1. What are the advantages and disadvantages to the family of a couple who are planning their
wedding in engaging a professional wedding organizer?
ADVANTAGES
1.They'll take responsibilities off your plate.
Hiring a wedding planner allows you to hand off those more time-consuming responsibilities to
a professional. Your planner can schedule appointments, deal with vendors, and work through
the nitty-gritty issues of your day.
2. You'll get help with budgeting and scheduling.
Your wedding planner will be able to help you get the most for your money and will crunch
numbers and score discounts, getting you the best deals. Plus, they'll keep you on schedule,
ensuring you cross every to-do off your list in a timely manner.
3. They have tons of insider knowledge.
A wedding planner regularly communicates with florists, caterers, DJs, stationery designers,
hair stylists, and photographers. The wedding planner can potentially negotiate deals you
wouldn't get otherwise since they have an ongoing relationship with most local vendors.
4. They'll help communication with your vendors.
Securing a vendor comes with plenty of contracts and paperwork. Luckily, these fundamental
details are part of a wedding planner's job description.
5. You'll be exposed to new ideas.
Most brides-to-be spend hours scrolling through Pinterest and flipping through bridal
magazines in search of fresh inspiration. But a planner will have countless brilliant and original
ideas for your ceremony and reception, many of which can't be found online.
6. They'll offer advice on tricky situations.
A seasoned wedding planner has seen it all, and she'll be able to guide you through any tricky
situations that arise during big-day preparations.
7. You'll have tons of big-day assistance.
When your wedding day finally comes around, you'll feel great knowing that your planner is
taking command of the venue and vendors, coordinating logistics, and ensuring that everything
runs smoothly.
DISADVANTAGES
1. You lose some of the control
If you are the hands-on type, then hiring a wedding planner can be a hard pill to swallow.
Hiring a wedding planner would mean letting go of the reins and allowing them to take over.
This can be especially difficult if you have hired a wedding planner you don't quite connect
with.
2. It's an extra expense
Weddings tend to be very expensive and professional wedding planners are not cheap. If you
are on a tight budget, a planner is most likely not the best idea. Only hire a wedding planner if
your budget allows it, otherwise you could consider making use of your friends or family
members are willing to lend a helping hand.
3. Some of the intimacy is lost.
It might seem silly but a lot of brides prefer taking the reins when it comes to planning their
wedding. And with good reason, hiring a wedding planner always seems like a good idea until
you realise that a lot of the special intimate moments that come from planning are not yours.
You miss out on making crazy bride memories you'll laugh about when you are older. For
 sentimental bride-to-be's it would strongly be suggested to rethink hiring a wedding planner
seeing as you might feel detached from the big event at the end of the day.
2. How much professional wedding organizer expand their business by covering other events
1. Reach new customers with your event marketing
These event marketing tactics work well together, too. If you publish your event to Facebook,
Facebook’s robust search algorithms will surface it to the most geographically relevant users.
Amplify this effect by using paid advertising to reach targeted groups of users that match your
dream demographics.
2. Connect with your current customers through events
Events are also about connecting with your existing customers and loyal followers of your
brand. Social media is your key tool here as well, because it engages your existing community
leading up to and following an event
3. Reach people who can’t attend
With livestreamed video, events boost your business far beyond attendees. You can only
reach a certain number of people at the event itself. But with video broadcast on Facebook,
Instagram, and YouTube, that number is limitless. That’s why 40% of brands use livestreaming
to extend their events beyond physical attendees and carry forward their brand messages.
4. Partner with other brands for a bigger footprint
Sponsors and brand partners don’t just help you foot the bill for your event. They also amplify your brand.
5. Get to know your target audience better
Events help build your business in ways both obvious and subtle. From attracting new customers to learning more about the ones you already have,
there are many advantages to a well-executed event, and your event marketing is the avenue to maximizing your return on events.
