Why Do I Need a Wedding Planner? Can’t My __________ (Aunt, College Roommate, Friend, etc.) Plan My Wedding?
Designs, Décor and Dessert Options Oh MY! With all of the details that come with planning a wedding a bride-to-be has a lot to think about.
Why not plan to relax and enjoy your big day? Do you really want to spend your wedding day setting up wedding décor, calling vendors and rearranging seating charts? Time spent dealing with any issues or setbacks that may arise takes away from the time spent preparing to marry your new life partner!
Even a trusted friend or family member may struggle assisting without the knowledge and experience needed to execute a spectacular. Wouldn’t you rather that your family and friends spend the day celebrating with you instead of being on-the-clock working? A professional wedding planner has established relationships with many top wedding professionals and can refer someone who will fit your needs and budget.
Additionally, a professional planner/coordinator will ensure that your day runs seamlessly, so that you and your fiancé can sit back and enjoy your own wedding. We can’t guarantee that everything will be perfect but we do guarantee that by hiring Cargo & Co. Events you will receive a dedicated, professional experienced certified wedding & events planner who can handle any matters that may arise.
I Only Want Day-of Services. Can I Book You Just For The Day of My Wedding?
No one wants a complete stranger at their wedding. Any planner working with you without getting to know you and your fiancé prior to the day of the wedding is a stranger. In order to properly execute your vision we must spend time getting to know you, your fiancé and your wedding day dream while managing timelines and logistics for your day and establishing a rapport with all of your wedding vendors.
In order to ensure you celebrate your day without distractions and make lasting memories, we begin our “Month of” package 4-6 weeks prior to your wedding day.
Do You Plan Non-Wedding Related Events?
We are not just wedding planners. With over 10 years of corporate planning experience we love to plan corporate, non-profit and social events! Other planning passions include galas, fundraisers, grand openings, product launches, trade shows, baby showers, birthday parties, retirement parties and more!
