Should I use
a wedding stylist?
Not every wedding needs a stylist, however in life we often we do look to designers and stylists alike to inform us of design choices we could be empowered to make.
A good wedding stylist doesn't force their design language onto their clients. They understand that a client knows their own style, instead using their experience to guide them towards items and elements that work well with the wedding venue, wedding date and wedding duration.
Many wedding stylists opt for a phone consultation or showroom visit to initially establish a rapport with the client and learn more about them. This initial meeting is a great way to walk the client through available themes and learn more about the client's own inspiration for their wedding and if possible, the venue they are using for the occasion.
A successful wedding stylist might style 20+ weddings over the typical March - October wedding season and so their experience becomes invaluable. They will know what styles work best with a variety of venues and ceremonies.
A reputable wedding stylist will understand what wedding decor is on-trend, keeping a close eye on wedding fashions and concepts from across the globe and ensuring their inventory of wedding props supports endless possibilities for wedding decoration.
This choice is entirely yours to make, the beauty of hiring a wedding stylist is that you are hiring a trusted partner who wants to create the most memorable and flawless occasion for you. So if multiple calls are required, or visits to a showroom then that's nothing unusual.
This question is dependent on the level of service you have arranged with your wedding stylist. But at a bare minimum the wedding stylist should meet with you in person, or over the phone to understand any initial ideas you have for your wedding.
A competent wedding stylist will then provide you with a clear understanding of what is required to create the vision you want. They will take care of all the styling details large and small, freeing up valuable time for you to focus on friends and family, both in the build up to the wedding and on the big day itself.
A wedding stylist is often linked closely to the local wedding industry and will work with your other suppliers to ensure seamless and stress free set-up and pack down of all of your chosen props and wedding decorations.
For many, a wedding stylist is an essential component to achieving the aesthetic ambitions for their wedding. The cost of a detailed and expansive wedding styling setup is comparitive to other essential services such as table hire, or a wedding photographer.
A good wedding stylist will try to understand a clients budget from the outset and also retain a high degree of flexibility as the final wedding decor items are agreed.
