Do You need a Wedding Planner?

That my dear is the million dollar questionLong before wedding planners became a hit in Nigeria people planned wonderful wedding celebrations themselves. The success of those celebrations can be primarily attributed to the hard work of the parents.

Yes for a fact! You see the parents can help make sure all the behind the scenes activities were completed. So getting a wedding planner is really a way of taking the load off your parent's shoulder and on to another's. So having a wedding planner is very good. How do you select a wedding planner? If you have a friend that is a wedding planner then I would say go with him/her. The reason is she already knows you and your taste.

If you don't have a wedding planner friend (or friend of a friend) then a good place to start is the internet. (Omooba Bridal is currently working on getting your tried and tested vendors so check back soon for a list) The most important thing when working with a wedding planner is that you provide a guideline on what you want. Also you need to be assertive because saying things like "any one" or "you decide" can lead to huge disappointments.

Be specific on issues. If you need time to think tell the wedding planner so. You can say things like "I need time to think about it" or "I want to discuss this with my mum" etc

Make sure you appoint only one person to oversee the work of the wedding planner. Too many cooks in the kitchen can make a mess.Set a budget and try to stick to it. Let the wedding planner know what you will and will not spend that way she can plan well.

On your wedding day you should not have to do anything. Just sit back and look beautiful that is the only job you'll have!And don't forget to pick your wedding gown from www.omoobabridal.com
