Do I Need An On The Day Wedding Coordinator?

Perhaps you have the day planned to perfection but now you would like someone to take over the reins so you can take in every moment of the day, without the stress of managing it.

During the weeks prior to the wedding you would like time to relax or perhaps you are just too busy to take on any more as the day draws near. A wedding coordinator may be the right service for you.

A wedding coordinator will handle logistics, create schedules and timelines, communicate with the venue and suppliers on the remaining details and timings, be the main point of contact on the day for suppliers, oversee set up, assist the guests and be on hand for you throughout.

It is of course an option to hand over these responsibilities to your friends and family, but some couples prefer the option of a wedding coordinator so that they can enjoy the day with the people they love, and their guests can fully enjoy the experience.

Who uses a Wedding Coordinator?

Couples who use a wedding coordinator are generally those who want to play an active role in planning their wedding. However, they would like someone to take care of things in the last few weeks, ensure they haven’t missed anything and completely relax on the day. Letting the wedding coordinator make sure everything runs to plan takes the stress away from the day.

People who use a wedding coordinator are usually very organised and detail orientated and want to ensure the day runs smoothly.

These couples also want their guests to have a fantastic experience and be present in the day rather than focusing on whether things are running to time or if things are in the right place.

What is included in the Wedding Coordinator service?

• Around 6 weeks before the wedding, plans and priorities for the day are handed over to the wedding coordinator.
• Creating timelines and detailed ‘on the day’ schedules.
• Liaising with your suppliers and venue in the weeks before the wedding.
• Coordinating suppliers on the day.
• Overseeing set up.
• Adding finishing touches to décor.
• Timeline management on the day.
• Being the main point of contact and assisting guests on the day.
• Taking care of any issues that come up on the day and resolving them.

What are the benefits?

It saves time.

• On the run up to the wedding it allows you time to relax, knowing all the logistics, schedules and suppliers are being taken care of.
• On the day itself, everything is set up and perfectly placed while you start your day with the ones you love.
• During the day you will have the time to completely focus on each moment rather than managing suppliers and guests.

Experience and Expertise

You will have an experienced wedding planner on hand to look over your plans and discuss your priorities from round 6 – 8 weeks before the wedding. They will check nothing has been missed, be able to advise on any issues and give advice on any concerns for the day.
