Frequently asked questions

How much does a day-of wedding coordinator cost in Grand Rapids?
Our Day of Coordination packages start at $1,500 for the Signature package and $2,100 for the All-Inclusive package. Unlike many coordinators, our packages don't have set hours — they're based on what your needs are.
When does "day-of" coordination actually start?
Well before the wedding day. Starting at booking, our team works closely with you on your timeline and vendor details, and you'll spend a minimum of three hours with us before the wedding itself — most couples spend more.
Who will we be working with?
April is the owner and lead coordinator, and she's who you'll meet with throughout planning. April personally leads most weddings, supported by an experienced team — many of whom are former brides of hers. You'll always be introduced to your lead coordinator before the day.
What areas do you serve?
We're based in Hudsonville, Michigan and coordinate weddings throughout Grand Rapids and all of West Michigan. We've also traveled out of state for our couples' destination events.

Every wedding is unique — both packages are fully customizable to your day.
