CAN SOCIAL MEDIA HELP OR HINDER YOUR WEDDING OR EVENT PLANNING?

CAN SOCIAL MEDIA HELP OR HINDER YOUR WEDDING OR EVENT PLANNING?

As helpful as the social media world may be, going to social media to help plan your wedding or event can have its advantages and disadvantages.  We have to admit that a lot of us are on social media daily and for a huge amount of time.  It makes it that much easier to simply ask your virtual friends about wedding and event planning tips.  

Who are these Social Media Internet Experts?

Many of you are in online groups on Facebook.  The majority of the people in those groups are people who are also getting married or planning an event.  Social media experts give you advice based on someone's experience and or generalized advice.  You don't want generalized advice; you want advice that's going to address your wedding or event.  There are also wedding and event professionals in those groups that are willing to offer advice and able to help you.  THIS IS AWESOME!! However, do you know their years of experience and or track record.  Please do your research before taking on their advice.  If you want expert wedding or event planning advice, seek out someone with experience and schedule an appointment with them.  

Questions you may be asking Social Media

1. Who should I invite to my wedding or event?
2. How do I create a timeline?
3. Should I have a vegetarian option on the menu?
4. What are some trends I should have at my wedding or event?
5. What playlist should I have at my ceremony or reception?
6. Should I have a sand or unity ceremony? 
7. What should be my wedding or event budget?

All of these are personal questions that you, your fiance, or guest of honor should answer with each other or talk to your event or wedding planner or coordinator about.  Social Media experts would not be able to help you with these questions.  They can only give you information from their experiences.   Remember, their experiences may not be applicable to your situation.  

What advice should you take from Social Media?

There is a lot of things that are very helpful  when asking groups  about wedding or event planning.  Here are some things that you can freely accept. 

1. Where a person bought their wedding gown or tuxedo
2. Advice on what tools helped others plan their wedding or event
3. Place to find vendors and wedding or event planners/coordinators in places like Chattanooga, Tennessee
4. Places to see wedding inspiration like Pinterest
5. A great venue you should check out
