5 things your Wedding Planner won't tell you... But I have to!!!
OK ya’ll... I love my job...I truly do! But at times honestly isn’t always the best policy; the behind the scenes crisis’s we handle (that you cause), the family drama (that you cause), the vendor irritability (that you cause) we fix it all...this is what I wish I could tell you but I know you just “can’t handle the truth!” Here goes...
If you've been engaged for a week... And your organizer is thicker than mine I automatically tell you that I'm booked on your date. There is no way in hell I can handle the tornado that about to ensue.
Your parents are paying? I hope you understand you may not get what you want!
I wish you responded to my emails as quickly as you expect me to reply to yours...or text messages for that matter!
Reuse flowers... From ceremony to reception if at all possible. If you're planning to do this, tell your florist, otherwise your flowers may arrive one-dimensional, and won't look as nice in an open space. Flowers are a huge expense and if we can repurpose them lets do it.
I still cry at weddings. Being part of the family for that short amount of time is truly a gift and blessing. Even when I see my couples have their first baby makes me teary, I was a part of making that family happen :)
Lastly I keep secrets to protect you, I make decisions without asking to avoid stressing you out and I do it all in the name of love...your wedding is as personal for me as it is for you, so be kind.
