My work starts at 10 am and goes on till 7:30-8 pm daily so I only get weekends to properly plan. My wedding is in 8 months but am already stressed tbh.
I thought starting early will help but it’s becoming too much. After office I’m just sitting with calls and lists every day.
Venue itself is so confusing… every place looks good online but then pricing, availability, hidden stuff all different. Then decorator is another headache. Everyone is showing random pics but not clearly explaining what will actually be done.
Family pressure is also there on top of this… everyone has opinions but no one is actually helping with execution.  And budget is just all over the place. Every vendor is saying something different and quoting random prices, and I have no idea what’s reasonable.
So I am thinking of hiring a professional for this who can manage everything -venue, decor, photos, videos and more. Is it worth it or just an extra cost?
I have checked a few wedding / event planner sites also, but would feel better hearing from someone who has actually gone through this
