- Why are wedding planners necessary?
You require a wedding planner for a number of reasons. The most well-liked ones are listed below:
Both prior to and on the day of the wedding, planning a wedding requires a lot of effort, time, and energy.
Experienced wedding planners can handle all the management and more laborious components of a wedding, including finding, vetting, and managing vendors as well as organizing the wedding day.
Couples who engage professional wedding planners may focus on the enjoyable aspects of wedding planning, such as writing their wedding vows, selecting their wedding dress, and entertaining their guests, rather than stressing over every minute administrative detail.
If a couple has a busy schedule, hiring a professional wedding planner will make the entire wedding process simple and easy.
The wedding day will go smoothly with the aid of a wedding planner.
- Do we still need a wedding planner if we have a venue/hotel manager?
We still think you need a wedding coordinator. Since they solely concentrate on matters relating to managing wedding venues, a venue/hotel manager can assist you with only specific aspects of the wedding planning process. You will also be responsible for making other arrangements for a fashionable and effective Wedding celebration, such as:
- Locate, reserve, and oversee additional wedding vendors.
- Complex floor plans and document management.
- Develop a theme for the occasion.
- Plan the wedding day (e.g., supplier deliveries and setups, guest arrivals, solve unexpected situations, etc.)

7. Are video calling and emails included in your planning service?
Yes, at UR LUXE EVENTS, scheduled video calls, and emails are included as part of our wedding planning services. Here's how we incorporate these into the process:
Video Calling
We believe in the importance of personal connection and clear communication. That's why we offer scheduled video calls as a core part of our service. Video calls allow us to:
Discuss wedding details in real-time.
Review important decisions and ideas.
Build a comfortable rapport with you, ensuring we're the perfect fit for your wedding day.
Emails
We maintain open communication through emails, ensuring that you're always up to date with your planning progress. Emails are used for:
Sharing important documents and contracts.
Sending confirmations and reminders.
Providing timely responses to any questions or concerns.
We understand how busy wedding planning can be, so we ensure these forms of communication are included to make the planning process as smooth and stress-free as possible for you.
Let us handle the details, while you focus on enjoying the exciting moments leading up to your big day!
8. Are any installments refundable in the event that I wish to cancel the contract?
When you book a wedding planning service with UR LUXE EVENTS, you'll receive a schedule for the installment payments. The payments that have already been made are non-refundable, but the further installments are not due if you terminate the contract (let's hope not).
Installment Refund Policy
At UR LUXE EVENTS, we value the trust you place in us to bring your wedding vision to life. Here’s how our installment refund policy works in the event of cancellation:
Non-Refundable Payments:
Installments that have already been paid are non-refundable. This is because we begin dedicating time, resources, and expertise to your wedding planning as soon as the contract is signed.
Remaining Installments:
If you choose to terminate the contract (though we sincerely hope this doesn’t happen!), any remaining unpaid installments will no longer be due.
Why Payments Are Non-Refundable:
Our planning process often involves upfront costs, including consultations, research, vendor coordination, and reserving your dates. These efforts ensure a seamless and tailored experience for you.
While we hope for a joyous collaboration leading to your big day, we also understand that plans can change. If any issues arise, we’re always here to discuss and work together on the best resolution for everyone involved.
9. My venue provides a coordinator, do I still need to hire one?
This is a common question, and the short answer is yes, you may still need a wedding coordinator. Here’s why:
The Difference Between a Wedding Coordinator and a Venue Coordinator
Venue Coordinator:
Focuses solely on the venue’s operations.
Manages the staff, setup, and overall functionality of the venue.
Ensures things like tables, chairs, and catering (if in-house) are prepared.
Wedding Coordinator:
Handles your entire wedding day timeline—from the walk down the aisle to the last dance.
Communicates with all vendors (florists, DJs, photographers) to ensure everything flows seamlessly.
Troubleshoots any issues (unexpected guest requests, dress emergencies, etc.).
Oversees guest experience, from seating arrangements to post-event logistics.
Provides emotional support to you and your partner, reducing stress and keeping you focused on enjoying your day.
Why You Might Need Both
While a venue coordinator ensures the venue runs like a well-oiled machine, they typically do not:
Create or manage your detailed day-of timeline.
Oversee vendor deliveries or setups unrelated to the venue.
Manage your wedding party or assist with personal details like pinning boutonnieres or bustling your dress.
Help with personalized decor or favors.
What Should You Do?
Speak with your venue coordinator and ask for a detailed list of their responsibilities.
Compare their duties to the support you’d receive from a professional wedding coordinator.
Consider hiring a wedding coordinator if you want someone focused entirely on making sure every detail of your vision is executed to perfection.
Your wedding day should be stress-free and full of joy—having a dedicated coordinator ensures that no detail is left to chance!
