A wedding planner vs. online wedding planning

01 April 2011 06h30 | Ekudeni

Planning a wedding is often a long process. With so many options, ideas, colours, concepts and styles available, deciding on a theme or even the basics can be difficult.

Hiring a wedding planner has become a popular approach to planning a wedding. In fact, with couples being so busy with work these days, a wedding planner is often the easiest and most convenient option for many engaged couples. However with the internet being one of the most reliable forms of information today, online wedding planning is something that more couples are employing.

Online wedding planning uses web application software that acts as a planning tool. These systems provide various tools that assist the bride and groom with each aspect of the wedding planning.

Task list
Budget planner
Appointment diary
Planner and manager of invitations
Vendor contacts
Guest list
Reception seating
Menu planning
Wedding event timelines
Thank you cards

By using online wedding planning, couples are able to keep track of the planning procedure and best of all be hands on with the process. Many couples like the idea of planning and organising their wedding themselves, without the assistance of a professional planner. This tool allows couples to do this. Online wedding planning also allows for multiple users, allowing the bride and groom to get their wedding party involved with the planning, if need be.

Some online wedding planning software provides tools that assist the bride and groom with specific tasks.

Writing vows
Daily planning schedules
Wedding registry monitoring
Music library
Honeymoon checklists

Hiring a wedding planner often reduces the amount of stress that couples deal with whilst planning a wedding. Having someone who is able to take instruction and put a plan into action, allows the couple to enjoy their engagement instead of worrying about details. There are a number of benefits to hiring a personal wedding planner.

Access to knowledge and resources
Scheduling expertise
Ideas and creativity
Up to date with styles and trends
Valuable advice
Deals with all vendors
Deals with any issues that may arise

A wedding planner is not only there throughout the wedding planning process, but on the day of the wedding too. Ensuring that everything runs smoothly is important, not only for the bride and groom, but also for the wedding party and guests.

A wedding planner will be able to keep seating, catering, music and all scheduled items on track as well as assist the bridesmaids, groomsmen and other wedding party participants. This allows the bride (and groom) to focus on their special day and not have the added stress of worrying about times, details and issues that may arise along the way.
