I'm debating if I should make room for one in my budget. The last wedding I was in, the bride had one and she didn't seem like she did much (except be kind of nasty and bossy to us) but to not have to worry about all the little things on the day of would be great. What do you guys think?
I've been a MOH once & a BM Twice, all had a DOC. Three different companies....all three were useless.They did absolutly nothing. What a waste of money.The photographer & mater'd were more in tune to what was going on & what was going to happen next. Save your money.
I didn't have a DOC, nor did I have a bridal party. I didn't miss it.
I guess I'll have to do some research and see how I feel. Do they normally charge just for a meeting?

I booked with Vanessa @ By Your Side Events and our original meeting was free. She's also available by phone/email from the date you book her until the day of your wedding. For me I find her to be invaluable. Because of her I will be able to somewhat relax the week before and day of my wedding instead of stressing about a million different things. FM me if you want more info
def check Vanessa from by your side events

After seeing how hectic my shower was where half my bp did absolutely nothing... and my mom and i were the ones running around trying to get things more organzied... while having 40 people pull us in every which direction, yes.. we are totally glad we'll be having a DOC on the day of... For me, its totally necessary... I get pissed off very easily and if I have to be the one to handle everything, I'd scream... Got a glimpse of that at my shower and I want no part of all that craziness...
On that note, its a personal decision... only you can be the one to say if you truely think you need one...

I agree with Mazz....mine was awesome because all I had to do was enjoy my day...same said for my family and bridal party. She ran errands, moved flowers, coordinated with the photogs..I didnt want to have to do that stuff and I didnt want my fam/friends to either... Having a large bp..she was such a huge help...got people for pictures..kept track of everything and everyone....All we had to do is show up!

I go back and forth with this too. Talked to FH about it and he said, 'Well, let me think about it.' He thinks that the BP should be responsible for some of these things. And I kind of agree with him, but still feel that a DOC would probably make the day easier.
