2. What are the benefits of hiring a wedding planner?
Planners can help implement/ add professional insight to your overall vision and budget before securing your venue and vendors. This will save time and money before any real planning begins.

For example, hidden venue restrictions can cost you with extra added services or limitations in your event design.

If you are not sure about hiring a full-time wedding planner, try our Pomegranate package: Sacred Bride 101.

- Expertise
Wondering if you made the right decisions, hired
quality vendors, got the best price for the quality you desire.
Planners pre-qualify your vendors and venues.
- Time
When there are just not enough hours in the day,
whether it's your job, school or business, a planner
can help with all the details, keep you updated, as well as all your vendors

- Save Money
Wedding planners help you save money. Planners are working for you, not for vendors or venues. They are looking out for your best interests. They get you discounts and perks that are not readily available to the general public. They create realistic budgets with quality pre-qualified skilled professionals, that they have worked with before. Planners make sure things run smoothly, and save you money on expensive over-time fees at ceremony sites and venues, running anywhere from $500. extra and up.
- Short Engagement
When you are getting married within six to eight months,
and need help pulling together all the details.

- Out of town wedding
When you're planning a wedding far from home, your
planner stays in touch with all the local details.
- Stage Manager
Your planner is an expert behind the scenes orchestrating
all the elements, staff and artisans that you hired, bringing
them together to create your event.
- Peace of Mind
Knowing that you have a qualified planner keeps the stress
level down, so you can relax and enjoy your event. Stop those sleepless nights over planning details.
A well orchestrated event is one of fond memories, not mishaps.
The staff is calm and so is everyone attending including you.

3. When should you hire a wedding planner?

The sooner the better.

4. What is the difference between a wedding planner, consultant, director and coordinator?

Wedding Planner - takes you through the entire process of planning your wedding event

Wedding Consultant - some couples want to do the planning themselves but need advise on certain parts of the wedding ie etiquette questions, finding vendors, invitations and program wording, etc.

Wedding Coordinator - also referred to as 'month of' or 'day of' coordinator. They help with wedding management and logistics for the rehearsal and the wedding day.

5. Do you do partial planning?
At Sacred Events we do as much or as little of the wedding planning and coordination that you want. We've develop three levels of service to accommodate your specific needs.

Pomegranate One to One Consulting

Lotus Blossom Ceremony and Ritual Design

Sacred Garden Conscious Wedding Planning and Design

6. Do you plan elopements?
Yes, we like to refer to them as small intimate ceremonies or wedding retreats, since sometimes these include your immediate family members and are not 'elopements' in the traditional sense.


7. How do you accept payment?
We accept MC/VISA either over the phone or through PayPal.
