đź’• 5 Things to Ask Your Wedding Planner Before You Book
Choosing your wedding planner is one of the most important decisions you’ll make during your planning journey. This is the person who will guide you, support you, and make sure your big day runs seamlessly — so it’s important to find the perfect fit.
Before you sign that contract, here are five important questions every couple should ask their wedding planner to make sure you’re in the best hands.
1. “What services do you offer?”
Every planner’s role can look a little different. Some offer full-service planning from start to finish, while others specialize in day-of coordination or partial planning.
Ask for a clear breakdown of what’s included in each package — like timeline creation, vendor communication, or setup management — so you know exactly what to expect.
At Blissful Weds, we offer full, partial, and day-of coordination packages designed to meet you wherever you are in your planning journey.
2. “How do you handle wedding day challenges?”
No matter how carefully you plan, something unexpected always happens — a late vendor, a sudden weather change, or a missing boutonniere.
This is where your planner truly shines. Ask how they handle stress and problem-solving to make sure they’ll keep things calm and organized behind the scenes.
A great coordinator handles issues quietly and efficiently — often before you even know there was a problem.
3. “Can I see examples of your past work or weddings?”
Photos and testimonials tell you a lot about a planner’s style, organization, and attention to detail.
Even if you’re hiring a newer planner, ask to see inspiration boards, sample timelines, or mock designs to get a sense of their creative vision and professionalism.
At Blissful Weds, we love sharing our favorite moments and designs that reflect timeless, romantic elegance.
4. “How do you communicate during the planning process?”
Clear communication is key to a stress-free experience.
Ask how your planner prefers to stay in touch — whether it’s through email, phone calls, or scheduled check-ins — and how often you’ll hear from them.
You should always feel supported and confident that your planner is keeping everything on track.
5. “What makes you different from other planners?”
Every planner brings a unique energy, experience, and approach to the table.
This question helps you connect personally and see if your personalities align — because you’ll be working closely together!
