10 Questions to Ask Your Wedding Planner
If you’ve entrusted someone else with planning your wedding, make sure to ask them these questions.
A wedding planner is the person responsible for ensuring your big day runs smoothly. Their professionalism determines the overall quality of your wedding, so choosing the right planner is essential. Before starting your collaboration, it’s important to ask the right questions to see if they truly match your needs and can organize the wedding the way you envision it.
📌 Here are 10 essential questions to help you choose the right expert:
1. What experience do you have in wedding planning?
Ask how many weddings they’ve organized, the complexity of those events, and how they handled challenges.
Experience is especially important for large-scale weddings.
Also ask if they’ve ever encountered unexpected issues and how they managed them.
2. What styles do you prefer to work with?
Find out if they’ve worked with the style you want — whether it’s classic, boho, vintage, or luxury.
3. Can you provide feedback from previous clients?
Ask for reviews, photos, or videos from past weddings.
This helps you visualize their work and style.
4. What services are included in your package?
Ideally, the package should include design, venue decoration, music, and technical support, so everything is coordinated in one place.
5. How is the wedding budget planned?
Find out if they can adapt the budget to your preferences and help you avoid unnecessary expenses.
6. How far in advance should planning begin?
Large weddings usually need 6–12 months of planning, while smaller ones may require 4–6 months.
The planner should manage time efficiently.
7. What solutions do you offer for emergencies?
Ask if they are ready to handle unexpected situations — bad weather, technical issues, or late suppliers — quickly and effectively.
8. Will you be present on the wedding day?
Clarify whether the planner will be personally present or delegate to their team.
Personal presence often ensures everything runs smoothly.
9. Can you negotiate better prices with vendors?
Professional planners often have connections and can help you save money by negotiating with photographers, musicians, or venues.
10. How will communication work during planning?
Clarify how you’ll stay in touch — via email, phone calls, or meetings — to ensure smooth coordination.
You’re now one step closer to planning your wedding the right way.
