Some might argue the topic of “why hire a planner?” should have come up earlier in these discussions. The truth is…right about now…couples start to realize just how much they could use a little professional help. No mistaking brides plan their own weddings every day and the events are, by all accounts, a success. In hindsight though, most tell a tale of how the details and planning took over their lives and in the end…the money would have been well spent on a seasoned professional. Really, there are lots of reasons why you should hire a wedding planner, but for our purposes today, we asked a local pro we know to weigh-in on the topic.
Meet Charyl Williams of Social Butterfly Events. We’ve had the pleasure of working with Charyl on numerous weddings over the past seven years and we think couples who have the question “Do I really need a wedding planner?” will find their answer here…
