It has been stressing me out to think about who is going to set up the reception hall, take care of vendors, light candles, etc and I have thought about a day of coordinator but am not sure if it is within our budget.
I also am going back and forth on having a DJ. Our reception is a Sunday afternoon, there won't be alcohol and we have no need for fancy lights, mixing, or a club atmosphere. However, I do want someone to MC and tell people when to get in line for food, announce dances, cake cutting, and put on certain songs for said events. It just seems silly to me to pay so much for a DJ when I could take care of most of the actual music and sound system myself.( I also couldnt really pick out a family member or friend I would feel comfortable doing it)
Soooo I had a fleeting thought that possibly a DOC could assume this role as well as the traditional set up/ clean up. I need opinions on this though. Is this too much to put on a DOC? Am I overlooking any important details?
Any recs for a DOC that seems outgoing and personable enough to take on that extra role? (That also is reasonably priced). Thanks!
