Two questions girls...

Anyone having a day-of coordinator? If so, what are you paying?

Also, does anyone have any quotes on 2 dozen roses CP? Like the bubble vase ones?

Re: Two questions girls...

I really don't see the point of a coordinator, but at burtons, the CP are $65 and at Flowers by Michelle they are $75

Re: Two questions girls...

my friend hired Laura from LA Productions - I know that she was also LIWs Vendor of the Year last year.

Don't know what she paid, but I do know that she didn't have to worry about anything the day of her wedding. She had a minor dress problem, and she was fixed up by Laura in minutes! Laura made sure the tables were perfect, pretty much made sure that everything my friend wanted was done right. I don't think she paid too much, but I know that she was EXTREMELY happy.

Re: Two questions girls...

I haven't looked at florists yet....and I am not planning on getting a coordinator. Maybe as the day approaches, I'll change my mind, but right now I don't think I need one.

Re: Two questions girls...

No coordinator for me. The church and the hall each have someone designated as a 'coordinator' and thats good enough for us. If I had more $$$$ I would get a coordinator.

Re: Two questions girls...

yeah, I think if you are having a reception at a full service hall or space where you have a BM, a coordinator is just an extra person to pay.

perhaps there may be a clitch or two that the coordinator could help with, but the way I see it, that's also what my bridal party is there for!

flowers are ridiculous....I am SERIOUSLY considering doing my own CP's!

Re: Two questions girls...

I'm considering it - only because I want someone in charge of tipping the vendors (and I don't want to have my rents do it and I don't trust the Best Man!) Plus I am considering the Polaroid Guestbook - then I could get one and she could be in charge of that too!

Re: Two questions girls...

Did you get a price from the Flower Barn? I think thats what he was gonna give me.. but for the life of me, i can't remember how much. I hate how places don't give you quote sheets!!! How can you remember every little thing. Frustrating!
