The World of a New Jersey Wedding Planner
How much do you really know about a wedding planner? There are many misconceptions and a lot of people don't fully understand the important role of a wedding planner, so let's examine this further.
The best description probably is this: a wedding planner is a professional who assists with the design, planning and management of a client's wedding. Of course, weddings are significant events in people's lives and as such, couples are often willing to spend a large amount of money to ensure that their weddings are well-organized. Wedding planners are used by couples who work long hours and have little spare time available for sourcing and managing wedding venues and wedding suppliers.
Professional wedding planners are based throughout New Jersey and there are experienced planners available like Michelle Perez of Knot Just Wedding Events. Planners generally charge either a percentage of the total wedding cost, or a flat fee.
Planners are also popular with couples planning a destination wedding, where the documentation and paperwork can be complicated. Any country where a wedding is held requires different procedures depending on the nationality of each the bride and the groom. For instance, US citizens marrying in Italy require a Nulla Osta (affidavit sworn in front of the US consulate in Italy), plus an Atto Notorio (sworn in front of the Italian consulate in the US or at a court in Italy), and legalization of the above. Some countries instead have agreements and the couple can get their No Impediment forms from their local registrar and have it translated by the consulate in the country of the wedding. A local wedding planner can take care of the different procedures.
An experienced wedding planner will quickly earn your trust and eliminate all of the stress that is usually associated with an important event.
