coordinating
My job as your day-of-coordinator looks like this:
You download all of your thoughts, concerns, hopes, and plans for the day to me, and then I make sure your day happens... the way you want it to!
As a bride, I want you to so delight in your wedding day. That means not worrying about the problems that are sure to arise. If you give me your vision, then I can be your brain and put out all of the inevitable fires while you sit pretty with a mimosa. Sounds amazing, right?
Practically speaking, here's what I offer as a day-of-coordinator:
-
Communicating with bridal party and families, ensuring everyone is where they need to be for pictures, hairdressers, make-up, etc.
-
Assistance with setup and teardown before, before, during and after the event.
-
Coordination with vendors as they begin to drop off florals, food, decor, etc. I will also work with the DJ/Band, officiant, caterers and any other applicable vendors.
-
Ensuring the decor and florals actually look how the bride wants them to, and working with the vendors to fix things as needed.
-
Coordination at the rehearsal. I work with the bridal party on timing, orientation, flow, etc. I will also typically stand with flower girls/ring bearers to help them with timing.
Rates:
Coordination rates start at $800 and go up based on the specific needs of the bride.
$800 Coordination:
-Assistance with the Rehearsal
-Half day of assistance on the day-of (typically about 10 hours).
-Includes: set-up/design assistance, assistance with transitions, communication with vendors, family and bridal party, and tear-down. Specific duties are limited to the time frame of the coordinator on the day-of.
