The Difference Between a Month-of Coordinator and a Venue Coordinator
Wedding day-of coordinators are often referred to as month-of coordinators because their services typically start about a month before the wedding day. The term "day-of coordinator" can be a bit misleading, as their responsibilities extend beyond just the wedding day itself. For myself and many other planners, month-of and day-of coordination are interchangeable terms. A venue coordinator is a person who works for the venue where the wedding will take place. They are responsible for ensuring that the venue operates smoothly and that everything is in order before, during, and after the wedding. A venue coordinator's primary focus is on the logistics of the venue, and they are responsible for making sure that everything is in place before the wedding party arrives. This includes setting up chairs and tables, ensuring that the lighting is appropriate, and making sure that the temperature is comfortable.
Managing Stress, Anxiety, and Overwhelm while Wedding Planning
Maintaining positive mental health while wedding planning is crucial for ensuring that the planning process is enjoyable and fulfilling and that the wedding day is a happy and memorable experience. When you are feeling stressed, anxious, or overwhelmed, it can be difficult to enjoy the planning process and make decisions that align with your values and vision for the day. Additionally, stress and anxiety can take a toll on your physical and mental well-being, which can affect your ability to enjoy the wedding day and your future life together.
Wedding Planner vs. Wedding Coordinator
Weddings are one of the most important events in a person's life, and planning a wedding can be a daunting and stressful task. This is where wedding coordinators and wedding planners come in, to help make your special day run smoothly and without any obstacles getting in the way. However, many people tend to confuse the two terms, so it is important to understand the difference between a wedding coordinator and a wedding planner.
Is a Micro Wedding for You?
A micro wedding is a small, intimate affair made up of 50 guests or less.

The average micro wedding costs anywhere from $1,500 to $10,000, depending on what the couple desires for their intimate celebration.
What is a Wedding Coach?
A Wedding Coach is a life coach who specializes in essentially all things “wedding”. A Wedding Coach is someone who is solely focused on supporting the client - the bride, the groom, or both, depending on the contract. A Wedding Coach can help you navigate difficult family relationships, create wedding timelines, meet those deadlines consistently, will teach new tools and skills around healthy communication, stress, and effectively managing overwhelm, while regularly checking in on the client (most often the bride), to ensure she is feeling supported, successful, and enjoying the wedding planning process rather than dreading it or allowing stress and overwhelm to create a toxic mindset about wedding planning.
