We all love Jennifer Lopez in “The Wedding Planner” right? And even though that is arguably one of the best Rom Coms of all time (hello young Matthew McConaughey) some would rather skip all of the planning and walk right down the aisle without a care in the world. Enter Charming the Carolinas- Your new besties when it comes to all things wedding.
Once you say “YES!” you get bombarded with questions and plans and timelines and not to mention targeted ads. While some brides-to-be thrive on making plans and crossing off something on their “to-do” list is the highlight of their day, others aren’t quite like that. If having a fairy godmother to answer all your emails in regards to vendors or having a big sister remind you of the dress fitting you have on Thursday sounds like an answer to your prayers, then having a wedding planner may be for you! There are all kinds of different types of wedding planners, partial planning, month out planning, day of coordination, total planning and everything in between.
You can substitute the title wedding planner with wedding expert. We know, love, and breathe all things wedding. From the very first call, we are able to get your vibe and understand what you are wanting out of a venue, caterer, photographer etc. From there, we can align you with the most trusted vendors in your area, price range and your vision. Once vendors have been chosen, we are the middleman and are always in communication with you and all of your vendors. Reminding you all along the way of appointments that need to be attended, invoices that need to be paid, decisions that need to be made and everything in between!
Some of the highlights of having a wedding planner are obviously communication. If you have a full-time job, it might be a little overwhelming to be in constant contact with all of the vendors. Or another scenario, your big day rolls around and all of these vendors are coming up to you, your mom, your maid of honor, the venue owner (who may or may not be onsite) and are wondering; “where do I need to set up?”, “Does this venue have a time we need to be out by?”, “Can I come early to set up?”, “Is there another event that is happening the day before or after?”. All of these small questions can really add up and put pressure on you as a Bride, not to mention- you probably do not know all the answers. That is a huge plus to hiring a wedding planner- our job is to quite literally know EVERYTHING there is to know about the venue, the scheduling, the timeline, the vendors, your vision, and anything else you can think of. We anticipate any need before it has a chance to become a need.
At the end of the day, we as Wedding Planners want nothing more than for you to ENJOY every second of your wedding day. The set up- got it handled. Arrival of vendors- under control. Sticking to the timeline- don’t even worry about that. Drunk uncle- yeah, we can deal with him too. Bottom line, if you want your day to be stress free and be able to truly live in the moment and appreciate the love that you and your partner share, and catch up with your friends and family without a care in the world.
So, to all the couples out there.. Invest in a wedding planner because YOU DESERVE IT! Charming the Carolinas Events- your local wedding experts 😊
XOXO,
