I'm curious about this also. FH thinks is a waste of money, which I guess is easy for him to say when he's not really involved with planning! LOL!
Once Upon An Event!!! the ladies are great and I'm excited to have them assist on the day. I just want that piece of mind and compared to how much they are vs. the cost of the whole day, I found it to be worth it. FH also agreed I should get it because he knows it will make me feel better lol
Men have no idea how much is being planned. They know of the big things but they don't know there's about 150 other LITTLE things to worry about. I'm having a DOC and my FH is supportive thankfully. I want to stress as least as possible on the day of my wedding
We booked with A Modern Day Affair. FH was on board with a DOC too make sure the day goes smoothly especially at the church. One of the DOC's will be present for our rehearsal at the church to make sure everything is the way we want it the day of.
Once Upon an Event is who we booked!
Cheeky Details.
cheeky! fh didn't believe in it either but I convinced him. he'll see on our wedding day how useful lol.
2013er crashing. I used Cynthia Ross Affairs for my wedding a few weeks ago. Cindy was beyond amazing. She was very helpful through planning and was present at our rehearsal at the church. The day of she was by my side fixing my train/veil, holding my flowers, and made sure EVERYTHING went according to plan. If anything wasn't done right or didn't go as planned that day.. i had no clue. She also had an assistant with her that didn't cost me anything extra. Having a DOC gives you piece of mind on your big day.
Pink peony and once upon an event I met with
We booked with Regina at Cloud Nove, my best friend used them for her wedding where I was MOH and she did a wonderful job.
Ok. This may sound dumb but what exactly does a DOC do? Maybe I'm not close enough to be stressed but I'm confused about what they'll actually be doing the day of that couldn't be done by myself, bridal attendant, or family. Thanks ladies!

FH thinks that the bridal attendant at the venue is going to help with everything...is this true? won't she be there when our florist is there making sure my vision 'comes to life'?? isnt the bridal attendant the one to make sure everything goes smoothly at the venue? help me out bc if not the next appointment im making is for a DOC
I think the Maitre'd and bridal attendants are helpful when it comes to certain things. But the DOC is all about taking care of ANYTHING you can think of. They can work w/the vendors in the days/weeks leading up to the wedding so they know what to expect. They deal w/logistics, tipping, pretty much whatever you want them to do. I just needed someone to be sort of the other part of my brain that day so i can relax a little bit. You work with them ahead of time so they have a clear vision of what their main focus will be on your wedding day. The bridal attendants and Maitre'd are really just helping with the little things.
I decided not to book one, but I know the girls at Modern Day Affair and they are absolutely wonderful!!
curious... how much does a DOC cost?
