Your wedding day is one of the most important days of your life—and the right coordinator can make all the difference. But with so many options out there, how do you choose the perfect person to help bring your vision to life? At Bellar Events, we’ve helped couples across the U.S. (and beyond!) plan their dream days, so we know what to look for. Here’s your go-to checklist when picking your wedding coordinator:
1. A Great Listener
You want someone who really hears what you want, not someone who just nods and follows their own agenda. The best coordinators ask great questions, listen carefully, and offer suggestions that reflect your unique style and priorities.
2. Strong Organization Skills
From timelines to vendor communication to last-minute fixes, a wedding coordinator needs to be the ultimate multitasker. Ask how they stay organized—do they use checklists, spreadsheets, apps? The details matter!
3. Certified, Licensed & Insured
This one’s not just important—it’s non-negotiable. Make sure your coordinator is:
✅ Professionally trained or certified in event or wedding planning
✅ Legally registered as a business in their state
✅ Fully insured with general liability coverage
Why does this matter? Because if something goes wrong, you want to know you’re working with a professional who operates legally and responsibly. It also shows they're serious about their business and their clients' peace of mind.
4. Experience and Reviews
How many weddings have they coordinated? Do they specialize in weddings your size or style? Don’t be afraid to ask for testimonials or check out their online reviews. Happy couples are the best source of truth.
5. Calm Under Pressure
Weddings are full of moving parts, and sometimes things don’t go exactly as planned. Your coordinator should be someone who stays cool, calm, and collected—so you can, too.
6. A Solid Vendor Network
Great coordinators know great vendors. If you’re still searching for florists, DJs, or caterers, a well-connected coordinator can make your search so much easier.
7. Your Personal Vibe Check
This one’s big: you have to like them! You’ll be spending a lot of time together, and your coordinator will be with you on one of your most personal days. It’s okay to go with your gut.
At Bellar Events, we treat every wedding like it’s our own. We’re certified professionals, fully licensed, and insured—so you can feel confident knowing your special day is in the hands of experts. Whether you're planning in North East Ohio or somewhere across the globe, we’ll help you feel supported and excited every step of the way.
