QUESTION

How do we know we're the right match?

ANSWER

Most likely, by looking at our work you felt it resonate with you. First impressions aside, It all begins with getting to know each other! By filling out our Contact Form you let us in on the first basic information and we get back to you right away to schedule a complimentary online consultation with Mariangela. During this video call, we'll get to discuss the fundamentals, what you envision for the ambiance, what your expectations are for the experiences you wish to have, the era, or the style you wish to tap on, the estimated number of your guests as well as a rough budget we'll be both called to work with. It's that simple! 

QUESTION

Why are there no prices on the website?

ANSWER

Because there are no ready-made packages. My goal is through a wide range of services and personal communication, to provide every couple with a unique experience, tailored to their personality, dreams and needs.

QUESTION

Do you only collaborate with a particular list of vendors and venues?

ANSWER

We do not. As native Cretans we DO have a select list of professionals who are always positive to deliver the best, such as photographers, floral designers, caterers, bakers, lighting crews, videographers, MUAH artists, stationery artists etc. BUT we are open to working with people our clients dream of having on board. Our venue collaborations are unsparing too. We want our clients to be able to host their weddings where their hearts soar. But, we will definitely suggest what we feel suits your needs best. 

QUESTION

How many events a day do you handle?

ANSWER

Exclusivity is non-negotiable for My Planner. This means we only handle ONE event per day, and oftentimes one every two days to ensure our clients have our undivided attention and focus. 

QUESTION

What other events do you offer services for?

ANSWER

Private celebrations, vow renewals, wedding proposals, engagement celebrations, and fabulous pre-wedding and post-wedding soirees are the kinds of events we mostly work on. We also plan and design for business clients, private gatherings and celebrations, corporate initiatives and more. 

QUESTION

Do you visit a site before planning a wedding?

ANSWER

Absolutely SO! No wedding design or plan can come to fruition unless your wedding planner and designer know all the dynamics and metrics of your venue.

QUESTION

How do you handle a crisis?

ANSWER

This might as well be one of our biggest secret powers. We are by nature problem solvers and quick thinkers, fact analyzers and situation evaluators. Where there's a will there is always a way!

QUESTION

Do you charge a flat fee for your services?

ANSWER

As we love it when everything is simple and transparent, our pricing for planning services varies according to size, location and date. All planning fees are quoted as a flat fee that covers all our services, including designing, planning and producing your destination wedding in Crete.

QUESTION

What is the best way to contact you?

ANSWER

The best way to reach out to us for the first time is via our Online Form as this is how we can organize your potential client file and keep things streamlined for you. From then on, we can schedule online appointments or phone calls, while for strictly urgent matters you can use our WhatsApp number. 

QUESTION

What is important for us to understand when booking our wedding with My Planner?

ANSWER

Open communication is our number one priority. When you choose My Planner to plan your wedding you have a constant (and very persistent) advocate by your side. We are team YOU. 

QUESTION

We'd love to pay you a visit...

ANSWER

Oh, and I'd LOVE to have you over!

How about an engagement shoot planned during your stay? Pack your best dress!
