Here are a few FAQ's.....

Q.    I am an organized person who enjoys putting together social gatherings and parties.  Why do I need a wedding consultant? 

A.    A wedding consultant is a detail-oriented person, who will make certain that all of the elements of your ceremony and reception have been anticipated, planned out, and coordinated in a seemless way.  Not only does this require someone who is well-organized, but also someone who is diplomatic, professional, understanding, able to multi-task in a fast-paced environment, and enjoys doing so.  A wedding consultant will put your mind at ease and allow you to enjoy your wedding day.  You don't want to be a wedding coordinator ON your wedding day.  You are the bride or groom!  Together, we will design a comprehensive plan for your ideal wedding, and ensure that your plan is carried through.  You can enjoy planning the event, and the wedding itself, if you are one-step-removed from the planning process.  With a Green Coast Wedding consultant on hand, you are free to ENJOY your big day!

Q.    My wedding is going to be relatively small and simple.  Why do I need a wedding consultant?

A.    A wedding consultant works without the stress of being the center of attention.  Wedding couples are, understandably, under stress and strain because there are many delicate aspects to planning a wedding that require a professional approach.  Wedding planning is a stressful and complicated task no matter what.  Even in a "simple" wedding there are a multitude of decisions to make regarding the ceremony time, location, style, and format, reception site, catering, flowers, decorations, colours, favours, speeches, cakes, guest lists, gowns, tuxes, etc. etc.  A wedding consultant can keep everything straight, offer suggestions and mediation, and organize your ideas and wishes in a concise and relaxed manner.  You should enjoy planning your wedding not stress about it.  Let a consultant take care of the professional aspects of wedding planning.  There is a great deal of value added to your engagement experience when the planning of your special event is done in a stress-free way.

Q.   What is a Green Wedding?

A.    Good question!  A green wedding is an event that is designed to leave a "light ecological footprint."  In other words, couples who wish to reduce the negative impact of their wedding on the environment will make "green" choices when planning various aspects of their special day.  That said, there are various shades of green, AND every little bit counts.  At Green Coast Weddings we specialize in helping couples make eco-friendly choices about where to hold your wedding ceremony and reception, choosing which caterers, florists, stationary, and transportation companies, etc. to use, and any other green ideas that come to mind.  Even small "green" decisions can really add up for a positive result.  And the KEY is that your wedding will be still be wonderful, joyous, and special!  Your wishes and dreams won't be compromised.  Couples can enjoy a beautiful wedding and marriage that compliments their personal beliefs and values.  Green Coast Weddings is committed to helping couples achieve these goals. 

Q.    A wedding consultant is expensive.  Can I afford to hire one?

A.    YES!  A wedding consultant has the ability to wear many hats.  Wedding consultants are organizers, researchers, mediators, planners, customers, and negotiators.  We are confident, experienced, and have the time and efficiency to put together a wedding plan that suits your budget.  First, we save you time.  Tons of time.  The research that goes into the planning of a wedding is staggering.  Couples are very busy, and do not necessarily have the time required to conduct vendor site inspections, research ceremony sites, interview caterers, bakers, florists, and photographers (to name a few).  Second, wedding consultants will work within your budget, and help keep you on track.  Third, we negotiate with your vendors to get you the best price possible.  At Green Coast Weddings, we have industry contacts and associates to aid in our negotiations.  We can save you time and money!

Q.    I want to enjoy the planning of my wedding.  I don't want a cheesy wedding planner to take over the creation of my wedding.  Why would I hire one?

A.    Wedding consultants on tv and in movies are over-the-top, flamboyant, and acting a part.  A REAL wedding consultant has your wishes and dreams in mind when HELPING you plan the perfect wedding.  We want you to give us a good reference following your wedding.  We work in a small yet busy industry and have our reputations to uphold.  We GENUINELY enjoy coordinating a beautiful wedding for the couples we meet, and take a personal interest in accomplishing a perfectly enchanting wedding.  We love what we do and want to make your day extra special.  At Green Coast Weddings we are down-to-earth (literally) people who think like you do.  Get in touch with us!
