Some of Mindy’s better known celebrity clients include Ellen Degeneres & Portia Rossi, Ashlee Simpson & Pete Wentz; Eva Longoria & Tony Parker and Gwen Stefani & Gavin Rossdale to name a few.

Congratulations on your engagement!
Here is the second in a three-part series that will provide the newly engaged wedding couple with some tips on getting the wedding planning off to a good start.
It’s now time for some shameless self-promotion – this is the moment when I highly recommend hiring a professional to assist you with your wedding planning (after figuring out how much money you have to spend). And here are some really great reasons why you should invest in a wedding planner to help with your wedding:
- Save time – Planning a wedding takes enormous amount of time; it takes the average couple over 200 hours to plan their wedding. Hiring a wedding coordinator will save you time (and energy) not only by researching and interviewing vendors but also by taking care of the many, many details and coming up with imaginative ideas to make your wedding unique and wonderful experience.
- Save money – You’ll soon find out that weddings are tremendously expensive. According to Wedding Bells magazine, the average cost of a wedding in 2009 was $19,274. Hiring a wedding planner can save a great deal of money - since wedding planners provide so much business to vendors, they are often able to negotiate discounts, passing them on to their clients. Wedding planners are great at setting budgets and sticking to them. Their vast experience will also stop you from making costly mistakes.
- Family Referee - Weddings are a very stressful time and can cause arguments between couples (and family and friends). A wedding planner can be proactive and provide advice to avoid problems before they happen; even if problems do come up, they are able to mediate disagreements. Your wedding planner can also lend a “shoulder to cry on” to support you during the hectic days.
- Experience - wedding planners have coordinated countless weddings and know exactly what works and what doesn’t. They'll act as the “go to person.” A wedding can have up to 22 different vendors - add in the wedding party and all of the wedding guests and that is a lot of people pulling on the bride! When you hire a wedding coordinator, you can simply tell others to “talk to the wedding planner!” This minimizes your stress and maximizes your fun. A wedding planner ensures that you will have a worry-free and stress-free wedding, allowing you to enjoy your day like your guests!
