Wedding planners organise and coordinate weddings on behalf of couples, helping turn their preferences, guest numbers and budget into a practical plan for the day. Depending on the service agreed, they may provide support throughout the planning process, assist with selected tasks, or take responsibility for coordinating events on the wedding day. They commonly help with schedules, venue arrangements, supplier research and communications, and the ordering of key decisions and bookings. Services can include arranging or advising on catering, photography, entertainment, flowers, decorations, transport and accommodation, as well as managing invitations, seating plans and ceremony details. On the day, a planner may oversee set-up, liaise with suppliers and venue staff, keep events to schedule and resolve practical issues. Some also plan related occasions, such as engagement parties or pre-wedding celebrations.
