The Differences Between A Wedding Coordinator + A Venue Coordinator

"Oh, I don't need a wedding coordinator, my venue has a coordinator!" 

Unfortunately, this is a something we hear from couples far too often + we are here to tell you that wedding coordinators + venue coordinators are NOT the same thing! Let us break it down for you ;)

Look at their title + you'll know exactly what they are responsible for: wedding coordinators are there to assist + manage the wedding as a whole while venue coordinators, yup you guessed it, just focus on the venue! Mother-in-law being a nightmare? Did Maid of Honor spill red wine on her dress? Cake topper nowhere to be found? Wedding coordinator to the rescue! While it's great to ensure you have a venue coordinator to make sure the venue is in tip top shape, let the wedding coordinator professionals handle the small details the day of! We will become your best friend, confidant, + right hand man to do anything + everything needed to make your wedding day a flawless success! 

Check out the responsibilities of the two job titles below for a clearer understanding of your vendors + what they are responsible for handling.

Still confused? Reach out to us HERE. We'd be happy to chat more about the differences between the two. It's important to have someone there managing the venue + then a separate coordinator to manage everything else!
