F A Q
frequently asked questions
Why do I need to hire a full-service wedding planner?
Because planning a wedding is a full-time job – and it shouldn’t be yours! Behind every beautiful celebration are hundreds of moving parts—budgets, contracts, timelines, vendors, logistics, design details, and last-minute problem solving. Trying to juggle all of that while working, having a life, and actually enjoying your engagement can quickly become overwhelming.
That’s where we come in. As your planners, we take the stress off your plate, guide you through every decision, and bring your vision to life with a blend of creativity and precision. From design concepts to vendor management to production on the big day, we handle it all so you can focus on what matters most: celebrating your love and making memories.
Hiring a planner isn’t a luxury—it’s peace of mind. With us, you’ll gain time back, avoid costly mistakes, and truly get to feel like a guest at your own wedding.
Do I need a full-service wedding planner if my venue has a coordinator?
Your venue coordinator works with all things related to your venue – setup, food & beverage, and staffing. While a wedding planner coordinates and manages ALL logistics for your entire wedding day. At C&E Event Productions, we manage your vendors, design details, timelines, overall flow, and so much more to ensure everything is executed exactly as you envisioned. A good wedding planner should make your life easier and make your vendors’ lives easier too!

When should I book a wedding planner?
We recommend booking your wedding planner 12–18 months before your wedding. This gives you the best selection of venues and vendors, and allows us to guide you through the entire process from day one.
Do you plan events other than weddings?
Absolutely! In addition to weddings, we plan and design rehearsal dinners, welcome parties, farewell brunches, and full wedding weekends. We also love creating memorable social events (birthdays, showers, anniversaries) and producing seamless corporate events. Whatever the occasion, our team brings the same level of creativity, detail, and flawless execution. Fun Fact: we're also both Certified Meeting Planners (CMP)!

Do you offer a Day Of Coordination package?
We do! True wedding coordination requires time, planning, and communication in the weeks leading up to your wedding. Our Day of Coordination option is called Wedding Management - because it requires thorough preparation and support so your big day is flawless.
