LADY IN WAITING
Whether you hired a Wedding Planner or a Day of Coordinator, the Lady in Waiting gal, offers the peace of mind a bride personally needs on her wedding day. To the contrary of a Wedding Planner who’ focus on the wedding day is the wedding itself, the Lady in Waiting focuses on the Bride’s need to ensure the day runs smooth and that the bride is completely worry-free while she is getting ready. It’s an extra body (other than family and friends who are ultimately guests of the wedding) that is there to dedicate her undivided attention solely to the Bride. Whether is ensuring the bride has her phone all day to snapchat all those special moments while she is getting ready, or serving as a liaison between the family and the Wedding Planner, the Lady in Waiting is like having an extra Maid of Honor, that doesn’t need to get her hair done. The Lady in Waiting is an additional layer of help that can hold the Planner, Photographer and other vendors accountable, as well as assist with stylizing the room so that it can be “photo ready” for the your photographer, ensuring that the Bride and Bridal Party have eaten, and assist with all other important details that can go unnoticed given the natural “chaos” of the wedding day.
