The importance of a wedding consultant...

Last year I attended over 30 weddings, and as the photographer you get to see everything that is going on throughout the day. The importance of having a wedding consultant/coordinator is obvious to me after seeing how much planning needs to be put into the wedding, and all the little things that can go awry.

I asked my friend Tracey of Your Las Vegas Wedding Concierge to share some insight into why you should consider hiring a wedding consultant to help you plan your wedding:

1) A Wedding Consultant can assist in finding the most suitable, talented professional wedding resources who are matched to the couples budget, preferred style and personalities with respect to every element of your wedding; not just photography. It's especially important to have a wedding consultant as your trusted resource when planning a destination wedding as your local point person who can help you sort out the very best from all the rest to help you save valuable time and add to your comfort level as it always not possible to meet every single wedding professional in person before the wedding.

2) A Professional Wedding Consultant is able to guide their clients to help them make the best choices for their wedding day so that the events of the day can flow as smoothly and seamlessly as possible, ensure that the vision they have for the celebration is achieved and also takes into consideration not only their enjoyment and comfort but their guests as well so that the day is memorable for all the right reasons!

3) Finally, a professional Wedding Consultant will be the point person to help pull all of these elements together, build a cohesive time line, collaborate, communicate and confirm event details with the entire selected wedding team to ensure that the client wishes according to their contracts are in place. Your wedding consultant will be there to act quickly to eradicate any issues that come up, assist the bride and groom and help you stay calm and enjoy your day and finally let you and your family enjoy your wedding as guests at the beautiful party you have put so much love and time into planning.

Tracey was the consultant behind Kaylynn and Bill's fabulous wedding last September, and as you can see her influence helped create a stunning wedding.
