*NOTE: For Day-of-Event Direction Only Services, the bride will take the responsibility of preparing a timeline, confirming details and commitments of her vendors, and all other pre-wedding planning duties. The consultant will carry out the duties based upon the brides planning and preparations. In these instances where the consultant has no previous interaction with the vendors, the wedding coordinator is only as good as the information the bride provides.
