Question 1

WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HIRING A WEDDING PLANNER AND HAVING A VENUE COORDINATOR ON THE DAY-OF?

Accepted Answer

Think of a wedding planner as your go-to bestie who has your back throughout the entire process. The venue coordinator is responsible for managing the venue details day-of. They should be unlocking the doors, turning on the lights, making sure the venue is clean and stocked. As planners, we do so much more from the moment you book until the wedding day. We take on all vendor communication with your all-star team and distribute the timeline, layouts, and all further details between vendors. Think of us as your eyes and ears on the ground all day long behind the scenes so you (and mom!) don’t have to worry about a thing.

Question 2

WHO WILL BE THERE THE DAY OF MY WEDDING?

Accepted Answer

For each of our packages, you will have the lead planner + an assistant. If your ceremony and reception are in two different places OR if your guest count is over 150 people, we will add on more assistants as needed at a flat rate price.

Question 3

DO I HAVE TO HAVE A VENUE AND DATE CHOSEN BEFORE I BOOK A WEDDING PLANNER?

Accepted Answer

Not at all! We love helping guide you through the venue search process. Our Full Planning package includes customized venue lists and we will reach out to each one you’re interested in to make sure it fits within your budget and get tours set up! If you’re booking our Wedding Management or Design + Coordination packages, we will still help you by giving you advice for budgeting and sending over venue lists to get you started on your search. We’re here for you every step of the way!

Question 4

DO YOU HAVE INSURANCE?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Our liability insurance policy covers us anywhere we travel and we can provide copies of it for your venue. Bonus! We will request insurance certificates from each of your vendors and send them directly to your venue so you don’t even have to think about it.

Question 5

WHERE DO YOU PLAN EVENTS? DO YOU TRAVEL?

Accepted Answer

While Lucky Day Events Co. started in Southern California in 2015, it expanded to North Carolina in 2018 when Chelsea moved for love! We are still headquartered in both states and serve all of North Carolina and all of Southern California. That said, we love to travel and explore new places! We’ve done weddings in Northern California, Charleston, SC, Savannah, GA, Wyoming and Sedona, AZ! We love to add fun new cities to our list! We will custom quote the travel based on hotel stay and gas or airline fees to make sure you’re getting the lowest possible rate.

Question 6

I HAVE A WEDDING PINTEREST BOARD, BUT WHERE DO I GO FROM HERE?

Accepted Answer

Great question! Our Design + Coordination and Full Planning packages are where we really get hands on in the wedding designs. We start with a Style Quiz to get to know more details about you two as a couple. We then create a custom moodboard, followed by an intricate design plan. This design comes to life at the mockup meeting with your rentals and florist. We work alongside you to bring your wedding dreams to life. Our Wedding Management package has the option for a tabletop design add-on, but we can provide general design direction for any package!
