Many brides ask the question 'What is the difference between a 'Day of Coordinator' and a 'Wedding Planner'?

Although it is true that a Day of Coordinator works with you mostly the day of your wedding, and a planner can work with you up to a year before your wedding, they both have different services that they provide.

Emergencies (Inclement Weather Accommodations, Guest Travel coordination, etc...)

Full Wedding Planning Packages include:

Creating a planning calender

Research from A - Z (very important)

Contract reviews

Unlimited One-on-One consultations

Remember all companies do not provide the same services. Some of the services will differ depending on the companies specialties. My background is in Interior Design, so we provide decorating services.

I hope I have been some help to you. Good Luck and Congratulations.
