Why Hire a Wedding Planner?
By hiring an AAWP Professional Wedding Planner, you have taken the first step toward having a totally stress-free wedding experience!
Professional wedding consultants plan weddings and receptions for a fee. They design their clients' weddings and receptions to meet their specifications within their budgets. They may plan part of it or all of it; that's up to you. They formulate a plan; carry out the plan; and follow-up to make sure everything runs smoothly. Their fee may be a flat amount or it may be a certain percentage of the total wedding cost, while some consultants are paid solely by the vendors they contract for their clients' weddings, i.e.: photographers, florists, caterers, etc. Many times clients are skeptical of consultants and will ask, "Exactly what do you do?"
Here are the advantages of hiring a consultant:
In conclusion, a good wedding consultant offers you experience, answers your questions, calms your fears and plans your wedding logically and rationally within your budget.
They are, in effect, worth their weight in gold.

Here are the advantages of hiring a consultant:
- If you have the money but not the time, a wedding consultant is the solution. They alleviate stress, legwork, aggravation, and save time.
- Or, your family may live out-of-town and not be able to help you, making for a very stressful situation (that a consultant will alleviate).
- If hosting a large wedding, 150 or more guests, and you've never planned one before, it's wise to hire a wedding consultant for their experience and expertise.
- Semi-formal or formal, traditional, at-home weddings require a wedding consultant. At-home weddings require tons of planning and work including hiring caterers, dance floors, linens, silverware, entertainment and decorations.... The list is endless. For this type of wedding, a consultant is a must!
- Weddings are expensive. You can't afford to make mistakes, or hire irresponsible vendors, or sign on the dotted line-not knowing if you're protected. A consultant's expertise is invaluable.
- You save money with a consultant. After all, they know the ins and outs of wedding planning, where to cut costs and how to save you dollars.
In conclusion, a good wedding consultant offers you experience, answers your questions, calms your fears and plans your wedding logically and rationally within your budget.
