When the Unexpected Happens: Why Hiring a Day-of Wedding Coordinator Matters

Every wedding comes with unexpected moments. For Sefrah & Ayo, the curveball arrived in the form of a no-show gele (head wrap) artist, a major issue when you’re coordinating traditional attire for a bride and nine bridesmaids.

Without alarming the bride, we immediately reached out to a trusted vendor, who arrived at the hotel within 30 minutes. The bride was relieved and grateful that the situation had been handled quickly and calmly.

Our new vendor worked quickly and skillfully, tying gorgeous geles for the entire bridal party. Everyone looked incredible, and the celebration moved forward without delay.

This is exactly what a professional day-of wedding coordinator is trained to do. They handle the chaos so you don’t have to. Don’t wait until something goes wrong. Book your day-of coordination call and let us protect your peace on your wedding day.
