Question 1

Do you offer a "day-of-coordination" package?

Accepted Answer

h&b only offers white-glove planning experiences. In my personal opinion, there is no such thing as "day-ofcoordination". In my eyes, it is a disservice to my couples for them to not be able to take advantage of my expert opinion and guidance throughout their wedding planning process.

Question 2

My venue already has an in-house wedding coordinator. Why do I need to hire an independent planner?

Accepted Answer

A lot of times they are promoted or move on to another venue for a "better" opportunity. Also, they do not have the time to truly focus on your wedding day. They have 60+ weddings and events that they have to manage at one time (at times they have to manage multiple events on your wedding day), at the same time as booking new events to maintain their quota. On top of all of this, they are only able to provide you with vendor recommendations, which are vendors that have been to that venue a bunch of times. Those vendors are not properly vetted to ensure that they are the perfect fit for you.

Question 3

Will you do the set-up and clean-up for my event?

Accepted Answer

h&b does set-up within reason. We do not set up tables and chairs or place table cloths (unless unforeseen circumstances present themselves). We will set up small personal items such as but not limited to escort cards, card box, welcome signage, small flora arrangements, and card box. We do not sweep, mop, or remove the trash, or buss tables. We can assist you with hiring the proper team members if your venue does not offer these services.

Question 4

I want my wedding to be the wedding that I am envisioning, will h&b just do what they want?

Accepted Answer

This is your wedding, your way. I am here to guide you throughout the process. I'm here to hold your hand throughout the process. I will provide you with expert advice for wedding etiquette, provide you with the pros and cons for each planning element, as well as elevate your vision to ensure your wedding day is more that you were envisioning.

Question 5

This all sounds wonderful, however, it seems expensive, will this fit within my budget?

Accepted Answer

The h&b planning experience fits within most budgets. Typically a wedding planner is able to financially save you anywhere from 10%-25% within your overall wedding budget. I pass along my vendor discounts and find venues and vendors that will bring value to your event. This alone will offset a hefty portion of the cost of collaborating with h&b. On top of the financial savings, you will be able to save so much time during the planning process since your planner will provide you with a "blueprint' for planning. You will have more time to spend with your fiance, family, and friends, and to live your normal day-to-day life.

	Full-service planning	Partial planning
Description	This experience is ideal for the couple that wants to take full advantage of having a wedding planner and truly immerse themselves in the H&B experience.	With this planning option couples typically have their venue and a few other vendors secured and I pick up with event design, securing room blocks/guest accommodations, remaining vendors, and logistics planning.
