Let's be honest - apart from having world-class event planners, you need to have equally world-class vendors as well, and that can be as difficult as looking for a grain of sand on a sun-soaked beach. Finding good vendors is an absolute must and definitely one of the most stressful parts of event planning - not to mention risky too! There are a lot of unprofessional and poor-quality services being dished out, making it much harder for first-time clients to connect with grade-A vendors and get the amazing products your event deserves! So think of this blog as a love letter from an event professional.
Top-tier service providers can be difficult to locate in the competitive market nowadays, but that doesn't mean it has to be impossible too! Here are some of our Lead Wedding Planner's most recommended vendors for all things events!
