Day of Coordinating

So lately, I have noticed that many of my brides say that other event planners in the area won't offer one service that I have specialized in. That is the Day of Coordinating service. This is where the bride plans her wedding herself and I step in at the last minute to coordinate the actual wedding day. Below is a description of everything I do for the bride and groom on their wedding day:

Designed for clients who are through the planning process, but need a little extra help to ensure their wedding day goes smoothly.
  • Contact and coordinate with vendors prior to wedding day to confirm details
  • Organize wedding procession outline, assistance at rehearsal evening before, directing rehearsal if necessary
  • Early arrival on wedding day to ensure proper arrangements are in place (candles, programs, flowers, music, etc.)
  • Ensure wedding party and family have appropriate flowers prior to ceremony
  • Organize and direct ceremony
  • Prepare itinerary for the entire day so that no detail gets forgotten
  • Set up place cards, favors, accessories, menus, table décor, flowers, etc.
  • Ensure tables are set appropriately
  • Greet and direct guests for guest book sign-in and gift placements
  • Oversee timing of events for introductions, first dance, toast, bouquet and garter toss, cake cutting, food and beverage service, etc.
  • Collect toasting glasses, cake cutting set, gifts, etc. at the end of the evening
  • Personally assist the bride and groom for the entire day
  • Provide a Wedding Emergency Kit—everything the bride will need
  • Eight hours of wedding day assistance so you can enjoy your day!
Keep this valuable and BUDGET FRIENDLY service in mind!!
