Hiring Day of Wedding Coordinator
Hiring Day of Wedding Coordinator
Day of Wedding Coordinator is a mis-understood concept. The role of a wedding or event coordinator can be one of a life saver. For couples that don’t have a huge budget for a full-service coordinator, there are event planning packages available that can be customized to fit their planning needs and their budget.
What is a Day-of-Coordinator?
There is no such thing as a day of coordinator. The reality is a month of coordinator. Most planners need at least a month to review your contracts, do at least one walk-through meeting at the venue, finalize a timeline and review which projects have been completed and what is remaining.
Who needs a day-of-coordinator?
Couples that are getting married for the first time and or individuals who have little time to plan due to work and or school schedules. The event coordinator will help couples keep their stress level down.
What questions should couples ask prospective Day-of-Coordinators?
Ask them about difficult planning situations that they have encountered and how they handled it.
What kind of impression do they give you? Are they enthusiastic about your wedding or event?
Is the planner listening to you or is she or he doing all the talking?
Ask about their packages and what they entail?
What prep work should you do before the meeting with the planner?
Read reviews on-line before you book an appointment. Check out their work and see if their style and experience matches what you are seeking. Check out day-of-coordinator packages in your area to make sure that you know the price range. Our packages for non-estate weddings and special events start at $2500.

Our company produced a beautiful wedding at Saddlerock Ranch in Malibu, California. Our bride had a vision and our goal was to make it come to fruition. Here are a few photos from the wedding.
