Honestly, my now-husband and I used a day-of-coordinator for our wedding only b/c the venue required it. I'm so glad we did; the peace of mind of having someone there to direct the vendors and do last-minute set-up tasks was enormous. Stephanie's day of coordination service is perfect for the budget-minded bride and groom who are willing to do most of the leg-work of planning and set up and literally just need someone to help with the rehearsal dinner and the ceremony/wedding day itself. However, keep in mind that, sincerely, you get what you pay for…if you expect someone to communicate w/ your vendors pre-wedding, set up all your wedding décor, help you choose your venue or music, etc. this isn’t for you and you need a comprehensive wedding planning/execution package. Fortunately, in her contract, Stephanie very clearly described the duties that would be included for the day-of package and we planned accordingly. We had an intro phone call where we discussed our venue, menu, ceremony traditions or items we will or will not be using, etc. Post call, Stephanie sent a box chart to fill in with the ceremony timeline, specific songs for each part, procession order, etc.--very useful "little details" that we wouldn’t have thought of but need concrete decisions. About 1 month before the wedding, we had 2nd call and she sent templates for the wedding timeline, vendor list, and venue seating chart/layout diagram. We filled them out and got detailed feedback from her on what was practical, missing, should take more/less time. Stephanie, along with the officiant, led the rehearsal portion of the rehearsal dinner and did a fantastic job keeping everything seamless on our wedding day. She responded quickly to emails/phone calls and always answered any questions we had throughout the process. She even visited our venue before the wedding day to meet the owner and familiarize herself with the layout. Great service, highly recommend!
