Planning your wedding is exciting, but it also places you in a position most couples have never been in before. You’re reviewing contracts you didn’t write, building timelines you’ve never made, and making decisions that all connect in ways that aren’t always obvious yet.

We often meet couples who are planning independently and doing a wonderful job researching and organizing. What they’re missing isn’t effort, it’s perspective. Weddings are full of small logistical details that seem minor early on but can create significant stress or unexpected costs later.

That’s exactly why we’ve opened our hourly wedding consultations to all couples, even if you’re not currently an Etc. Coordinators client.

How Hourly Wedding Consultations Can Save You Costly Mistakes

An hourly consultation is designed to give you access to a professional coordinator at the moment you need guidance most. During this time, I will walk through your questions with you and review the areas couples commonly feel uncertain about: vendor contracts, timing between events, layout flow, and overall day-of logistics. Many couples bring their contracts to the call, and together we identify language, restrictions, or requirements that could otherwise be overlooked.

Often, the most expensive wedding mistakes don’t come from big decisions, they come from small assumptions. A ceremony start time that doesn’t allow for transportation. A rental delivery window that conflicts with venue access. Overtime fees hidden in a vendor agreement. A photo schedule that unintentionally removes you from your own reception.

Because we’ve coordinated hundreds of weddings, we’re able to see how each decision connects to the next. In one conversation, couples gain clarity on what truly matters, what can be simplified, and what is worth investing in. More importantly, you gain confidence. Instead of wondering if you missed something, you can move forward knowing your plans are sound.

These consultations are especially helpful during the early stages of planning, when decisions carry the most weight, but they’re equally valuable if you’re midway through planning and simply want reassurance that everything will run smoothly.

Our goal isn’t to take over your planning. It’s to support you so you can continue planning with intention and peace of mind. If you’d like a calm, experienced perspective on your plans, you can schedule a consultation directly here!
