A Day of Coordinator can save your big day by being present and on site to ensure that event set up and execution of your vision and plans go off without a hitch. Hiring a day of coordinator benefits not only the wedding couple, but the entire vendor team and venue as well. Here are the top 5 reasons why a day of coordinator is an invaluable part of your wedding day.
Reason 1: You’ll Have a Liaison Between You & All of Your Vendors
Your vendors will have questions. They will need a contact person the day of your event. Instead of calling you or your bridal party members, your Day-Of Coordinator will work with your vendors ahead of time to ensure they are all set to carry out their duties on your wedding day. The week of your wedding your Coordinator will be reaching out to your vendors with a final timeline and details they need to know. Instead of having your vendors contact you, they will have a professional to go to and you’ll be able to rest easy and relax.
At A Beautiful Day by Christina, we work with you ahead of time to construct the perfect timeline for your wedding day so that nothing is overlooked or forgotten so that we can take care of all of your other vendors come time for your special day!
Reason 2: They’ll Help Bring Your Wedding Day Vision To Life
It will be your Day of Coordinator, not the Venue Coordinator will be responsible for all those little things such as programs, place cards, menu cards, signage, guest book table decor, gift table items, memory table photos, and in some cases centerpieces if your florist won’t be on site on the day of your wedding. The venue coordinator is there to ensure that the venue is clean and nothing gets damaged or broken and that all common areas within the venue are taken care of. They also help the set-up for your ceremony and reception by setting up tables, chairs, and also helping with the room flip to transition from your ceremony to your reception if needed.
Tip: if your venue comes with a coordinator, be sure to ask specific questions as to what their coordinator’s duties and responsibilities are and what they will do and not do on your wedding day.
Reason 3: You Deserve To Enjoy Your Wedding Day Without Stress
Your wedding day is a once in a lifetime experience. You should be enjoy and be able to be fully present in the moment instead of worrying about if everything is being taken care of and if your vendors have arrived on time.
When hiring a Day-Of Coordinator, you’re hiring a professional to oversee your entire event and they’ll do it with a level of expertise because they have done dozens or hundreds of times before! Think of hiring a professional Day-Of Coordinator as investing in an emotional insurance policy for your happiest day. You have someone in your corner to make sure everything goes according to plan, and should it get off track a little, there is someone to help get it back on track without stress!
Reason 4: Your Vendors Will Appreciate It!
We often hear vendors say “thank goodness our couple hired a Day-Of Coordinator!” Your vendors feel supported and they know what to expect when there is a professional hired to oversee your wedding day. When you don’t have a Day-Of Coordinator hired, many of the duties of a coordinator will fall onto all of your other vendors. For example- would you want your photographer worrying if the DJ has arrived on time to start the ceremony as scheduled? No! When you don’t have a Day-Of Coordinator hired to support them, your vendors will be trying to help out in areas that are not only their job but also not their area of expertise. You won’t get the best out of them, which, isn’t that why you hired them in the first place? Let your vendors do their jobs and execute flawlessly.
When you hire A Beautiful Day by Christina, we reach out to your vendors immediately to introduce ourselves and let them you have hired us as your Day-of Coordinators and that we look forward to working with them to give you a beautiful wedding day. This way, your vendors will know who to go to with any questions leading up to your wedding day and especially on your wedding day.
Reason 5: It Will Be The Best Money You Spend For Your Special Day

November 14, 2020
Writing some thank you notes today and saved the best for last. Mostly because I don’t even know where to begin. Thank you for guiding us through this process during such a chaotic time to a day more perfect and magical than we could’ve imagined or hoped for during even the best of times. Thank you for the relief of knowing we were in the best hands and that you knew what you were doing, even when I was clueless. Thank you for working tirelessly and endlessly to make sure everything was perfect while we enjoyed one of the happiest days of our family’s lives. We were able to be fully present and together and that is just a huge, huge gift. You were both so wonderful to work with and the words I kept hearing were “perfect” and “fairytale.” That was the dream and you made happen. We will always remember that day with the greatest joy. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. You are wonderful and we are blessed to know you both. Mary~ Mother of the Bride
