Sparks Weddings

Services offered at Sparks Weddings cover three main areas of an event: planning, design and coordination. Each can be purchased separately or in a package. Planning the event includes everything that needs to be done before the wedding day. A planner knows all the steps of planning a wedding and has a thorough understanding of the etiquette of a great event. She will make sure the schedule is followed, that everything stays within the budget and that the vendors offer their best service to the bride and groom. Designing and event has to do with the visual aspect of a wedding, like the color palette or the theme. The bride and groom often have many ideas that they like but the event designer will make them come together and push them further to deliver a breathtaking environment for the wedding. Coordination on the day-of includes managing the schedule, making sure the vendors are where the should be and taking care of every single detail so the bride and groom can enjoy their wedding as guests!

A good wedding planner will not only save you time and energy but she might even save you money! She will take the event schedule in charge, will follow up with vendors and will be the go-to person for any questions or concerns. It takes an average of 150 hours to plan a wedding. The bride and groom to be often realize too late how time consuming it can be and can feel like they are overwhelmed by everything that needs to be done. Your wedding planner will also act as a neutral person during the planning. She is not part of the family nor is she a friend so it will be easier for her to keep the choices in line with what you really want.

Since Summer Saturdays are very popular dates for weddings, your planner's schedule will rapidly be booked on those dates. Hiring your planner 9-12 months before the wedding date is a minimum to ensure enough time for the planning and make sure the vendors and venues you choose to have for your wedding are not already booked.

You won't need to have a defined idea of what you want your wedding to be like on the first meeting. Here are the details your wedding planner will be asking about: • Preliminary budget • Event date (month or season) • Event style (vintage, boho, grandiose, classic, etc.) • Number of guests (preliminary)
