Wedding planners are the 'go to'
person so you can enjoy your big day:
Imagine if the suppliers you booked were
contacting you on your wedding day to
find out exactly where the cake knife is,
where the band should get ready and
what they are having for their tea before
they go on stage... Now imagine if all
these calls were coming through to you
on the day and how you'd feel. Wedding
planners are pros at dealing with all of
this and more importantly freeing you up
to relish every minute of your special day.

Now more than ever, couples are looking
to make their wedding stand out. What’s
your advice for adding a personal touch
to a wedding?
Nowadays, most couples tend to be
busy with work. However, every couple
expects to have a wonderful, outstanding
and perfect wedding day with their
own personal touch. Therefore, to add
a personal touch to their wedding,
we advise clients to share with our
professional consultants their favorite
colors, love stories, hobbies... so that we
will, based on those aspects, sketch a
wedding theme for them.

not popular in Vietnam at that time.
Therefore, in 2010, I decided to return to
Vietnam and create Bliss to help couples
enjoy their special day as I did.

Why is a good wedding planner so
invaluable?
Wedding planners can help couples
create their desired look and style:
even venues with onsite coordinators
can't provide the detailed service that
a wedding planner can. No one wants
exactly the same wedding as someone
else and it's the little details of your
wedding day that make it so individual
and special. A wedding planner can help
you pull all these little details together,
style your venue and work with your
suppliers to create the exact look and feel
you want.
Wedding planners can keep things
stress free: Organizing a wedding means
making a huge amount of decisions,
which can be very overwhelming. A good
wedding planner will take the stress out
of the process, giving as little or as much
support as you need, reassuring you
about your decisions and assisting you
with those you're unsure about.

WHILE BUDGETS MAY VARY,


you're only going to tie the knot once
(we hope). If you're going all out to make
your ceremony one nobody will ever
forget, you might need the advice of a
seasoned professional like Le Thi Thu
Trang. Her company, Bliss (www.blissvn.

Can you introduce a bit about yourself?
How did you get into the bridal industry?
I’m Le Thi Thu Trang, Founder and
Director of Bliss Weddings & Events
Planner Vietnam. For a long time,
weddings in Vietnam have become
mandatory rituals with boring
procedures. I used to live in the US
before 2010 and at that time I was
thinking about bringing Western style
weddings to Vietnam for two reasons:
Western couples would be able to
experience Vietnamese culture in their
weddings and Vietnamese couples
could try new wedding styles from
Western countries, such as an outdoor
wedding or a beach wedding, which were
