💍 What a Wedding Planner Actually Does (and Why It’s Worth It)

If you’ve ever wondered what a wedding planner really does, you’re not alone. Between TikTok timelines and Pinterest boards, it can feel like you have to plan, design, and coordinate an entire production on your own, but that’s exactly where Capital Occasions comes in.

Because while planning your wedding should be exciting, it’s also a full-time job (and you already have one of those). So let’s pull back the curtain a little on what we actually do and why hiring a planner isn’t a luxury, it’s a lifesaver.

✨ We take your vision and make it real

You might know the vibe you want: colorful, classic, minimal, moody. But translating that into a cohesive design takes strategy. We help refine your ideas, connect them to trusted vendors, and create a design plan that feels effortless and you.

We’re here to make sure every detail, from your florals to your flatware, tells the same story.

📋 We keep everything (and everyone) on schedule

A wedding day timeline is a beast. Between hair and makeup, travel time, photo schedules, and vendor arrivals, there are a million moving pieces. We build, manage, and communicate your entire timeline so you can sip champagne instead of answering 47 questions about when to start toasts.

Trust us, your future self will thank you.

💌 We handle the behind-the-scenes chaos

From vendor confirmations to last-minute emergencies (forgotten steamer, anyone?), planners are the quiet problem-solvers keeping your day on track. Most of the magic we do happens in the background, unnoticed but always essential.

Our goal? You only see the pretty parts.

💕 We protect your peace

We’re more than checklist keepers. We’re advocates for your vision, your budget, and your sanity. On your wedding day, your only job should be to be fully present. Ours is to make sure everything else runs beautifully around you.

So… is it worth it?

Absolutely.Because when you hire Capital Occasions, you’re not just hiring someone to plan. You’re investing in calm, clarity, and confidence from start to finish, and that’s priceless.
