How to Save Money on your Wedding? Hire a Professional.

Did you know the average wedding can take more than 200 hours just to plan? Wow!

“Some couples may not have the time to compare choices or prices to make sure they are getting the best deal and ensure all the details are in place. Wedding coordinators do not make decisions for you, but guide and assist you in making informed decisions,” says Katie Peterson, owner of The Simple Solution, a Minneapolis-based personal and corporate concierge business. “A wedding coordinator will save you time and enable you to get the most for your money.”

But What about Cost?
While we are seeing some glimmers of hope with the economy supposedly turning more to the optimistic, budgets and the bottom line still rule the roost.

“You can afford a wedding coordinator,” explains Katie. “Your wedding coordinator will save you money by suggesting the appropriate vendors that will provide professional services to accommodate your budget.”

The professionals are experienced in negotiating contracts with caterers, florists, photographers, and other suppliers.

So How do I Find One?
Trust is important in any relationship. You should feel completely comfortable with the planner and feel assured that he or she completely understands what your needs are. Your personalities should match. Where does wedding planning truly begin? With the numbers! Plan your budget before you get carried away with other wedding details. Determine how much you want to spend, then The Simple Solution can help determine type of wedding you would like to have: location, theme, # of guests, formality, and time of day.

When asked what else The Simple Solution can provide customers, Katie’s response was, “We take care of everything from the mundane to the insane.” Among her many talents, Katie can provide errand running, gift and shopping services, key holding, wait service, automotive services, postal needs, “manny services” for bachelors, recuperative and senior services, and event planning.

“When you hire the simple solution you know that you are buying quality, service, knowledge, professionalism, creativity, guidance, leg work, a stress reliever, an etiquette expert and a personal assistant and friend.”
