Events: Why you need a wedding planner to help you navigate this pandemic



If you are getting married or planned on getting married in 2020 and 2021 but you don't have a planner then you really need to have a rethink. Right now, whether youā€™re planning a wedding at home or abroad, there are so many moving parts surrounding COVID-19 that you'll be wondering what to do and how to navigate it all. It is is very important to book a planner so they can help you navigate this crazy industry and offer up options.

The truth is that the coronavirus has disrupted the Event industry, there is so much uncertainty and everything is all up in the air. My first recommendation is to postpone not cancel, its okay to be angry, sad or even cry but its important to know that its not a matter of if its a matter of when, Your day will come and when it does it will be the most amazing thing. When we can all come together and celebrate, there will be nothing else like it.

Below are some key reason why you need a planner to help navigate this period:

Emotions

Your emotions are all over the place, you don't know if you want to cry that your big day has been pushed forward to be relieved that you now have more time to plan, or cry that you don't know when this will be over. This is where a planner comes in, you'll need someone that can at the whole picture from a realistic point of view not emotional to help with making the right decisions. So all you have to do is breathe and find a calm centre.

Industry Leverage

All vendors are trying to find a balance between doing what they think is best for the clients and what is sustainable for their business, vendors are trying to be as accommodating as much as they can be to clients right because they understand that implication of cancellation will be more devastating, so they are offering discount and a lot of flexibility. If these vendors know these request is coming from an event planner they will be willing to stretch even further because of the relationship that must have been built and the probability of benefiting more business from the planner in the future because the event industry is based mostly on relationships. But keep in mind that these vendors will also walk within the line of reasonability because they will also want to sustain their businesses so your planner will not bully your vendors. You will need someone with leverage in the industry to be your advocate. When push comes to shove, if youā€™re forced to navigate hard circumstances, a well-connected advocate will be able to get you further than you can ever get on your own.

Experience

While itā€™s true that no event planner operating today has ever seen a pandemic of this scope and size in their lifetime, itā€™s also true that the type of work weā€™re doing now is not new to us. Wedding planners are used to troubleshooting and adjusting plans based on current circumstances. It's what we are trained for, prepared for and have done through the entire course of our career. You will need to change all of your plans in the days and weeks before your wedding because of this pandemic hence you will need professional assistance in doing so.

Financial budget development, forecasting, and management

Creating a budget is one of the most important parts of wedding planning during a worldwide crisis, and youā€™ll feel even more unsettled about your lack of insight or control over what youā€™ll need to spend if you don't have an event planner. Itā€™s never advisable to make a significant financial investment without a clear understanding of the path and commitments ahead of you. As a wedding planner responsibility to help our clients be good stewards of their resources very seriously.

 

Hiring a wedding planner is arguably the most important step in event planning, a lot of people think this a luxury but this is not true, having a planner will make all moving parts of the wedding will run smoothly without you having to worry about anything, your planner is basically your problem solver.

When your wedding day finally comes around, you'll feel great knowing that your planner is taking command of the venue and vendors, coordinating logistics, and ensuring that everything runs smoothly. If any issues arise during the ceremony or reception, she'll be the first one on the scene and you won't need to worry about anything except enjoying your special day with loved ones.

I first heard of Luxebox from ycfonlinedirectory.blogspot.com  and I decided to check out the website  luxebox.info.com  . I was so happy to find out that we now have our own subscription box in Nigeria. I love seeing the unboxing reviews from bloggers abroad and I used to wonder when it will come to Nigeria, so you can imagine the excitement. Immediately, I subscribed but the box wasn't available at that moment, hence I waited for the next one which was in October. I will give a brief run down of what Luxebox is.

My Makeup Wishlist

Hello sugars, happy independence day! I know most people think we have nothing to celebrate but the fact that we are still one nation and Nigeria has not disintegrated is enough cause for celebration. So my post today will be about the products mostly new release that I'll like to add to my kit. OBSESSIVE COMPULSIVE COSMETICS LIP TAR  The fact that this is matte is the main reason I love it. I love anything matte and this has four matte shades and two metallic shades, there is a lot of hype about this product and there are also some not so good reviews so I'll hopefully get it soon and do a review. I have not seen this at all in Nigeria but I heard its available at Giffty's Daughter (thats means it will be expensive), I will definately check it out. I JUST DISCOVERED THAT THIS IS AVALIABLE ON BEAUTYKINK AND KONGA  BUY HERE ON BEAUTY KINK FOR #4800 BUY HERE ON KONGA FOR #3800  TOO FACED MELTED LIQUIFIED LONG WEAR LIPSTICKS  This got nice rev...
