Why do some wedding planners not offer 'day-of' coordination? Tannya DeMeyer and Lindsay Brys from Simply Lovely Events are here to break down the difference between day-of coordination and full-service planning—and why it matters for your big day.
When it comes to wedding planning, there's much more than meets the eye. Tannya DeMeyer and Lindsay Brys from Simply Lovely Events join us to explain why they no longer offer 'day-of' coordination and how couples often misunderstand what this service entails. They discuss the challenges of stepping into a wedding with only a few weeks' notice, sharing how executing a couple's vision is challenging when there's minimal time to build trust and understand all the details.
Instead, Tannya and Lindsay emphasize the value of starting with a planner months in advance. They share how timelines, family dynamics, and overlooked details can create chaos if left unmanaged. Plus, they share their personal experiences managing unexpected wedding day surprises—from nearly toppling a floral arch to navigating awkward family tensions.
Throughout the episode, they offer practical advice for couples on communication, decision-making, and working with their planner to make the most of their services. Whether planning a small ceremony or a full-scale wedding, Tannya and Lindsay's insights will help you feel prepared and confident.
