A day of wedding coordinator is not mandatory but HIGHLY recommended. A day-of wedding coordinator is typically responsible for making sure all of your vendors arrive on time and do the job as expected. As well as helping with any problems that may arise. The last thing you need on your special day is to worry about when and if the cake has arrived. Our venue manager is not responsible for vendors arrival, inventory, etc.
