Re: Poll
I've done all the planning myself, and might I say, a very good job at that. I'll continue doing my own planning and DOC duties...I'll just assign someone else for that day to handle the little details.
Re: Poll
ive done all the planning myself but on the day of we will have a DOC. but only b/c it is a family friend, otherwise i wouldnt have been able to afford one. but i must say, she was the DOC at my sisters wedding and when we realized we were short a boquet as we were walking into the church she pulled tools out of her bag and made one from flowers in the other boquets. took her 3 min flat and she saved the day!
Re: Poll
I did all of the planning myself, but hired a DOC for three hours on the day of. She's awesome. She is going to oversee the reception site, contact vendors, distribute tips and all of the other little things...
Re: Poll
I desperately tried to convince FH that I NEEDED to have a DOC and he just doesn't get it. I am a total control freak when it comes to planning things, very @nal at times but in the end I always pull it off and everything turns out better than expected. The day of I just didn't want to have to worry about stuff that someone else could handle for me. I want to be worry free that day. I explained to him that if we did get a DOC that in the end he'll be very happy because if I'm stressed then he's gonna be stressed, it's so worth the money if you have it.

Re: Poll
I've done all the planning myself and held it down pretty well. I thought about getting a DOC for the day of but the banquet manager is going to be there and take care of everything for us. I think if I were having the reception somewhere where there is more than one wedding going on, I think I would have gotten a DOC. But we are lucky enough to have the whole place to ourselves.
