Hire the day of coordinator.

As we talked earlier, the JW, we're very involved on the wedding day in many aspects, but we are ultimately not the day of coordinator.

We're not the wedding planner.

And so I've really been encouraging my brides to.

Book a day of coordinator, work it into the budget and a professional day of coordinator too.

I think some couples will try to, you know, find a cousin or a coworker or a friend that could be the day of coordinator.

But ultimately, you know, if you haven't worked a wedding, you just don't know what to anticipate.

So I think it's so important that couples book a professional day of coordinator to carry out the plans, you know.

The day goes by so quickly and the couple should not be having to deal with any issues or setting things up on the wedding day.

I think it's so important for them to just be in the moment and be hands off.

So to have that day of coordinator that will take care of everything for them, they're kind of the glue that keeps all the other vendors together and just be that extra set of hands to really take care of the couple and their wedding party and all their vendors is so important.

It's always my biggest piece of advice.

Yes.

And, you know, some some of our couples, they choose not to hire a day of coordinator.

And so when you don't have like a day of contact, ultimately, it's going to be the couple that the vendors will hire.

you know, ask questions with.

And I never want to, you know, be bugging my couples on the wedding day.

I love to check in with them, of course.

But, you know, if there is a question or if there is something that needs to be dealt with, you know, we don't want to go to the couple and be asking those questions.

We want to go to the dedicated, you know, coordinator or whoever the contact is to be able to handle, you know, anything that may pop up as, you know, wedding days.
