View quoted message Fair enough. Destination weddings have a wedding coordinator that does take care of most things for you though the cost will be more if the wedding planner here says their tickets are paid by you and the rooms. Something to tack on the amount.

There was a really nice wedding planner who was reasonably priced at the Toronto Bridal Show last year - I can’t remember her name or the company but she might be there again this year!


There will also be other planners there - I think it’s this weekend.

I definitely want a full service wedding planner, as this will be a "destination" wedding for us since I live in Boston I guess to clarify - I don't want a luxury wedding, just a regular one!, but it seems most full service planners are specifically geared towards luxury weddings and I just want a regular one to help with the planning.

Planners are gping to be expensive when it comes to luxury. Day of Coordinator can do the same job if arranged to get delivery from all vendors of renting decor. Is this something you may have considered about plus they can assist with having your DJ, Photographer and others set with anything they require.
