Why Month-Of Coordination Might Be the Smartest Planning Decision You Make

Planning your own wedding? You don’t have to do it alone until the bitter end.

There’s a smart middle ground between full-service planning and going it solo, and it’s called Month-Of Coordination . also known as Wedding Management. It’s one of the most underrated services in the industry, and for the right couple, it’s a total game-changer.

What Is Month-Of Coordination?

Month-Of Coordination is ideal for couples who’ve already booked their venue, selected most of their vendors, and mapped out their vision but want professional support to finish strong and make the actual day stress-free.

This isn’t just “day-of help.” It's a real partnership that begins weeks before the wedding. We step in to confirm details, create timelines, manage communication, and run the day so you (and your family) don’t have to.

Who It’s For

  • You’ve handled the major decisions but want someone to make sure it all flows

  • You’re planning from another city or state and need local oversight

  • You’re organized, but want a trusted expert to take over during crunch time

  • Your venue provides a coordinator, but you know that’s not the same thing

What’s Included in Month-Of Coordination

At Curora Weddings, our Month-Of Coordination includes:

  • A planning kickoff call to get aligned on your vision and vendor team

  • A custom timeline for the final stretch of planning

  • Complete vendor outreach and confirmation starting 6 weeks out

  • A detailed wedding day schedule tailored to your team and priorities

  • Final venue walkthrough and layout assistance

  • Rehearsal coordination (yes, we’ll be there)

  • Full wedding day coverage with a lead planner and assistants

  • Real-time troubleshooting, communication, and guest flow management

You’ve put in the work. We make sure it all comes together the way you imagined.

Venue Coordinator vs. Month-Of Coordinator: What’s the Difference?

It’s a common misconception that a venue coordinator does the same thing as a wedding planner but their roles are actually very different.

A venue coordinator works for the venue. Their priority is making sure the space is ready, the lights are on, and dinner is served on time. They’re an important part of the team, but their scope is limited to the property itself.

A Month-Of Coordinator (that’s me) works for you. I’m responsible for your timeline, your vendors, your family, your details, and your guest experience — start to finish. I’m in touch with everyone, reviewing contracts, catching potential issues, and making sure the whole day flows smoothly. I also lead your rehearsal, oversee decor, and stay on-site from the beginning of setup to the end of the night.

We collaborate with your venue team, but we’re there to advocate for your full vision not just what happens within the venue’s walls.al experience.

Why It’s Worth It

You’ve invested time, energy, and resources into this day. You deserve to enjoy it.

Month-Of Coordination allows you to show up as the couple — not the coordinator. You get the peace of mind of a professional leading the final stretch while keeping your decisions at the center of it all.
