Wedding Planner Vs Wedding Coordinator

Whats The Difference Between A Wedding Planner And A Wedding Coordinator?

Wedding Planner
A professional Wedding Planner is your personal consultant, with a wide stemmed focus and can give you advice on all the details in curating your dream wedding - all wedding style and all wedding decor.

From your first meeting, your wedding planner helps to style all your wedding items based on your desired wedding (color) theme / concept. Your wedding planner will also help you search for the perfect venue and find great vendors who will fit within your planning budget and the concept of your wedding.

They act as the main liaising person with various parties involved in your wedding. Your wedding planner will help pull everything (e.g. venue decor, wedding gift, wedding cake, wedding day itinerary, wedding ceremony rehearsal, etc) together. He/She will ensure all the details are ready for your wedding day celebration.

The best part is, they plan weddings for a living... so there isn't a wedding problem they haven’t encountered before. Hence, they’ll know how to handle even the stickiest of situations, and keep you calm in the process.

Wedding Planning Companies in Singapore also provide packages to include the wedding coordination (Actual Day Wedding Coordinator) on your wedding day, so they can follow thru what has been planned on the very day of your big event (...continued below)



Wedding Coordinator (Day-Of-Wedding Coordinator)
A wedding coordinator is similar to a wedding planner, in that they help you organize and pull together your wedding details, but they may not handle quite as much as the traditional wedding planner would.

For example, a wedding planner may sit down with you from day one to help you dream up all the wedding colors, style, and decor theme and help you negotiate contracts and book vendors.. Vs a wedding coordinator who may only stick to finalizing all your vendor business AFTER you’ve already made the major decisions. Wedding coordinators will most likely handle contracted work primarily, but are not always limited to this only.

You will meet your Wedding Coordinator 1 to 2 months beforehand to fill them in on what to expect on the actual day.

Then come your wedding day, your wedding coordinator will over-see time management for ceremony, processional, recessional, cocktail, entrance, speech, dance, to prompt the emcee and vendors, troubleshoot and ensure quality control of set up, including personalized details and decor.

Your wedding coordinator is also in charge of handling all of your vendors and set-up on the day of your wedding, as well as any type of clean-up or post-wedding duties needed - so that you and your family members can just relax and enjoy the day.
