There are many frequently asked questions on initial tours at UNION, but one of the most common is always: ‘Do I actually need a wedding planner?’
Our answer is, and will always be, “yes.”
Having a wedding planner is so important in our book, that we recommend it regardless of whether you hire UNION Planning or another event planning company. Why, you ask? The time you will spend planning your wedding will be significantly — think hundreds of hours — more without a planner. Not only will a planner help with event design and your overall wedding vision, they will also ensure your wedding day goes off without a hitch (with the exception of you and your partner getting hitched!).
A wedding planning business will also work alongside your team of professional vendors, so that you can enjoy every moment of your day. Plus, they’ll set up your decor, create a detailed timeline, get you down the aisle, and so much more.
There are several great wedding planning and design services in Kansas City, so we’ve rounded up some of the top options.
