About The Day-of, LLC

The Day-of, LLC

Owner & Principal Event Lead

Hi, I’m Layla — founder of The Day-of, LLC. My love for this work started behind the scenes at private venues and country clubs, where I learned how events are built from the ground up — the vendor relationships, the floor plans, the timelines, the hundred small decisions that determine whether a wedding day runs smoothly or doesn’t. That experience eventually led me to the coordinator’s side, where I could bring that same operational foundation directly to couples. Having worked as both a venue-side events director and an independent coordinator, I understand what venues expect, how vendors operate, and where things fall apart.

I bring to your day a planner’s eye for the guest moments that matter, an operator’s instinct for what can quietly go sideways, and the discipline to have a plan for both. Most coordinators come from one side or the other—I work both, every week. That means I’m not just running your timeline; I’m reading the room, anticipating the hiccup before it lands, and protecting the moments you’ll actually remember.

In three words: Calm, Collaborative, Creative

    Calm and Ready in the Storm

    Layla was exactly what we were looking for as a couple that handled most of the planning ourselves. She helped us frame up our timeline and asked all the important questions we never would have thought of well ahead of time and gave fun suggestions/alternatives for our not-very-traditional wedding. Layla did a great job coordinating our vendors and making sure everyone knew what they had to do when. I felt so reassured by her calm presence guiding us throughout the day. I would recommend her to any couple looking for a solid coordinator!

    Hi Renata, Thank you kindly for sharing your experience! I enjoyed every second of getting to know both you and Will and of bringing together the elements you planned. I am happy to hear that you felt reassured throughout the day. All my best, Layla

    Made our day that much better

    Worth every penny. She kept the train on the tracks throughout our day. She was very attentive and kept a keen eye on all the details. Very easy to communicate and work with. She made our special day that much better!

    Thank you again! It was a pleasure to join you and Ale on your wedding journey. Warmly, Layla


Our services start 60 days before your wedding date. We begin by meeting with you to review your wedding and what has been planned. We then help tie it all together before creating your vendor-facing timeline for distribution and review.
We take on a limited number of weddings to ensure attention is given to your event. The exact number taken on will depend on the type of wedding and pre-coordination required.
A non-refundable 50% retainer of the total balance is due at the time of booking. For events booked within 30 days of the event date, a 65% retainer will be required to secure the date. The remaining balance is due two weeks before your event. Payment details and due dates are outlined in your contract.
When reviewing your wedding request, we consider your guest count, setup, and coordination needs. If we feel that an additional staff member is required, we will review this during our consultation to determine the best fit.
