Re: DOC

Doubtful. I am not sure if it's really necessary.

Re: DOC

Nope...it might be nice but I'm hoping to have everything done well before the wedding so not much to stress about

Re: DOC

As a newlywed I just wanted to offer my opinion.

I at first thought at DOC was a total waste of . I read several threads where girls who got married raved about their DOC and started to look into them.

To try and save $$, I looked into a 1/2 DOC. I hired Lisa from Elite Affairs. Not only was she totally fantastic, but I am so regretting not getting her for the full day. Here are two small examples of why she was fantastic:

- My Mom and Dad were so frazzled with getting to the church on time that they both forgot their personal flowers. My Mom was about to send someone back to the hotel to get them when Lisa arrives with them in her hand!

-My sister bent down the wrong way and split open her MOH dress along the side seam. Lisa was there to sew her up within seconds!!!

Trust me there are PLENTY of other reasons why I recommend having a DOC. If you girls have any questions just shoot me an FM. Good luck with planning!!!

Re: DOC

I am ..

i dont want to have any regrets about not getting one after the wedding. I would cut corners in my budget to make it work.. esp for a hall that does more than 1 wedding at a time and if you are stressor like me ..

Re: DOC

I think its worth it..a DOC can be less than $ 500 too. I am def looking into getting one.

Re: DOC

I know it's TOTALLY worth it - it allows you to enjoy your day a little more... but I don't think I can financially get one, we're buying a house so now every penny counts that much more

Re: DOC

I'm on the fence about it....thinking about it maybe, but I have to look into it some more

Re: DOC

The whole concept of a DOC seems great. Wish I had unlimited funds, but a lot of brides have done without and I don't see the expense as necessary.
