As soon as the question’s been popped (and sometimes even before), many brides and grooms jump into wedding planning like it’s a full-time job. But if you’d rather leave the logistics to someone else who’s got experience—and who can offer extra inspiration—you’re in luck: Metro Milwaukee and Southeastern Wisconsin have plenty of event planners.

Whether you want a person to plan it all, a coordinator on the big day, or a little bit of help in the intervening months, these industry pros will be at your service.
