Help or Hindrance?

Q. My family are only trying to help but they all want to organise my wedding without knowing or asking what I want. Who do I choose to help?

A. Simple answer- Hire a Wedding Co-ordinator. A high percentage of my Clients have chosen to hire me for that reason. This way you can tell them that you did not want them to have the trouble and stress of organising the wedding and it will allow them to enjoy the day. If they do insist on getting involved, I tell the bride to give them my telephone number, I deal with this a lot and will make them feel involved and useful, whilst still keeping you in control. Many Brides Mums tell me that they are grateful to me for taking the responsibility away from them, and that they enjoyed the day more for that reason.
