As a planner, his early arrival sort of threw a wrench in my arrangements. Luckily I had some prior arrangements made but I was also going to have a birthday party that following weekend for my daughter who was turning 3 the day before Jacob was due. Therefore we were having her party ahead of time. Little did we know that Jacob obviously felt he needed to be the center of attention instead. I had made arrangements for helpers to come in and work at the party and luckily I wasn't needing to cancel it. Everyone helped out to ensure that Cassidy still had her special day, even though Jacob was only 5 days old.
How does any of this relate to being a wedding planner, you ask? Well, it is just another example of how "you never know what to expect" and how you deal with these interruptions is going to affect the outcome of any special day.
One aspect of a great wedding planner, is being able to think quickly on your feet. When looking for a wedding planner, they obviously need to be organized, but they have to be able to make split second decisions that will still give your day the "feel" that you are looking for.
From cake disasters to wedding crashers, a bride & groom shouldn't be bothered. That is what a wedding planner is for, to take care of these issues on the day of your function.
