list of questions ready to go for that initial meeting to ensure that you both connect and can understand each other's visions. Whether you are envisioning a formal ballroom affair or a rustic outdoor ceremony, the right planner will know all of the best venues and vendors to pull dream wedding off. Plus, with an expert behind all your purchases, the planner may be able to negotiate and you will save money in the process. The right planner may be able to get you better rates, and they'll always look out for your budget, so you don't have to.

Planners also act as a safety net for your wedding! If anything were to go wrong during the big day, they are the ones behind the scenes troubleshooting and getting everything back on track. This way you can really enjoy every moment with your loved ones, instead of worrying about if the cake will arrive on time. When you have a wedding planner, you can truly take the stress off of making sure all the little details are perfect - they will do it for you. Trust us on this one—you want (and deserve) a helping hand on your wedding day. After all, this is going to be the happiest day of your life.
