A checklist for knowing if you need a wedding planner. Of course, I'll say you always need one, who wants to have to "work" on their wedding? You should enjoy your wedding and hire someone to do all the work, or part of the work for you!
__ You're way behind on your checklist and schedule.
__ You both work full-time jobs that will prevent you from meeting with vendors on weekdays
__ You don't have other outside help such as an involved mother-of-the-bride, helpful bridesmaids, or knowledgeable friends
__ You don't know many people who can give you reliable vendor recommendations
__ You are having a destination wedding
__ There are personality conflicts between the couple, their parents, and/or other people
__ You're excited to be married, but just thinking about wedding planning fills you with dread
__ You're having a very short engagement
__ You can envision your wedding, you have no idea how to make your dreams come true
__ You can't even envision your wedding
__ You're feeling overwhelmed, stressed, and generally wishing that you had decided to elope.
But keep in mind that because of inside connections and experience that allows them to avoid common mistakes, hiring a wedding planner might be the most cost-effective move in the end.

My wife and I used a wedding planner and it certainly made things a lot smoother for us. Hey, when you get the chance, I have a short video I think you, as a wedding planner, are going to appreciate -- http://www.ahamoment.com/vote/saundra -- if you like it, click and vote for it and it might wind up as an aha moment TV commercial next year.
