Planning your wedding can be a exciting experience, but it could seem overwhelming as well--especially if the wedding isn't
going to be in your own home town.
We've made a few short lists of wedding planners with whom we have direct experience. Our purpose here is not to be
an all-inclusive guide, but rather to bring to you some folks we work with regularly and we trust.

| The role of the wedding planner |
|
The role of the wedding planner has changed a lot over the
years, as Robbi Ernst III explains in his book
Great Wedding Tips from the Experts:
|
"The most important renaissance in the wedding industry has been the move from "dabblers"--well-intentioned
people who simply enjoy helping brides plan their weddings--to wedding consultants--serious entrepreneurs
who have developed their talents and created professional businesses.
Today, it is not enough to enjoy having planned one's own wedding. Today's consultants are men and women trained
in the administrative and legal affairs of their industry, taking on the role as the team leader of the more than
twenty-five vendors that a wedding couple will hire to provide services on the wedding day."
