"I often find that couples like to have one or two additional points of contact to support the planning process, so I am more than happy to coordinate with those key individuals. If a couple requests additional contacts, then we will identify those one or two people and indicate the level of involvement the couple would like them to have. For example, do they attend every meeting, or are they subbed in when the couple is unavailable? Do they have decision-making power, or are they mainly helping to check boxes that have already been determined? These are the kinds of components we will identify in order to make the process as smooth and seamless as possible."
