Question

Do you need you nees a wedding planner or a day of planner??

Answer 1

You certainly don't need one but it's definately a nice luxury.  There are tons of free resources on the net.

It really depends on you if it's worth it or not.  Are you organized, do you enjoy the hunt for the deals, do you have the TIME?  Some brides do and some don't.  I would suggest you try it on your own for a bit first.  Then if you find yourself overwhelmed with nobody to help you can always hire somebody.

The day of the wedding I would really suggest you have a day of planner or ask a trusted friend/family person to do it.  I dunno about you but I want to spend my time enjoying the day...not worrying if the potatoes are Ok and the florist put water in the vases.

Answer 2

No. You don't need a person to work as a wedding planner.  You just need to be organized and maintain a sense of humor.  I don't know one person used a wedding planner.  

(I'm talking about the person as a wedding planner; books you can easily download pages and they may or may not be useful, but they can be free so it won't matter)

Answer 3

My Sister-In-Law recommended that I get one and I thought what a waste of money.  However I have found the lists on the The Knot to be very helpful and its free!

I also got Real Simple the Magazines Weddings and that has great lists and neat ideas, with a mini magazine that you can take with you when you shop.

Answer 4

as a wedding planner i would honestly say that it all depends.

most planners will have different packages for different needs.

they should have an all inclusive package for the bride who knows nothing about planning a wedding or is too busy to do the planning herself

OR

they should offer their services just for the rehearsal and wedding day for the bride who just needs someone to take care of last minute details and have the bridal party walking down the aisle in order and on time

they also should have anything in between

talk to your local wedding planners and see if it something you are interested in. they should be honest with you and determine what you really need
