Please. You will be giving her the chance to either do a better job or show you her true colors. &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;If you don't have this discussion you may have pent up frustration on your day and that frustration may manifest itself when you don't want  it to. That's not what you need.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;As a professional planner; I'd like to say that I always hit home runs with my clients. But I can't. Statistically it's even faulty to hope for. &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;However, I KNOW that even though it would be hard to hear...I would greatly appreciate my client telling me where I am falling short for them, so I can either correct it or end the relationship. &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Good luck!</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5918431243749456777/5383444106708052799/comments/default/500842544461738063'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5918431243749456777/5383444106708052799/comments/default/500842544461738063'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.blueorchidblog.com/2008/05/ask-wedding-planner-real-advice-from.html?showComment=1210971000000#c500842544461738063' title=''/><author><name>saundra, event engineer</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11620029407336213133</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.blueorchidblog.com/2008/05/ask-wedding-planner-real-advice-from.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5918431243749456777.post-5383444106708052799' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5918431243749456777/posts/default/5383444106708052799' type='text/html'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5918431243749456777.post-279456865551343646</id><published>2008-05-16T13:20:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-05-16T13:20:00.000-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Because some people seem to be getting the wrong i...</title><content type='html'>Because some people seem to be getting the wrong idea:&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;I did not shop for my planner by cost alone.
