Full Service Wedding Planner

A Dream Wedding is an independent wedding planning company that offers full-service planning, day-of coordination and intimate wedding and elopement venues. Wedding expert Robbin Montero is a trusted industry professional who assures that each bridal couple has the beautiful wedding experience they deserve.

Consider the value, savings and reassurance a full-service wedding planner can provide. When you choose A Dream Wedding, you are assured of getting the very best for less than you would expect for these reasons:

  • Exclusive discounts with trusted vendors can only be passed to you by a full-service wedding planner who arranges and coordinates numerous weddings every year. These discounts are not available to individuals or clients of day-only coordinators. In almost every case, the discounts fully off-set the cost of the planner.
  • A Dream Wedding planners have close relationships with local vendors and will make sure they perform as expected on your wedding day.
  • Their knowledge of vendor rates enables full-service planners to help clients develop and stick to a realistic wedding budget for the wedding they desire. They are industry pros, familiar with budgeting, contract jargon and current vendor rates – all of the arrangements that are set in motion months before the wedding.
  • Your full-service planner is a resource. Brides need a “go-to” person for etiquette, wedding-related questions and to keep the planning time line moving forward. Many brides also need a liaison to help keep emotions and relationships from straining during planning. Without your planner, you will need to research answer and solve problems yourself.
  • Your full-service wedding planner will offer support every step of the way to help you avoid costly planning mistakes, save you time and money, and to understand every detail of the wedding plans.

Don’t just take Robbin’s word for it. Her business is based on client referrals.

  • "I can’t begin to thank you for your guidance and suggestions in planning Kim and Michael’s wedding. Choosing you as our wedding planner was the best investment I have ever made!"
  • "We felt you cared as much about our wedding as you would your own."
  • "Because of your time, patience understanding and organization I had a perfect wedding. I never knew what a wedding consultant does, but I sure do now!"
  • "We could not have done it without you! I’m sure there were a lot of behind-the-scenes miracles you pulled off to help our wedding look beautiful."
  • "Once the wedding day arrived. I was actually able to enjoy myself because I knew everything was in your capable hands."

Interview Questions for Hiring a Full Service Wedding Planner

Q. How many weddings have you planned?

A. An experienced planner should have a minimum of 100 weddings for the degree of in-depth knowledge and problem-solving abilities you seek.

Q. Do you have bride referrals I can contact?

A. The written list should have at least 10 references with telephone numbers you can call. And be sure you take the time to call them!

Q. How are you paid?

A. You want a planner who works for you! If the planner accepts money from the Vendors or a percentage of the total wedding cost, they are obliged to look out for someone else’s interests. A full-service planner who charges by the hour will be fully accountable to you and often does not increase your total costs. Expect to pay for 60-80 hours, depending on services required.

Q. How familiar are you with the vendors where my wedding will take place?

A. Hire a local planner with established vendor relationships.

Q. Why should I hire you?

A. Listen carefully to this answer and pay attention to your instincts. Has the planner listened to your ideas, been courteous and promptly returned your phone calls as you’ve become acquainted? If you don’t feel good about the treatment you’ve received to date, it won’t improve after you hire them.
