We plan to have our wedding in June in The Chaple at Stanley Park. It's a nice place that you don't really need much decoration. Their price includes marriage commissionar of your choice of chinese/english, etc. The place holds 50 people the most. Perfect for a small wedding. After that you can just go down stairs to stanley park for photos. Inside the chapel's 4th floor is where you can have your reception. Incase it rains outside, you can stay inside the building and entertain your guests.
If you can find a place such as above where you can do everything, including backup plan all in one location, you don't really need a wedding planner.
