Hiii! Curious about your wedding experience if you chose to not hire a day-of-coordinator. My wedding is going to be pretty laid back. The ceremony and reception will be at 2 separate venues, but there really won't be too much to set up, and my bridal party, mother and I have plenty of time to set up in the morning. We are having a guitarist at our ceremony for just an hour. We have a small bridal party and only 50 guests. Not doing a garter/bouquet toss. Won't have a DJ. MOH will be announcing first dance/parent dances/grand entrance, etc. So, do I really need a DOC?
The only things I'm concerned about are who's going to tell us to walk down the aisle, (although I'm sure I could find somebody) and to notify the officiant/musician when the ceremony is about to start. And just someone to make sure the ceremony rentals are set up nicely, which I could also do myself or designate someone else.
Anywho, let me know your experience if you went without one! And/or what you think I should do! TIA
