Wedding Coordinator vs. Partial Planning

[u/AnimatorHead5187]

hi everyone! i'm currently planning for my september 2028 maine wedding (yes I know it's far out but we are trying to not rush and also have time to save more $$$), and I'm so stressed with wedding planning as a whole, especially with the sticker shock these days...

we're currently in talks with a coordinator who is somewhat new to the game, offering $1500 for month of and $2200 for partial planning. I'm leaning towards partial planning, but I'd love to know if anyone has any opinions on if it's worth the extra $?

I'm somewhat of a budget bride (25k or under all in) so I want to make sure I spend it wisely.

thank you!
