Wedding planning can be extremely stressful, especially for a first-time bride or groom. Many couples choose to leave it up to the experts. Hiring a professional wedding planner can cost up to $1,850, but many say they don't regret shelling out for that added expense.
One Business Insider contributor claimed that hiring a wedding planner was the best decision she made while preparing for her wedding. She said, "No matter how organized you, your family, or your bridesmaids are, you'll never be able to stay on top of everything the way a wedding planner can...I was amazed at all of the little tasks they assisted with, like helping my bridesmaids steam their dresses or packing up all the cards and gifts at the end of the night."
