Why should you hire an event planner?
There are many things to consider when planning your event, especially if you are planning a wedding. Hiring an event coordinator
is a way to get the information you need, hire the vendors that will accomplish your ideas the best, and throw an event that delight
everyone involved, including yourself. Though many people are capable of planning a private party or event themselves, when it comes
down to getting every last detail perfect, this is where an event coordinator can help. When planning a wedding, both the bride and groom
are looking forward to getting married and spending the rest of their lives together. However, sometimes planning the party gets in the
way. We have seen many brides, who, come their wedding day, are exhausted and tired of worrying about whether the food or cake will arrive
on time, and how they are going to fit getting their hair done in one small day, or half of a day. Icing on the Cake Events strives to
first and foremost take that stress off of the bride and groom. The point of the wedding is the VOWS! People should not be running around in
tuxes or high heels setting up the reception, paying the vendors. They should be having fun. As wedding coordinators, the idea is to let
the wedding happen for the couple and guests, and hide all the small details or mishaps that might happen. "A lot of times, [our clients] don't have
the time to plan, and that's when we come in and help them. Event coordinators can help you to narrow down your search for all the elements of
the party and save you a lot of time. In addition to saving time, event coordinators can help to simplify the entire party planning process for the
client. If you do not have to plan and implement every detail of the party, you can truly enjoy the special day without the added stress." ~www.expertvillage.com
Therefore, an event coordinator, for whatever event you are planning, will save you time, stress, money and ultimately create the event that you had in mind,
but didn't know how to get to paper. We, as event coordinators, offer different levels of involvement and an hourly rate, so that we can tailor our skills to meet
your needs. Please see our Wedding Packages and Event Coordination page for information regarding our specific services.

Why should I hire Icing on the Cake Events over other wedding planners in the area?
Our company is made up of two events coordinators who are very dedicated to the art of creating a wedding. We know that the need of good advice
and contacts are vital to planning the perfect event. Icing on the Cake Events is dedicated to your needs, like and desires and promises to keep those in
mind when creating your event. We offer complete event planning abilities and have established relationships with the best Montana vendors in order to
give our clients the best quality service. Finally, we are dedicated to relieving the stress that event planning causes, and especially on wedding days, we
strive to create a stress-free day for the bride, groom and wedding party. Montana events are our specialty because we are familiar with the area and can
create a great event for you and your guests.

My location provides a coordinator? Why are your services better?
Though the provided coordinator may seem convenient, our services will afford you the ability to create an event that will accomplish all your ideas for
our event. We provide much more than the coordination for your event. Our services include many pre-event meetings, arranging vendors, decorating, coordinating
the actual event and overseeing the timelines that you have put forth. Our coordinators are available for any issues that might arise, and they are available for
the full time of the event. Location coordinators often can not offer their time in such a way and are only concentrating on parts of your wedding such as the ceremony.
Therefore, Icing on the Cake Events can provide many services that the location's coordinator can not.

I am planning a wedding in Montana, but I am out of state, can you help?
Planning a destination wedding or an event from out of state can be very frustrating and overwhelming. This is where Icing on the Cake Events can help! Even if you
are quite familiar with the area and vendors available, you might not have the opportunity to schedule with them. Our company can help secure vendors, a location,
and all the necessary elements for you. We can also help you with vendors such as invitation vendors that you will need to utilize out of Bozeman. We can make sure that
all necessary needs are taken care of before you arrive in the area for your event.

I am operating on a small budget, can I still afford a wedding planner?
Absolutely! In many cases, having a small budget would benefit from a wedding coordinator because we will be able to create a wedding that will be as beautiful
as you wish while remaining within your budget restraints. We will be able to work with vendors to get you the best deal and best quality for your wedding.
Also, we are willing to create a package for our services that will make hiring a wedding planner the most important part of keeping to your limited budget.

I see you are based out of Bozeman, but I am planning an event in another part of Montana, are you willing to help us out?
Yes, we can definitely help you. If you are planning a wedding in another city or location outside of Bozeman, we can still offer you quality wedding and event planning.
We are familiar with many cities and areas outside of Bozeman and are available to travel to the necessary locations in order to become familiar with the location and
area for the event. Many of our clients are interested in holding an event in different parts of the state, and we are willing to accommodate them! If, in fact, we are not
familiar with a vendor in a certain area, we will use contacts from that area to create the level of quality are providing in Bozeman.

Can I chose the vendors I would like to use, or do you have to choose for us?
The coordinators at Icing on the Cake Events have standing relationships with many event and wedding vendors. Many of them are the best in their service. Therefore,
we will recommend vendors based on your needs and our relationships with certain vendors. However, we will not stop you from using any vendor of your choice and will work
with that vendor to achieve your overall needs for the event.
