Annual Wedding Report (Planning Services)

Recently, the annual wedding report was released and I thought I would take a brief moment to highlight the section on wedding planners.

Many times excited couples get engaged and are enthusiastic about taking on the process of wedding planning, but with hectic work schedules and the increase of lifestyle hobbies and activities the report clearly shows that couples are looking to relinquish more of the planning responsibilities to a professional.

The almost 40% increase in Full Service Planning shows that couples truly value their time and are entrusting a wedding planner to oversee much more of the planning work and details.
