What to Look for When Hiring a Bohol Wedding Planner

Experience: The wedding planner is the person couples lean on for the biggest day of their lives. And thus, it is only necessary that the person must have a wealth of experience when it comes to organizing weddings in Bohol. He or she must know the ins and outs of the island, including all, if not, most of the vendors and suppliers, who are crucial to making any dream wedding come true.

Years of experience will equip the wedding planner with solutions to problems, emergencies, and the couple’s every need.

Reputation: One of the best ways to find a wedding planner for your Bohol wedding is to ask for references from family and friends who previously or recently got married. They are the ones who usually have personal experience with the wedding planner, and know exactly what their skill sets and service is all about.

But if you are doing a destination wedding, your best option is to look at reviews online, social media, as well as any publications that feature the said wedding planner. However, don’t just rely on reputation alone. To get a good grasp of their personality and professionalism, the best way to know if they’re the best event coordinator for you is to get in touch with them, have a skype call, and observe how they respond to your queries. If time and resources allow you, meet them in person.

A list of references of past couples whom they’ve worked with will also help you gauge their reputation.

Portfolio: They say a picture says a thousand words, and in the case of wedding planners, the saying definitely holds true. A wedding planner’s portfolio gives you an idea about their whole aesthetic and style. If you’re looking for someone who specializes in a certain type of style, you’ll definitely find it in their portfolio.

Check if they have a social media account where they post their previous work, as well as blogs and magazines they’ve been featured in, or their website.
