Why hire a Planner/Coordinator?
As couples begin thinking about their wedding, they are often confused as to how much to spend, where to obtain specialized services, and how to choose the right wedding professionals. These worries often mount as quickly as the cost of the wedding.

After the euphoria wears off and the reality settles in, it's shocking to discover how much preparation is involved. Couples are faced with decisions about everything from which Venue to choose to invitation wording to planning their honeymoon.
The average wedding can take more than 250 hours just to plan. With today's hectic lifestyles, you may not have time to compare all the options, to make sure you get the best deal, and make sure all the details are in place.
Wouldn't you like to enjoy your day without the worries of dealing with each professional you hired? What would you do if the florist didn't come on time, or if the table settings were not placed properly? How do you know you are getting the best service for the right price? Can you imagine walking around in your beautiful wedding gown with your veil wrapped around one arm and the other hand holding not your gorgeous bouquet, but a list of details that must get done that day?

I have a coordinator included with my package at my venue, so why do I need a Wedding Day Coordinator from For Your Event Planning? Isn't it the same thing?
You do not have a Wedding Day Coordinator...you have a banquet manager.
We work with the banquet manager to ensure your reception is everything it should be. Our attention to the details allows the banquet manager to put their focus on their staff to ensure that your dinner reception is absolutely perfect. The venue has hired the banquet manager and/or Maitre' d to work for them. You have hired us at FYEP to work for YOU.
Can I contact my Coordinator at any time of day?
Yes, FYEP offers unlimited phone and email consultants.
Do you have refereces available and may I contact some of your former clients to see what it's like to work with you?
Absolutely! I am more than happy to connect you with some of our past clients with whom we've enjoyed a great working relationship. You can also read some of our past clients' testimonials on the PRAISE page of our site.
