How To Hire Your Destination Wedding Planner

Destination weddings have turned out to be increasingly popular in recent years as they are a beautiful way for couples to plan an unforgettable celebration with close family members and friends in a location that’s unique, exhilarating, and speaks who they’re.

A ceremony & reception far from home can be pleasurable, but the process from “Yes” to “I do” generally goes much more effortlessly if you have a professional destination wedding planner to help – particularly if you are getting married in a different time zone or where another language is spoken. However, before you pick your destination wedding planner, there are a few things you should know first.

Dive into research:

 

A destination wedding demands even more research in comparison to a ceremony in your hometown. Start by reading reviews of wedding planners in your selected region. This is, in fact, one of the simplest ways to gain confidence in your potential wedding planner. Reviews are unbelievably powerful since they are written by individuals & couples who’ve already worked with your wedding planners and who know better than anyone what you can expect.

Beware of the "planner handoff.”

 

Many planning firms have crews of people who work collectively, which can be a positive asset to you & your wedding. However, it’s critical to ask if you are going to get handed off to someone, different from the individual whom you spoke with initially. It can be annoying to attach with someone really well, and then find that you are not actually going to be working with that individual all through the planning process, particularly for a destination wedding. You can avoid this by asking who you will be working with, and request to speak with that person before you sign an agreement.

Appoint a planner who speaks the same language as you:

 

To make easy communication, get in touch with a wedding planner who speaks the same language that you speak pretty well. Google translate can only do so much when you are at the mercy of a language barrier. It is critical that you can interpret your vision & converse your needs to this person who, not just will be running the whole show, but you’ll have to work closely with over several months.
