Q: My husband and I both work full time.  To make matters worse, I go to school at night.  Although we have more money since we both work, we have no time.  We want a beautiful wedding but by the time we have a moment to breathe we are too tired to pick up the phone or research the industry.  The last thing we want to do is sit at a computer. Can you help?

A: Yes! it is ironic. More money but less time! As Pittsburgh weddings are much more elaborate than in the past, more time, expertise, knowledge and energy is needed for planning appropriately.  Thirty to forty years ago couples had time to plan.  The modern day couple is being pulled in so many different directions.  They are faced with commitments at home, work, social life, and let's not forget each other. So yes, relax a little, and let a Pittsburgh Wedding Planner do the work for you.  Stay healthy and enjoy this year, before you run yourself down and it all passes you by.

Q: I would love to hire a  Pittsburgh Wedding Planner but don't they cost like a zillion dollars?

A: Those on restricted budgets actually need Wedding Coordinators the most.  Without proper planning, organization, knowledge, and experience, a Pittsburgh Wedding could cost you twice as much.  As Wedding Planners, we negotiate with quality vendors for the lowest price and show you how to cut costs that will keep you on budget.  In today's busy world a couple needs "affordable extravagance".

Q: How many different wedding service providers are there and who do we need to book?

A: There can be a hundred possible services/products to plan (more if you use your imagination).  You will need to book those vendors you feel comfortable with after we have given you various options of those we feel comfortable with and think you would prefer.  You choose the best service at a fair price from a list of vendors who we have complete confidence in recommending.

Q: I am interested in your Pittsburgh Wedding Planning services, but I don't want someone to take over and run the whole show.  I love planning and I'm having a great time.  However I just would like someone I can call along the way if I'm stuck. Can I hire a Pittsburgh Wedding Planner for just a little bit of help?

A: Yes, as Pittsburgh Wedding Planners we can handle as little or as much as you need.  Simply selecting a photographer or hiring a band to full scale production- the amount of Pittsburgh Wedding Planning help we provide is your choice! You design your own wedding and make the final decisions-we just give you as much help and as many options as you desire.  We have many different packages, including a complimentary consultation.  You can also pay for various services by the hour.  As time goes on, and you see that you may need more help, you can always add packages or services to your contract.

Q: How can I tell if you are really providing me with a reputable vendor?

A: As Pittsburgh Wedding Planners, our reputation and future business depend on the quality of services, including vendors, that your receive.  Your satisfaction is our best advertisement.  So, it is to our benefit to recommend you the best vendor for your budget and desires.

Q: I am completely overwhelmed.  There is constantly so much to do! There is not enough time in the day and our list of duties seem endless.  We don't even know if we are doing things in the right order!
