DO I NEED TO HIRE AN EVENT PLANNER?

A question we think lots of couples or individuals ask themselves at the beginning of their planning is, why hire an event planner? 

We hear you, how hard can it be right? The honest answer, is really, really hard. We have a job for a reason and we pride ourselves on being an invaluable asset to the clients we work with. Everyone always says how it was the best decision but don’t take our word for it, we’ve compiled some of the top reasons that clients have given us as to why everyone should hire an event planner. The top five we hear the most are;

IT TAKES THE STRESS AWAY 

On so many levels. Sourcing suppliers, negotiating, planning, considering the logistics, overseeing the get in and get out, being there on the day. Every little detail is considered by your event planner so that you can focus on the bigger picture. Planning an event should be fun, not stressful and we make it our aim to be that way.

WE BRING THE CALM

Generally speaking, you’ve seen it all as an event planner. There’s very little that will freak you out. Because we’ve dealt with most situations, we’re able to respond calmly and plan with a cool head knowing that we’re unlikely to encounter a situation we can’t resolve. For someone who doesn’t plan every day, this is very reassuring.

WE CUT OUT HUNDREDS OF EMAILS

Our job is to have all the conversations for you. Our clients often comment that they feel they’re not having to do anything which is the perfect comment for us to get! We’ll go back and forth with suppliers and the venue ensuring that we cut down on email traffic for you. We’ll then present clear options for you to consider.

WE NARROW DOWN THE OPTIONS

If you search ‘Event venue London’ it throws up 74 million options. 74 million!! We take the time to properly understand your options, narrow down the ideas and present you with a manageable amount to consider. We find we tend to present 10-15 venues to a client – sometimes fewer. We’ll keep going until we find the perfect solution but rest assured that our experience means that we have the best black book and we just know what works.

WE RUN THE SHOW

On the day, you can be a guest at the event. That’s the biggest compliment we can get really. We want all our clients to simply arrive, sign off and then relax. We work away behind the scenes to ensure that everything is seamless and runs perfectly. So many of our clients say this is one of their favourite aspects of having a planner.
