Why should you hire a wedding planner instead of planning the wedding yourself?

Before explaining, let us ask you another question: why do you think wedding planners, still hire a wedding planner? They obviously have the capabilities to plan their own wedding, but they choose not too. Below is my truthful answer, having worked over a decade in this industry.

Your wedding day is one of the most magical times of your life. A day where you should feel radiant, serene, euphoric, heartfelt, and fully present. It’s a time to freely embrace every emotion without being bogged down by the logistics and details that can overshadow your joy.

Imagine walking down the aisle, completely immersed in the love and happiness surrounding you, rather than worrying about the sequence of events or whether everything is running smoothly. This is your day to shine, to feel every bit of the magic, and to create unforgettable memories.

Hiring a wedding planner is the best decision you can make. We take care of all the intricate details, from the grand vision to the smallest touches, ensuring everything flows seamlessly.

Don’t make the mistake of choosing to plan your own wedding and carrying the burden and stress that comes along with it. Making the investment and choosing MPED is well worth it. You can truly relax & enjoy every moment, knowing your wedding in the hands of experts.

“If you are a bride like me who wants a wedding that encompasses your personality and represents who you are as a couple, but you aren’t sure what that looks like, stop what you’re doing and hire MPED.

It’s safe to say that I am not someone who has been dreaming of what my wedding will look like from a young age. I decided to hire MPED for their “Design” plus planning package, and it is truly a miracle how Elizabeth was able to turn what little vision I had going into the process into the most beautiful day of my life. I’m not exaggerating that the only details I gave Elizabeth in our first meeting were “I am thinking something light and springy— but not too rustic—but also not super modern— and my husband doesn’t want too formal—but we also don’t want it too casual...” And if you look at my pictures, you can see that she somehow NAILED this perfectly. Making the process even harder for Elizabeth, I have a very time-consuming job and she completely understood that I wouldn’t be able to put as much time into planning as I probably should. Without any hesitation, Elizabeth worked around my schedule and went the extra mile to make sure every step of the way was as easy as possible for me. Melanie stepped in whenever necessary to make sure everything went perfectly and even made a surprise appearance on my wedding day, which shows the type of person she is and that she truly cared about my day. While so many people complain about the wedding planning process, I am so thankful that I will be able to look back on this stage in my life with only happy memories because MPED made the process so enjoyable and stress-free.

TLDR: don’t be shocked if Melanie and Elizabeth are written into my Will one day!!!”

Not sure I have the all of the words yet to describe how amazing this day was. For those that don’t know, Selena is not only one of my amazing team members and daughter of one of my favorite DJs ( ), but her and Barb are also two of my favorite people ever. I’ve known Selena for a while now and as soon as I met Barb, I just knew that they were meant for each other. This wedding day was filled with so much love and not sure if I have ever cried so much as I did this day (not even at my own wedding LOL). Being a part of such a magical day was truly an honor and this one just meant so much to me. To Selena and Barb, love you both forever 🤍🤍
