Why you should hire a wedding day coordinator

Your wedding day is approaching. After months of planning, every moment has been thoughtfully designed to reflect your love story. You’ve chosen the perfect flowers, curated your playlist, and dreamed about how the day will unfold. But when the day finally arrives, who ensures that everything comes together seamlessly?

That’s where a wedding day coordinator steps in.

As a wedding day coordinator, my role is to take all the plans you’ve so carefully created and bring them to life so you, your fiancé, and your loved ones can be fully present. Starting about three months before your wedding, we’ll meet to review your vision and craft a personalized, minute-by-minute timeline that ensures the day flows effortlessly from your first look to your final dance.

I’ll also connect with each of your vendors ahead of time, introducing myself as their point of contact. From delivery schedules to last-minute adjustments, I’ll make sure everyone is aligned and informed so you don’t have to field questions or solve problems on your wedding morning.

Even with the most thoughtful planning, weddings can have their share of surprises, a missing boutonniere, a late shuttle, or an unexpected sprinkle of rain. My job is to handle those moments quietly and gracefully, ensuring everything is resolved in your best interest while you stay blissfully unaware.

You might be wondering, “But doesn’t my venue already have a coordinator?” A great question, and an important distinction. A venue coordinator manages what happens within the venue itself: catering, setup of venue-owned items, and facility logistics. A wedding day coordinator, on the other hand, manages everything that’s personal to you; your décor, your timeline, your unique details, and the emotional flow of the day. I also collaborate closely with the venue’s team to make sure both sides work collaboratively.

At the heart of it all, my goal is simple: for you to look back on your wedding day and remember how it felt with the joy, the laughter, the love and not the logistics.
