    Do you all mind sharing what is included in your services (i.e. run through of vendors, etc one month out from wedding, day of services - setup, during, takedown?, etc.). 

    @Soon2BSand
    - I am in the DC area too. I haven't started to look for my DOC but do you mind sharing the info on your DOC?  I will also send you a PM if you prefer if you decide to share.

    $350 Day of Coordination. 

    She's doing everything else I'm not able to do :) I wasn't planning on booking one. But decided last month that I really should get one. She offers a  whole lot more but I had already done most of the work. I just wanted someone to keep us on time and make things run smooth. But the main things she's doing

    -develop timelines
    -Rehearsal coordination
    -coordinate vendors
    -oversee wedding set up

    Mine includes everything from handling vendors to coordinating the rehearsal and ceremony. Being that I'm an OOT bride I HAD to have someone in town handle all the arrangements/meetings/etc because I wasn't about to fly back and forth to do these things.

    I'm pay $675

    We had our first meeting at the reception along with the event manager. She is amazing. She asked all kinds of questions that I would have never thought to ask.

    She officially starts working 2 weeks before the wedding and is the DOC.

    She is responsible for

    - making sure the vendors are set-up and take down
    - creating a timeline
    - organizing the rehearsal
    - make sure gifts are collected and placed in my friend's car
    - Will assist my MOH bustle my dress if needed
    -communicates with the DJ and Band to make sure they are playing the correct music at the right times
    - Basically making sure everything runs smoothly
    Wedding date July 7, 2012
