"Our wedding coordinator, Amanda, was absolutely amazing to work with!! She was the glue that held all of us together and made our special day go smoothly. I honestly don’t know what we would of done without her! She kept everyone organized and even got in touch with all of our vendors before hand to make sure everyone knew where they needed to be and when which helped relieve some of the wedding planning stress. We had told her an issue we were having with our DJ and that we were nervous he wasn’t going to show up and she went above and beyond and had a backup DJ all lined up just in case. I have nothing but good things to say about Amanda and I’m so glad we went with Complete Weddings + Events for our big day!! I would highly recommend them! The owner, Sue was also wonderful to work with!"
"It was so easy to work with everyone! They were absolute professionals and provided expert guidance through the planning process."
"Everyone we communicated with was so helpful and the service we had from our DJ and videographer was amazing. Shoutout to Darcy and Jose! They were awesome. Darcy had so many ideas to make our ceremony and reception flow well and made it fun. Jose did amazing on our video and I can’t stop watching it! Thank you to all of you at Complete!!"
You will have unlimited contact with a coordinator from the day you book- through wedding day! We ask you to communicate through text or email, so we can have a written record of your ideas and plans.
Your coordinator will contact you 60 days out and set up a meeting to begin gathering your plans and details up to that point. They’ll double check all logistics, figure out if anything isn’t planned for yet, or delegate tasks as needed to ensure smooth setup and teardowns/any plans for every vendor involved in your wedding day. They are responsible for creating a detailed timeline for you and all vendors to have. They will also take over the communication with your entire vendor team, to be sure everyone has their needs met and the plans will work for everyone.
The short answer – yes! If you don’t already have a wedding planner and don’t plan to get one, a day-of coordinator takes the stress off your shoulders so you can relax on your actual wedding day, for less than the cost of a wedding planner. They make sure your wedding is set up perfectly to your vision, make sure your vendors arrive on time, and are your go-to for anything you need that day! If there’s an issue, you will likely never know because they got it handled without needing to bother you. They’ve got you!
The price of a wedding coordinator varies depending on length of service requested, the date and location of event(s), and how much assistance is desired for setup and teardown of your wedding. On average our wedding coordinators are hired for 8-12 hours, and typically costs between $1,895 and $2,495 depending on the date and location of event(s).
Gratuity is not included in the price of your service. Whatever you feel is best to tip your professional(s) at the end of the night is up to you! While 10% to 20% tips for wedding vendors is a guide; nothing is expected, but it’s always appreciated!
If you need more time than what you booked prior to your event, you’re able to add time on at any point (even the night-of) with any service for an additional charge! Just let us know, and we’ll take care of you on your special day!
