Question about DOC's

On average how much do they cost? I'm looking for someone that will meet with me once, go over my idea. Maybe confirm vendors the week of, then stay with us till we get settled at the hall. So day of, just help make sure everything goes smoothly and all that stuff.
I have a very tight budget but the anxiety already is killing me.

Crashing - I used A Modern Day Affair for exactly what you are looking for - they have a partial day package. They (you get 2 DOCs) were with us in the morning to make sure everything went smoothly and stayed on time (we did pics before the ceremony) and made sure everything at the RH was set up correctly. Then they were there through about 1/2 of the reception. They were great and I would highly recommend them (and the price was very reasonable - I think about $250 for a partial day and $450 for a full day)

It varies. I was quoted anywhere from 350 to 1250. I am using piece of cake events and she was closer to the bottom range.

I agree with this 100%, and Christine from POC is really awesome.

I am using cheeky glam! Most prices are in the 300-500 range. Some are as high as 1000.

I'm still debating whether or not we need one since FH has been on top of EVERYTHING.

THIS!!!!! They are amazing and have helped with my pre-planning and I know that they will be on top of everything for me that day.. even though I am very organzied and OCD and have everything planned to the second, I know that I will be so happy I have them to turn over the reins to on the day.

Re: Question about DOC's

I'm in the EXACT same position. I've done the research and most of them cost $300 for 6hrs and $500 for the whole day (which usually means 10-12 hours). A few were waaaaay above this price, but I found multiple ones at this price.

Re: Question about DOC's

I second Cheeky Glam- Two of my bridesmaids used the others you speak of here- and whispered to me durning the day that they wished they'd known about Cheeky!!

I would give these ladies our first born.
