HIRING A CARIBBEAN WEDDING PLANNER

What better way to plan a wedding in the Caribbean than to choose a local planner or a native of the island. A planner that is very familiar with the various islands, the lay of the islands, understand the native tongue, and knowledgeable about the Caribbean culture. I am a native of Jamaica with extensive travel background to the various Caribbean islands. Too often I have seen where couples could have saved a lot on their weddings in the Caribbean if they were given the proper guidance.

Whether you are planning a big wedding at an all inclusive resort, or an intimate setting at your own private villas, don't make decisions solely based on Internet sources or information from non natives. Shop around for the best deals. Don't just book the first hotel or package deal, explore all the possible options. Get to know your wedding planners, ask them a lot of questions about the island, the settings, and culture. Make sure that they have seen sample work of the different vendors, such as photographers, videographers, and so on.

If the planners are natives of the Caribbean culture but living abroad, have them visit the island on your behalf as well to guide you in the selection process. Let them give you recommendations and proper guidance in the negotiation process.

Since the climate in the Caribbean does not vary from season to season, planning a wedding anytime from May to December can save couples with limited budget up to 50% on hotels and other costs.
