who would know best but you and your fiance.you should be the one to plan the whole thing but when the day is finally there,let someone be in charge,feel pretty,it is your day.igt only happens once in a lifetime so you better feel you are the center of attention.you should not feel the stress of thinking is the food already served,are the bridesmaid complete,are all guest seated?where is the ring?that kind of thing.let one of your friend handle that!:)

I would be in charge and the planner which helped to form the whole affair would be the one to carry it out. I could concentrate on my day while she carried out my orders. She would oversee that all went well and be the one to fix anything that could err.

I would not have a wedding planner do my wedding, I am the one in charge and am the one who is pretty much doing everything. Though it would be nice to have someone to do the little stuff, I think it is making our wedding more special by doing it ourselves.

i'm getting maried this year and so far i'm enjoying every bit of preparation i'm doing. i go to bridal fairs and expo to seek new ideas & get suppliers. in that way i'm personally attached to my own event. wedding preparation should not be stressful. it has to be exciting... on the other hand, an On-The-Day Coordinator is ok because you'll be sure that the wedding will run smoothly.

a wedding is a girl's dream since we are still little princesses then,picturing ourselves in a clean,white dress with a long trail,with flowers petals scattered everywhere and you are the center of attraction.it may be toxic to accomplish but all worth it.it would be really best to have a coordinator on the day itself.hope it would be a day to remember!

I am married and i enjoyed every minute of my wedding preparation. I dont have the wedding planner to plan and do things for me. I think its just a matter of giving yourself enough time to prepare what you want for your wedding. I am really proud of what i did for my wedding, its me and my hubby's choice or decision that have the "say". I did almost every preparation for the wedding but then again it's nice to have someone to be with you for whatever reason. Though main decision comes from you its always nice to know that someone's there as your side kick.

actually, wedding planners are just your guide in planning your wedding. ofcourse you are still responsible of what you want, the concept of your wedding and etc. Planners are experts on weddings so they will give you tips and suggestions, it's up to you if you'll approved their idea :-)

I'm married. My wedding planners were my aunt and my mom. My aunt is a professional wedding planner. My mom and i just told her what we wanted. So meaning to say that it's totally our decision made on the outcome of the event. She's sort of an advisor and ensure things were prepared according our needs and wants. I think wedding planner is important but our involvement in ensuring the event goes as what we want it to be is what's most important.

you are so lucky you have your aunt with you. it's hard when there is no one in charge especially on the wedding day itself.having someone who can help you with the preparations makes you relaxed and feel you are the beautiful bride,not the harrassed bride,lol!when i got married i had no professional wedding planner but io had some friends who was in charge of the flowers,entertainment,etc so i got to enjoy the whole night.

i would love to do it personaly, i know how hard it is as i have helped my friend in organizing her wedding. thought there will be a lot of pressure but surely it's a lot of fun and will be a memorable one too as they said it will be a once in a life time occasion (if you will not marry again).
