Coordination Considerations

Top 10 reasons to hire a coordinator.


EVEN IF YOU HAVE BEEN PLANNING since you were a kid, chances are you’re overwhelmed with all the stuff that needs to get done. From finding vendors to choosing a rehearsal dinner locale figuring out who to invite, there’s a ton of activities on your to-do-list. Wouldn’t it be nice to –and a big relief- to have a little or make that a lot of help?


Hiring a planner has its advantages. Wedding coordinators are the perfect solution to your problem of too much to do in too little time. Whether you think of them as planners, coordinators or consultants, these wedding professionals know a thing or two about organizing amazing events.


Consultants aren’t just for the rich and the famous. Their services run the gamut from day of planning help to full on coordination packages. There’s a plan of action for every bride and every wedding. If you think you don’t need a consultant’s help, think again.


1. Referrals

2. Experience

3. Efficiency

4. Ready for Anything

5. Stay on Budget

6. Impartial Opinions

7. It’s All in the Details

8. Creativity Counts

9. Prioritize

10. Smooth Sailing

You may think that you can’t afford to hire a coordinator, but that’s not necessarily the case. Planning packages range from the small and simple day of package, to the moderate month-of package, to the all-inclusive package. Whether you spend a few hundred dollars or a few thousand dollars, a coordinator’s services and experience are so valuable; you can’t afford to not hire one.



Well Ladies, I know this is a lot of food for thought but definitely something to consider. Think of this way at the end of the day you may spend $ 600 (Cake), Bridal Gown $1000, Banquet Hall 17, 000, your PEACE OF MIND (PRICELESS)!
