I run a small wedding supplies shop in Ontario. Most couples I deal with plan their own wedding. That makes me wonder what does wedding planner actually do and does this profession make good money? Because most people would rather spend on the wedding than hiring a planner.

My husband and I had complete control over our wedding. We planned everything and even catered it ourselves. We made all the food up before hand and a few of our friends volenteered to help set it up. I heard about how all brides get stressed, but by doing it ourselves we had all the information and if anything went wrong we had ourselves to blame. It was very cost efficiant also. The wedding and reception went off without a hitch. I enjoyed it also. It was a great experiance for me and my husband.

We went to the Marriage Commissioner, my foster mother gave us a reception at her house, and my father had the wedding dinner at a dining hall over a store that was across from the Pacific National Exhibition near Hastings Street. When we went to the Marriage Commissioner, I felt as if we were over in the U.S.S.R, there was no ceremony, just signing of papers, and I started to think, "No wonder couples do not want to get married if this is what a civil wedding is like. People do need a little ceremony. It certainly would encourage people to get married again.

I guess it's true for some people. I had one person who told me about the same thing. She was married young, just signed a paper and small party at home. They then got divorced after over 10 yrs. Now for her second wedding, she wanted it done the way she wanted it done. She knows its more money, but on her first wedding they saved big bucks and yet it didn't work so she's not going to do the same for the second. the reversed also happened. Another lady's first wedding was quite luxurious and didn't work. Now she has kids, will marry again, this time just family and relatives and reception at her family's huge backyard.
