A venue coordinator oversees the onsite staff, to make sure they are fulfilling their contractual obligations; unlocking doors, serving food on time, turning on lights, controlling the temperature, etc. A lot of times, the venue coordinator is not there for the duration of the event and/or they have other events they are overseeing on propter during the same time.
A wedding coordinator works only for you to make every aspect run smoothly, greet all of your vendors, send out timelines prior to the event, make sure you are having a great time celebrating and to ensure your vision became a reality for you.
Usually, you’ll get your edited photos within 4-6 weeks. Sometimes even sooner, but we want to make sure everything looks just right.
