As exciting as the thought of your wedding is, and as many ideas as you have floating around, pulling it all together in a cohesive, successful wedding all while staying on budget is a lot of work. We repeat: A LOT of work!

Hiring a coordinator may seem like an easy way to keep costs down, but wedding specialist, Christina Petanovich, of Obsessed Events, says “Of all the times in your life to splurge and hire people to help you, your wedding day should be at the top of the list.”

There are other things you can do to help cut down on the amount of work before you. Her best advice: Include the set up and tear down of tables and chairs in the cost of rentals. It’s a nominal fee, and will eliminate a lot of extra work. A stress-free couple is a happy couple!
