Even before you got
engaged and started the wedding planning process, you might have heard
the term “wedding planner” or “wedding coordinator” and thought they
were pretty much the same person..... Not so much!!!
Think of a
wedding planner as your new best friend. This person has no other job
but to make sure
your wedding is exactly what you want it to be. Wedding
Planners are the person you call shortly after you get engaged.
Once
you
hire a wedding planner, you give
them a very broad (or very detailed) vision of your wedding and they can
then help you pick out everything from a wedding venue to wedding
florists, caterer, furniture rentals, invitations, and more. Depending
on your time and budget constraints, you can then be as involved as you
want to be.
The wedding
coordinator is pretty much a gift from the gods on your wedding day.
They are the woman or man behind the curtain, making sure that your
wedding day goes as smoothly as possible so you don’t have to worry
about ANYTHING.
They will take all the hard work and research you’ve
done and turn those plans into reality. You typically meet with a
wedding coordinator several months or several weeks (depending on the
service level you opt to get from them) before your wedding to go over
your wedding timeline, guest count, venue details, and more. They make
sure the tables are set on time, the guests are seated in the right
spot, the ceremony starts and ends on time, things are packed up and
sent back to the vendors and that everything is running as smoothly as
possible.
