Alexa’s Photography | Erin + Brandon’s Willow Oaks Plantation Wedding in Eden, NC

Today, my friend, Chris, the wonderful sales manager and event coordinator of Willow Oaks Plantation, is sharing her thoughts on the perks of a wedding planner. Willow Oaks is one of my favorite venues and I LOVE working with Chris .. she is so accommodating to our brides!

Being the event coordinator and sales manager at Willow Oaks Plantation, I often get confused as the wedding planner. With every bridal tour, one of my many questions is always, “Do you have a wedding planner?” If they don’t, I let them know I am happy to make a referral. A bride cannot go wrong in hiring a person who will take all of her stress and worries away. As a bride, you will only do this wedding thing once! A wedding planner has event experience and will be able to help with all facets of the wedding. Your wedding planner has contacts with florists, bakeries, rental companies, venues, photographers, videographers, and more. Your wedding planner can take you through all of your pre-planning to the actual day of. Speaking for myself, I have a referral list that consists of two planners…. Leigh is definitely one of them! It is a joy to work with a professional that has a positive attitude, a plan and can execute them eloquently! It sure makes my job easier!
