Interview with a Wedding Planner

Monday I had the pleasure of sitting down with Rochelle from R & J Events to talk about her job as a wedding planner.

As a wedding photographer, I find myself wearing the wedding coordination hat often, so when I hear that a couple has hired a wedding planner, I’m giddy! That means I can relax a little and let someone else run the schedule & field the questions and I can focus 100% on taking photos.

I learned so much from talking with Rochelle about wedding planning. The most interesting thing I learned is that the first vendors that she works on hiring after the Venue are the vendors who physically have to be at your wedding. It makes sense, and I’ve never thought of it like that. They can’t be in multiple places at once so it’s important to lock them in for your wedding date.
