{ Wedding Coordinators: What do they do? Why do you need one? }



What exactly do our wedding coordinators do? Great question! Each and every client we have is different. This means that each client has different needs and requires different things from our coordinators. Some clients only want the day of coordination package while others want full service wedding coordination. At Soirees Southern Events we offer both.



Full Service Event Coordination:


Planning a wedding is not an easy task. Even the simplest of weddings requires hours of planning which can quickly become overwhelming. Sometimes the stress of the planning can overshadow the joy of the engagement. Hiring a wedding coordinator is a perfect way to help relieve some of that stress! At Soirees Southern Events we offer full service event coordination and will be alongside you every step of the way. An integral element to our full service planning and design package offers a custom design experience, which includes the concept design with color palettes, layouts and pictures of specific elements. This allows us to clearly communicate the expectations of every detail. What else does our full service wedding coordination include?
