Hi there! I'm getting married on 1/11/2020 and it's starting to feel like crunch time! My fiancé and I are going back and forth on whether to use a day-of coordinator or an event planner for the last few months prior to our wedding. We have already booked the major vendors including the venue, DJ, florist, and caterer but we both know we at least need someone there the day of to be the point person for all of our vendors.
We got a quote of $1600 from an event planner in our area who would handle set up, break down, and act as our liaison for 3 months prior to the wedding. We both felt this was somewhat steep but, then again, we know nothing about this process.
I'm just wondering, how did you all handle this? Should we go with the event planner or look more for a cheaper day-of option? Thank you in advance!
