An idea for your first wedding dance??
This definitely takes guts - and a lot of prior planning! But, it is SO fun to watch!

As couples begin thinking about their wedding, they are often confused as to how much to spend, where to obtain specialized services, and how to choose vendors. These worries often mount as quickly as the cost of the wedding. After the euphoria wears off and the reality settles in, it's shocking to discover how much preparation is involved. Couples are faced with decisions about everything from invitation wording to planning their honeymoon; often find they want experienced professional help.
Not long ago, a wedding coordinator was thought of as a luxury, only used by the wealthy. Now a coordinator is essential to the well planned affair. It is no longer "trendy" to engage a coordinator. Being experienced in negotiating contracts with caterers, florists, photographers, and other suppliers, the coordinator saves valuable time and money. The coordinator can take advantage of discounts not available to private parties and avoid costly mistakes, while turning your dreams into reality.
The average wedding can take more than two hundred fifty hours just to plan. With today's hectic lifestyles, you may not have time to compare all the options, making sure you get the best deal, and make sure all the details are in place.
Wedding coordinators are not here to make decisions for you, but to guide and assist you in making informed decisions. Their training, knowledge, and experience will turn your dreams and expectations into reality. They want you to host a beautiful and distinctive event which you can enjoy.
A wedding coordinator will save you time and enable you to get the most for your money! A wedding coordinator can serve in many other capacities. They can act as the family counselor for apprehensive brides and the mothers, a wedding coordinator can become as close as your best friend during your planning.
How do you know you're hiring the right coordinator? Trust is important in any relationship. You should feel completely comfortable with the coordinator and feel assured that he or she completely understands what your needs are. Your personalities should match. It's important to find out how long the coordinator has been in business.
How Do Wedding Coordinators Charge for Services?
Wedding coordination fees vary greatly from coordinator to coordinator.
Here are some examples:

Home-Sweet-Home Reception
If you're lucky and you, or someone you know has a house and yard big enough to accommodate your reception, you could be in luck! A place that's filled with memories is fabulous when filled with friends and family on your wedding day.
If you and your groom aren't much for fluff and fuss, a backyard reception might be a safe bet, because these receptions are much less formal. They can also be much less expensive - you won't be tied down with including typical wedding trimmings or adhering to a formal dress code.
Just be clear: Home reception does not equal backyard barbecue. The last thing you want to do is make your parents and other family members sweat in the kitchen all week long before your wedding, preparing food for the reception.. If you're having more than fifty guests, hire a professional caterer.
