ETIQUETTE & TIPS: WHY TO HIRE A "DAY OF WEDDING COORDINATOR"
Let As You Wish give you some tips on why hiring a
"Day of Wedding Coordinator" can save you time & alleviate stress!
No need to worry about...
When does the cake arrive?
Does the photographer have a shot list?
What time does the DJ/Band take a break?
Who brought an "emergency kit" for the bride?
Who will cue the best man on when to give his toast?
Who brings the bridal party food & champagne while they are getting ready?
When the rental company drops off your linens, we can set the tables & chairs to your desire
Organize your cake, gift & name card tables
Disperse gift bags to each guest in their hotel room
Coordinate the band & MC on timing of breaks & cue speeches
Arrange centerpieces from florist & after the wedding return
vases &/or donate the flowers to your local hospital or charity
Will bring wedding gifts to your home after the reception & coordinate clean-up
We understand that things "happen" on the big day!
