Tips For Choosing Good Maui Wedding Planners

By Marissa Velazquez


A wedding planner is one of the most important people in any wedding ceremony. This is the person charged with planning of the entire function. A wrong choice of planner will thus lead to poor flow of events. This is why you need to be extremely thorough when choosing one. There are a few factors that when considered will help you pick good Maui wedding planners. Some of these factors are discussed below.

The easiest way to start the search for a nuptial planner is to seek referrals. Other people who have engaged wedding planners before are in good position to recommend to you good ones amongst them. You can also seek referrals from other nuptial vendors like the deejay, florists and caterers. These are people who rub shoulders with planners on a regular basis. As such, they will be in a very good position to give recommendations.

Part of the work of a nuptial coordinator is to look for other vendors. It will therefore be important to look for someone who has contacts of various vendors. This will make your work very easy and he will also be able to negotiate with them on your behalf.

You also need a planner who will be able to work within your budget. Many a times, your planner will even be helping you create the budget and move funds from one item to the other. This is something that needs a planner who can comfortably work within your budget. If you are on a tight budget, you should look for a coordinator who is comfortable with such budgets.

He/she must also charge reasonable fees for their work. Never settle on an expensive planner thinking that they are the best. What you need to do is window shop. Request quotes from not less than three planners and compare them against the range of services they will be providing you. From here, you will be able to make an informed decision on who to work with.

You can also ask your potential coordinator for reference. If he has worked for other people before, he should be able to give you their contacts so that you can find more about him from these clients. It is not a good idea to hire a coordinator who has never presided over any similar function before.

The planner you pick must also have a contract for you as well as the other vendors. In most cases, it is always the planner who is in charge of all conversation with the other vendors. He must therefore have your best interest at heart especially when negotiating for prices.

With the above tips in mind when looking for Maui wedding planners, you should be able to get a good one. It is also advisable to always start the search early enough. This will help you avoid last minute rush which may force into hiring someone you have not vetted enough.
