There’s a very common question that I hear from brides when they’re starting in on their wedding planning: “How early is too early to…,” or “how late is too late to…?” In regards to booking vendors, it totally depends on the type of vendor and your location.

A few {Thursday Tips} ago I wrote about the differences between a venue coordinator and a wedding coordinator. Today I thought I would touch on the differences between having a wedding planner and having a day-of coordinator. The professional who handles both of these instances (full planning and day-of coordination) is definitely a wedding […]
