Do i need a Day-of coordinator?

Vanessa, on August 3, 2018 at 13:29 Posted in Wedding reception 0 6

What are your thoughts? I get month-of and day-of coordination included through my venue and those who have also had their wedding at my venue seem to give the coordination great reviews. My question is should I also have someone who is in charge of coordination and scheduling since we will be going from church, to photos, to the venue? People always say the venue coordinator works for the venue but a wedding coordinator works for you. Are there things I need to worry about other than what the venue is in charge of?

    I think I misundersttod your original post. I will be skipping on a day of coordinator. We will also have a venue coordinator and I will be recruiting family to make sure everything else runs smoothly.

    I have one included with the venue that I am using for the venue but obviously that person will not be coordinating everything else on the day (timing, making sure everything runs smoothly). Just wondering if I need the extra coordination or if someone in my family or bridal party should be able to take this on.

    I would definitely consider a day off coordinator especially if it is included with your venue. I am seriously considering a day off coordinator, I would like to have someone to make sure everything flows correctly.

    We didn't have a coordinator. It was fine. We reviewed the schedule and transportation with our wedding party beforehand so everyone knew what to expect, where to be, and when, and it worked out well!

    Depends how organized you are and whether you have someone who could take the lead for getting everyone together for pictures and such. If you can create a detailed timeline for the beginning of the day yourself, and have a parent, MOH and/or Best Man just make its followed then you’ll be fine. I would honestly try to avoid hiring a coordinator just for that because they’re pretty pricy

    I had a wedding coordinator at the venue who arranged the srt up and break down of the wedding site and reception. Breakfast was served in a merting room for our guests since the reception was set the day before.

    The only suggestion i have for you is to have your sibling to to the reception hall to make sure everything is set up properly as you have invisoned. Any small detail that can be done by them or the with the help of the venue.
