When Do You Need a Day-of Wedding Coordinator?
COUPLES PLANNING A WEDDING ON THEIR OWN
Many couples hire a day-of wedding coordinator simply because they are planning their wedding themselves, and they need someone to oversee all the hard work they went through planning the perfect day, goes as planned. After all, you should have some help too, right? You don’t have to do it alone, we are here to support you!
DIY WEDDINGS

All your creativity and personalization with your DIY wedding will come to life with a day of coordinator ensuring all these special details are set up and styled to perfection. We will make sure you aren’t missing any pieces to the wedding; especially small parts non-professionals might overlook.
NON-TRADITIONAL VENUES
While staff at traditional wedding venues know how to seamlessly pull off a wedding – even a traditional venue wedding should have a day of coordinator on the team. Non-traditional venues are a whole other animal when it comes to pulling off. Perhaps you are having your big day at a vineyard, park, private rental space, or even at your home – Couples using non-traditional wedding venues should get a day-of wedding coordinator to make sure the venue is set up properly for their festivities. Non-traditional venues lack onsite wedding staff, so having someone in charge, and making sure all logistics and vendors are running smoothly, is a must!
LARGE MULTICULTURAL WEDDINGS AND EVENTS
Let’s face it, trying to plan a wedding is complicated enough, but add different religions, cultural customs, and formalities into the mix, and you’ve got yourself a whole other layer of complexity! Whether you are having a fusion South Asian / American mixed wedding with elements from both worlds, or a super large traditional Nigerian wedding with elements like two ceremonies – we’ve got you covered. There are a lot of moving parts, a ton of cultural details, decor, and special moments, so having a team of coordinators execute this unique day will be the best investment you make out of the whole wedding!
