Frequently Asked Questions About Wedding Coordination

A venue coordinator is a great resource, but their responsibilities are very different from those of an independent wedding coordinator.

Venue Coordinator:

Their priority is the venue. They focus on:

  • Venue setup and staff
  • Catering or banquet logistics
  • Ensuring venue rules and timelines are followed

They handle anything related to the space itself, but not the full wedding experience.


Your Wedding Coordinator:

Our priority is you. We handle:

  • A full wedding-day timeline for all vendors
  • Ceremony coordination and rehearsal
  • Managing décor, details, and wedding party needs
  • Troubleshooting anything that comes up, so you can enjoy the day stress free


Why it matters?

A venue coordinator makes sure the venue runs smoothly.
Your own coordinator makes sure your whole day runs smoothly.


You should book a wedding coordinator about 9-12 months out in advance. Ideally, after securing your venue and solidifying your wedding date. We tend to book out our wedding coordination services about 1 year in advance. 


Our Full Wedding Coordination Package is designed for couples who want to feel completely supported, confident, and stress-free leading up to and on their wedding day. We are not just "day of" coordinators. We work with you beginning months in advance to prepare for your wedding day. We believe in a collaborative, team-centered approach and work closely with your entire vendor team to bring your vision to life with ease and joy.

Here’s what you can expect when you book with us:

  • Initial meet & greet before booking to learn about your love story, your vision, and how we can best serve you
  • Personalized welcome packet outlining our process, timelines, and planning tips
  • Three detailed planning meetings (4 months, 2 months, and 1 month out)
  • Unlimited communication—call, text, or email anytime
  • Collect and review vendor contracts
  • A fully customized wedding day timeline and vendor contact sheet
  • Rehearsal coordination alongside your officiant
  • Full décor setup and teardown of all your personal decor items 
  • Vendor management before and during the wedding day
  • Rehearsal, ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception coordination
  • Wedding party assistance throughout the day
  • Timeline and flow management to keep everything running smoothly
  • Expert problem-solving for any unexpected issues
  • Up to 14 hours of on-site coverage 


Your lead coordinator will be Lindsay, owner of Homemade Happiness by Lindsay. With a Bachelor’s in Corporate Communication and a Master’s in Business Management, Lindsay brings expert organization, clear communication, and calm problem-solving to every wedding. As a COVID-19 pandemic bride herself, she knows firsthand how to handle unexpected challenges with grace and confidence. Known for her outgoing personality and her loud laugh, clients often joke that “you’ll hear her laugh before you see her—and it’s guaranteed to make you feel more at ease.”


In most cases, her husband Geoff will join on-site as an assistant coordinator. Geoff holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Communication and works in the financial services industry — bringing exceptional client care skills, attention to detail, and a steady, supportive presence. 


Together, they form a professional and caring team that is dedicated to making every wedding day seamless, joyful, and stress-free. 


Even though your wedding day may be perfectly planned, unexpected issues can still arise. In these cases, we are fully prepared and approach them with calmness, confidence, and professionalism. If something unexpected occurs, we discreetly assess the situation, collaborate with the appropriate vendors, and implement a thoughtful solution—ensuring the matter is handled swiftly and without disruption to your wedding day. Our priority is to protect your wedding day, so you can remain present, relaxed, and live in the moment. 


Yes! Our booking process begins when we receive your inquiry. We’ll provide detailed information via email about our services, packages, and what to expect, so you have a clear understanding before moving forward.


Next, we schedule a free consultation—either by phone or video chat, so we can get to know each other, hear about your vision, and answer any questions you have. This consultation is all about making sure we are a mutual fit, ensuring that our style, approach, and personality are aligned with your needs. We want every couple we work with to feel completely comfortable and excited to have us by their side on their wedding day.


We charge a flat fee of $2,100 for our full wedding coordination services. This includes all work beginning 4 months before your wedding, your rehearsal, and up to 14 hours of on-site coverage on your wedding day. 


Please note that additional fees may apply for items such as travel, additional venue visits, backdrop rentals, or other add-ons. 


For our wedding coordination services, we offer a simple two-step payment plan. 


When you sign your contract, a 30% deposit of the total is required to secure your wedding date. The remaining 70% balance is due 30 days prior to your wedding day.


All payments are conveniently made via invoice sent directly to your email.


Signing a contract is an important step for both you and your wedding coordinator. Just like every other professional vendor—photographers, florists, caterers—a contract protects both parties by clearly outlining the scope of services, payment terms, and expectations.


At Homemade Happiness by Lindsay, the contract ensures that your wedding coordination services are clearly defined, your date is secured, and both you and your coordinator have a mutual understanding of responsibilities. It’s a standard practice in the wedding industry that gives you confidence, clarity, and peace of mind as you plan your special day.


Please begin by sending us an inquiry through our website. The booking inquiry form is located at the top of our website.


We’ll respond to you as quickly as we can with detailed information about our services, packages, and what to expect. From there, we move forward with scheduling a free consultation via phone or video chat to get to know each other, hear about your wedding vision, and answer any questions you have.


Our goal is to always make the process easy, transparent, and stress-free—so all you have to do is relax and enjoy the journey to your wedding day.
