    Hey, savalove!  So, I was on a tight budget and wasn't gonna to use a planner or coordinator, but then got a tip for a DOC new to the Houston area and trying to build her porfolio.  She had an add on weddingbee and I responded, she worked my reception for FREE (well we gave her some $$ anyway) in exchange for a testemonial and some pictures for her website once I get them in.  I am so glad she was there, she really helped us keep things on track and would hunt down the folks we needed (finding the BM and MOH in time for the toasts, etc).  I don't think it would have run as smoothly AT ALL without her and can't believe I didn't find it a "must-have" since my venue didn't come with a coordinator already.  If you want to contact her just email me at UTerin03 at yahoo and I"ll send you her info.  She might still be doing the "free" trades...  On your other questions, we did the cake-cutting about 1.5 hrs from the time we did our grand exit, did the MOH & BM toasts about 30 mins after the cake cutting, immediate followed by bouquet toss, then garter toss, left us with about 30 mins of socializing time before we "took off".  HTH!

    My 2 FSIL are being the DOCs. I need them just for the reception set up part mainly. Our DJ and Cater have a time line to follow the order of things. If I need anything I will let my 2 FSIL know. I am on a pretty tight budget too.
