Why a DJ cannot replace a Wedding Planner

A DJ company will tell you, "We will plan your day and make sure everything runs smoothly." Yes, a DJ can plan out your reception timeline to help get the announcements, first dance and cake cutting ceremony accomplished. However, your DJ will not know who to call if the centerpieces are the wrong style or if the wedding party is running late. He/she won't be able to contact a couture wedding gown alterations professional if a bridesmaid's zipper is broken and ripped from the dress. Your DJ will not know the details of the dinner that is served and whether the timing is correct or the cake is to be served as dessert or sent home in cake boxes. Only a Professional Wedding Coordinator will know about every aspect of your Reception. After working with you for one year or several months before the wedding day, your Wedding Planner knows the names of every family member and the wedding party, who will be where and at what time, and will have every nuance of your event recorded with information on each and every vendor involved in your Reception on the spot. Hiring a wedding planner is an essential element of a well-planned event.

"She's on top of her game... Kathy is without a doubt a consummate professional. I've worked with her at many events and admired her ability to get what she wants without taking from others. She knows how to keep the pros at events working in tandem for the benefit of everyone involved. I always know if it's a referral from Kathy that it will be a nice event to be a part of. She's thorough and wants nothing but the best for her clients and the professional vendors she works with."
