Day of Wedding Coordinator

Did you have one and who did you use, were they good??  I live in Raleigh, having an east coast wedding in a large backyard on the water.  Need to have a day of coordinator so I don't drive myself crazy!  Thanks ladies!

    A coworker used A Joyful Occasion.  It cost her about $400 for all day coverage.

    I'm using Cara from A Southern Soiree, though she was definitely a splurge. ($1600 for weekend of coverage.) The reason I chose Cara was a) she was recommended by just about everyone, and b) for that price I got Cara + 2 assistants. With our large (and divorced) families and our wedding not at a traditional venue (family-friend's farm) I felt like I needed the extra help. Cara's Day-Of package includes unlimited email and phone contact, so any time I had a question, needed a vendor rec, etc. over the past year she was on it. It also includes several meetings and, as she puts it, "WHATEVER you need. Literally. On the weekend of."

    Anyway, I love her and I totally feel like she was worth the splurge. :)

    Depending on where you are on the coast, I used Meredith McSwain. She charged $300, but I feel like I should have paid her more because of everything ashe did.  She was just amazing and incredible!  My wedding would not have gone as smoothly as it did if I did not have her. I highly highly recommend her!

    She is based in Wilmington.  Her e-mail is themcswains@gmail.com.
