MAKOTI, YOU NEED HELP!

These are the 7 most important reasons why you need a professional to plan your wedding, according to Nono

1. To avoid stress.

2. To have a one-stop shop for everything –from décor and venue to photography, sound systems and catering.

3. To make sure you have fun while planning the big day – and to actually be able to enjoy the actual wedding day itself instead of worrying about suppliers and service providers struggling to find the venue or extra uninvited guests for whom there is no seating or food allocated.

4. To know, and work better on, your budget. More often than not, the figure you have in mind may need some tweaking, but with good reason. A professional also helps you save on unnecessary expenses and procures items and services at well negotiated rates.

5. To avoid last-minute checks. Everything that happens on the Big Day, from a planning perspective, has been rehearsed over and over again by the professionals.

6. To get proper advice and opinions from the experts beyond your well-meaning friends, family and prospective in-laws.

7. To get the wedding of your dreams. No bride or groom ever gets the exact wedding they’d always envisaged. But wedding planners help you get to as close to it as possible.
