Our initial consultation is conducted over zoom!

During the planning process, we will mainly communicate via email and google meets. We do communicate by WhatsApp messages for emergencies and immediate urgent questions .

Our planning team is regularly available Monday thru Friday, from 9am – 5pm, and on Saturday and Sundays by appointment as the weekend is usually when the planning team is working on-site at the event location.

We are flexible to find a time that will work for both of our schedules, so, when necessary, we can schedule calls or meetings in off-office hours.

Each couple is assigned to one of our planners, that planner will be the main planner to the couple and the contact person.

Your wedding planner will work closely with you to plan, organize, and supervise each element of the wedding.

Each couple is assigned to a Main Wedding Planner with guidance from the lead planner and Principal planner.

Definitely!!! Listed in our destination package we will guide you with the most appropriate recommendations on the hotels or villas that will be the best fit for your guests and we will plan every single activity for your wedding weekend. The Welcome Event, Rehearsal Dinner, Wedding Day, Farewell Brunch, Sunset Cruise, Private Yacht, etc.…

Payment could be placed through a credit card: Visa and Master Card are accepted. Wire transfers are also available or you can come by our office located in Tempe to pay in cash.

No! The main reason of hiring a wedding planner is to avoid all the stress of the research and to have someone that has already built a relationship with local vendors. We will look for different options of vendors, we will find the best fit for your needs and we will always be in constant communication ensuring their performance is impeccable on your wedding day.

Our Wedding Planners at Hangers will take all payments from the wedding couple and then distribute it to your vendor team, to make it easier for you and to ensure the planning process goes smoothly.

Hangers will prepare a payment report, including all deposits and payments required, listing the due dates. All final balances are due 30 days before the wedding date.

Yes absolutely!!!

We encourage our wedding couples to at least come to Grenada once during the planning process, we call these planning visits: site inspections.

When you hire Hangers, the site inspections are part of our planning services. Couples regularly come twice during the planning, the first time to select the wedding venue and the second to do all the fun stuff such as: menu tasting, cake tasting, showroom visit, vendors meeting, etc… Of course, your wedding planner will organize and set each appointment during your trip!
