Island, Beach, and Destinations Wedding & Event Planning

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do we need to hire a wedding/event planner?

A planner helps you manage your budget, gives you suggestions, ideas and advice, secure vendors for your event and most of all to make sure your event will go smoothly and flawlessly. It’s YOUR event; you should relax and enjoy it instead of taking care of all the little details. We are here to collaborate, inspire and assist you, so that you can be a guest at your own event.

How far in advance should I plan my destination wedding?

9 to 12 months Destination Weddings involve guests travel arrangement, therefore we recommend that you send save the date invitations at least 6 months in advance. This is to allow the guests to properly budget and plan for the trip.

My wedding location/resort already provides a Catering Manager and onsite coordinator, why do I need another one?

Although some resorts provide their own resort coordinator, they usually only handle all the details and responsibilities that are related to their specific location also they add an additional service charge to your final contract which may vary from 18 to 23%.for coordinating your vendors and wedding. They are also not responsible for planning your entire event or update your budget throughout the planning process. At Weddings Romantique, we offer you the personal services that you need for your special day from selecting the vendors to preparing the detailed timeline to giving you suggestions and advice on your decisions. Not only do we assist you in planning your event, we also coordinate all of your other vendors as well in addition to making sure that no details of your wedding have not been missed or overlooked.
