Q:

What are the benefits of hiring a wedding/special event coordinator?

A:

A wedding/special event coordinator is your guide, confidant, and expert counselor as you plan your special day. Your coordinator serves as your creative planner and partner, overseeing logistical matters, and providing a wealth of ideas, insights, and options. With an in-depth knowledge of the facility and its features, ceremony ideas, floral design, photography/videography, menu, entertainment, travel and lodging, your coordinator will act as your personal advocate, collaborating with you to create an organized, stress-free environment that will allow you to enjoy every moment of your celebration.
