Should I Use a Destination Wedding Coordinator?

One of the first decisions you'll have to make once you've decided on a destination wedding is whether or not to use a destination wedding planner or coordinator. Having the right person to plan your wedding and help you make decisions about your big day can make all the difference in your pre-wedding stress levels. The wedding planner will know the area, have a working relationship with wedding vendors such as florists and caterers, and will be able to be your go-to person at your destination. On the other hand, some people would rather go it alone. Planning a destination wedding without a planner can be done as well, and if you choose this route, you have the satisfaction of knowing that you've chosen all vendors, locations and resources by yourself. No matter which way you choose, feeling comfortable about the wedding you're planning is the most important issue you should consider.
