We’re both actually in our mutual friend’s bridal party and have been organizing her parties, and we’ve realized we’re very similar when it comes to planning so she asked me to help with her wedding that’s happening a month after our friend. Congratulations and I hope your new side hustle goes well! 😉😄

    I just attended a small wedding at the beginning of May 2021. There was no coordinator or timeline and the bride was super stressed during the reception. Her MOH had to tell the DJ she was about to make her MOH speech and bride did not set up a timeline to do father/bride dance, bouquet toss, garters toss so they never happened. I highly encourage anyone to have at least a timeline if these kinds of traditions are important to you!

    I've been a wedding coördinator twice for good friends (ended up to be 2 weddings in the same week 🤪). They both were wonderful but sooo exhausting! I can't even tell you how much time it took. In the wedding week, I took up 5 holiday days. Excel was my best friend. My tips: Being prepared on the day itself was the most important for me. I had two folders with all the wedding details for the day, so everyone could look up things when I was busy. Even order of wedding pictures. Photoframes on side tables with the planning, table setting, etc. helped a lot as well.

    We thought we didn't have the money (we're quoted $1100+), managed to find someone who does setup and teardown of ceremonies and receptions who is trying to branch out and is doing this service for us for $250 and the only reason it's that amount is because it's a midweek wedding and she needs to take the day off work. Beyond thrilled that we have someone who is going to be there to support us on our big day, and Jamie, I've sent her your channel to watch and get inspired =)

    I got some quotes for a coordinator that ranged from $900 to $1600 in Canada. I'm getting married February 2023. Not exactly a popular time for weddings, so I was hoping to get a decent discount. I didn't. I could scrams up the money, but it's a bit of a painful idea. My sister-in-law agreed to be the coordinator. I intend to be as organized as possible. I'm a small business owner, so my staff are going to be paid to tear down the hall the next day. My guess list is 48 to 50 people, so not too large. I'm also using wedding wire, which allows me to stay in communication with all of my guests before the wedding. I'm going to probably do a Q & A message before the wedding. It will explain parking, order of events and possibly the menu. I figure if they know what the buffet is serving before the wedding, their will be less people standing in line trying to figure out what is what. I don't want to slow down that process. I'm also going to print out the itinerary and order of events for my sister-in-law and all of the vendors.

(She asked me to) It is a Wedding of about 125 guests on a friend's ranch in western Colorado. Beautiful setting but limited parking, very limited budget and outdoors. Tried to talk to them about having it indoors b/c Colorado weather is so unpredictable and wildfires up that area are a possibility that time of year. And flowers!!!!! Very few florists in our area and those that are charge Aspen prices!!! Momma's going to need a vacation after this! LOL!!!!!!!

    For my daughters wedding we had a coordinator who came with the venue. She was wonderful getting us connected with food and flowers, etc… She was there the day before for set up and the day of but I had people continually coming up to me for direction and to answer questions. I had just had a fall the day before and broke a rib and it was a lot to be the mother of the bride, with my ribs wrapped and in pain when I moved, and then having people also expecting me to have all the answers.

I'm trying to anticipate and avoid the awkward situation (especially with +1's) and don't want to put anyone in a bad situation, but absolutely love both of them, so we'd like to see them at the wedding.

We only really need it for decor(I have like 10-15 centrepieces and maybe numbers for the tables, we don't know yet, the card box and a couple signs) and maybe pictures, should I get one only for that? I assume the price would change since the coordinator won't have too much to coordinate. The ceremony and venue are in the same restaurant and they provide everything too so I have no vendors. Only photographer and restaurant. We are doing Spotify too so no DJ. And the bridal party are 4 people in total so hahahah
