New York Wedding Planner Tips|Advice
BOOK YOUR WEDDING PLANNER FIRST
We believe it is important to hire your wedding planner as early in the wedding planning process as possible. Booking your wedding venue or other wedding professionals before hiring a wedding planner we think is a mistake. Weddings are expensive and the last thing you want to do is waste money, and going it alone without a planner can end up costing you not only money but time, and no one wants to do that. While some people think working with a wedding planner is a luxury, it’s not. It might seem that way to some but working with a person who’s going to save you time and money and help you have the wedding of your dreams is not really a luxury, now is it?
BOOK YOUR WEDDING VENUE
Have you booked your New York, Hudson Valley, or Connecticut wedding venue yet? We work in both New York and Connecticut. Once you have a wedding planner, a budget, and a venue list, we’re off to finding the perfect wedding venue. We know that it’s one of the first decisions you make when you start planning and it is arguably one of the most important. If you are looking for recommendations, we have a list for both New York venues and Connecticut.
SECURE YOUR WEDDING RENTALS
If you are getting married in 2022 and decor & design is important to you, one of the next things you are going to want to do is secure your wedding rentals. First – did you know that Rogan & Co.

INVITE YOUR WEDDING GUESTS!
Not only are wedding vendors getting booked for 2022, but imagine all the guests who are being bombarded with invitations and making vacation plans. Wedding invitations are typically sent about 8 to 12 weeks in advance, but we suggest sending out save the dates as soon as you have your wedding venue booked and the guest list finalized. I will rather be early than late, especially when it comes to planning your wedding.
