Wedding Coordinator Jobs description

Initially, wedding coordinators would handle mostly the booking of venues, caterers, florists, musicians, etc. Over the years, they have included other services and duties to their range. Style, coordination, and etiquette advice, custom decorating, and wedding day assistance are among the most common. Combining consulting with another wedding-related business, like floral arranging, retail sales, photography, and catering, wedding coordinators have made their involvement more intense and diverse.

Typically, wedding coordinators help brides by: selecting, or designing and fitting bridal attire and accessories; choosing wedding color(s) and mood; selecting and/or arranging flowers; selecting appropriate music for different parts of the wedding; selecting invitations/decorations/refreshments; deciding on the timing and schedule for the ceremony/reception; calming bridal stresses; and providing help with tradition and etiquette.

Wedding coordinators are versatile people. Candidates have to be adaptable, creative, responsible, and self-motivated. They must have imbibed in them the following important skills/traits: organization; communication (by phone, in writing, and in person); professionalism; empathy; insight; vision; style; logical and creative thought; excellent time management skills; enthusiasm; positive attitude; and a lot of energy.

Successful wedding coordinators have: a real love of weddings, fine fabrics, color, and style; a true philosophy of designing/advising for a specific couple; a good background of interest, knowledge, and experience in a wide range of subjects; an ability to envision items and settings that do not yet exist, and a natural eye for color, texture, harmony, and style; and a deep intuitive instinct for seeing and understanding the needs and desires of brides.
