You might be thinking, do I need an event coordinator? This is a normal question. Here are our top 10 reasons why the answer to your questions is, “Yes!” and the top 10 reasons you will never regret hiring a coordinator.
10. Save Time
The average couple spends over 200 hours researching and planning a wedding. Planners have already done the research and can expedite this process immensely. You can spend less time planning and more time enjoying your soon-to-be-spouse!
9. Save Money
For full coordination clients, planners are able to get clients discounts through their preferred vendors. Planners can also prevent clients from spending money on things that will have little impact on their event, or come up with creative ways to save money.
8. Save Friends
When planning events, weddings especially, it is easy to accidentally put stress on the people closest to us. These are the people who you want to enjoy your event and be there as your friends and family, not as your event coordinators.
7. Keep on Budget
Planners will have a very realistic idea of what things cost. Event costs can add up quickly and it is important to be straightforward and vigilant with keeping a budget on track. Event planners can help facilitate this process.
6. Offer Advice and Creative Guidance
Planners have seen many events and know what works and what doesn’t. They are devoted to making your event go as smooth as possible. They are also up to date with fun and creative ideas in the industry and are likely excited and willing to share.
5. Creating a Timeline (that works!)
Anyone with Word can create a timeline and many people do this for their events. But, creating a timeline that flows seamlessly and makes sense for how your events will move and flow throughout your event takes expertise and planning. Event planners can make this process much easier.
4. Acts as the Go-To Person
You may be hosting your event, but that doesn’t mean you should be the one that your event team is checking in with. – you should be enjoying your guests and your party. Event planners act as the go to person, so that you can sit back and enjoy!
3. Handles Crisis
More than just being the go-to person, event planners will be your trouble-shooters in case anything goes awry. Many times things go wrong that the hosts are not even aware of because their event planner handled it before it got out of hand.
2. Makes your Wishes a Reality
Event planners have the knowledge, expertise and production skills to make sure that what you want to happen is what happens. If you want to have fire dancers at your event, but have no idea the safety, licensing and logistics of making that happen, event planners can make it happen so that your event is exactly how you envision it.
1. Minimize Stresses and Maximize Fun
The number one reason to hire a planner is to enjoy, enjoy, enjoy. A host should never have to spend their event worrying; they should be celebrating the momentous occasion. Having a planner will allow you to do this!
