Im kinda thinking of having a DOC, but I'm not to sure. Is it really helpful to have one? Or will I be ok without one? I'm sure its extremely helpful but what do you girls think? I want some opinions on girls have that used it and others that have not. Thank you so much!

    I am pretty sure any woman should have a DOC once she has started menstruating.

    I didn't, kinda wished I did.  It would have helped with timing, execution, the little stuff.  It certainly didn't ruin my day w/o, but looking back, yeah.  It would have been helpful.

    Our church provided one.  She was a PITA.  For example, she was trying to line us up for the processional and the groom's family wasn't even there yet b/c the bus got lost.  "It's 3:05! It's 3:05!"  I finally had to say "Look, we have the church until 5.  It's a half hour ceremony.  We are not starting without half the guests, including the mother and father of the groom. Relax and don't come back in here until all the guests are seated." A hired pro would probably be better.

    I had a wedding planner and wouldn't have traded her for anything. Our wedding was totally stress free because we didn't have to worry about anything. For my brother's wedding we were running around all day and it wasn't so smooth. I'm sure it would depend on who you hire, though.

    I asked a busybody friend of mine to sort of oversee things.  We kept stuff pretty free and loose, so she didn't have much.  But she did help direct people who seemed lost and started the clean-up process at the end of the night.  She herded a super drunk friend to the proper cabin as well.  It was probably nothing I couldn't have dealt with myself, but I know it made her happy to be involved and I didn't have to give anything a second thought.

    I'm sure it would depend on who you hire, though.Exactly.  My venue provided one who was a waste of space.  The man we made all our plans with was amazing, and we hadn't met the DOC until the day of the wedding.  He didn't do anything put try to boss us around to keep on "schedule" (we never had a schedule, as we had the reception hall all night and most guests were staying over), and the few things he should have done were neglected (which is why some of my favorite personal items were thrown out during clean-up).At the end of the night, we split his intended tip between the photographer and the DJ, because they were so excellent.
