Wedding Ideas - Coordinator #2

Katie and Chris just happen to be one of those incredible couples that are as beautiful on the inside as they are on the outside. Katie spent years working as Display Coordinator at Anthropologie, so you can just imagine that her wedding would be something special - and you'd be right!

The day before our wedding just happened to be the Fourth of July. Our family and friends were such good sports about giving up their holiday to spend time with us. At 5:00 PM we headed to the Inne of the Abington to meet with our venue's day-of coordinator, Courtney.

So, when we last left off, the wedding was basically planned, but I didn't have locations confirmed for anything. I started reaching out to the wedding coordinator after Christmas to try to get these details nailed down. And...I never got any responses back to my emails.

If you're in the mood for GIANT crepe paper flower bouquets, a sweet and impromptu first look, and a couple super obviously and deliriously in love, then this wedding is your jam. Oh, and this bride's experience with a day-of coordinator (who we know well!), is invaluable.

It's a good practice to rehearse your wedding ceremony before the fact, so everyone knows what to do. Our officiant and coordinator recommended it (and included it in their fees), so we decided to hold a rehearsal for our bridal party the day before the wedding.

We're in the final countdown to wedding day and though I'm getting a lot of help from our day of coordinator with vendors and timelines, there were still some small last minute projects on my plate: No Seating Plan Signage I've had this gigantic framed cork board for a long time.

After growing up with a passion for weddings and events, and training in the industry for many years, Caitlin began her own business to fill a niche she felt was left empty - the coordinator who does exactly what you need done, with a vision that you make a reality together!

Dear The Bridal Guru, I am been talking to various wedding coordinators. I feel I need someone to help me and to coordinate all the vendors and assist me in my planning. Most are priced about the same. But one coordinator was about half the price of the others.

The Offbeat Bride: Elizabeth, Global Technical Marketing Coordinator Her offbeat partner: Steve, Landscape Supply Date and location of wedding: Cambridge Mill, Cambridge, Ontario and Chicopee Tube Park, Kitchener, Ontario- September 10, 2016 We decided to do a DIY Super Mario wedding.

When Ashley brought her love of the color pink and extensive milk glass collection to coordinator Leigh Pearce, they decided to create a Southern styled vintage milk glass wedding. Fabulous, right!? This day was exceptionally captured by Anna Paschal Photography!

The Offbeat Bride: Erika, Facility Coordinator (and Tribesmaid) Her offbeat partner: Fernando, Options Trader Date and location of wedding: Sandals Royal Plantation, Ocho Rios, Jamaica - July 31, 2014 Our offbeat wedding at a glance: We are non-traditionalists who were just looking for something beautiful and intimate.

The Blogcademy, the blogging and business workshop I co-run, recently advertised for an events coordinator. I've never hired anyone before (I don't think my husband counts, he was a bit of a shoo-in!) or had to go through job applications, so this was actually a massive learning experience for me too.

This glamorous vintage wedding was a Gatsby styled surprise for the bride and groom. This adorable couple left the planning up to their fabulous coordinator, When Pigs Fly Events, who filled their day with vintage 1920′s themed decor and even a secret speakeasy for the after reception party!

Congratulations to Shuntal Dean and Dorenus Johnikin as they celebrate their one year anniversary. This beautiful couple married December 14, 2013 at First Baptist Church in Clinton. The couple and their friends then celebrated at the historic King Edward Hotel in downtown Jackson, MS. Debbie Simmons of Signature Occasions was the wedding coordinator who pulled [...]

There's a common perception among engaged couples who don't have a full-service wedding planner that they only need help the day of the wedding. What these couples don't realize: It's critical that their coordinator become involved at least one month before the wedding in order for their day to run seamlessly.

After I had my first look with my parents, the wedding coordinator ushered us all out of the spa. A horse drawn carriage was waiting to take my dad and me to the ceremony site. All photos are from Phil Steingard Studio (unless otherwise noted). We took some photos...

I love receiving styled shoot submissions, and today’s is extra-special!  The coordinator and stylist for this shoot is not a wedding professional looking to add to her portfolio, or gain PR, but a bride-to-be who simply fell in love with weddings and the fabulous suppliers who supported her as she planned her day.  I’m not […]

Last week we had the fun opportunity to meet with our florist/day-of coordinator for the first time. We are working with Beth of Wild Flowers, Inc. She was listed as a suggested vendor by our venue, and I was really excited that she offered month-of coordination packages in addition to floral services.
