Key Takeaways

  • A wedding planner should help you clarify your top priority, such as food, music, or location, and create a realistic budget to achieve it.
  • Taxes and gratuities are a couple of expenses that are easy to forget, but that an event planner should automatically incorporate into a budget.
  • A destination wedding could save money, but the number of attendees is likely the primary factor that affects the cost.
  • Modern weddings can mean splitting the cost between the couple and their families in any way that makes them comfortable. 
  • Working with a wedding planner is an investment; however, their experience can save time, prevent mistakes, and help you spend your budget efficiently.
