The Role
What Does a Wedding Coordinator Do?
A wedding coordinator runs your wedding day from the first vendor arrival to the last box packed, so you never leave your own party to solve a problem. Here is what that looks like with Bash.
No. 1
Builds Your Master Timeline
Your coordinator maps every moment, from hair and makeup to the send-off, then shares the final timeline with every vendor so the whole day moves as one.
No. 2
Manages Every Vendor
Caterer running late? Flowers at the wrong door? Your coordinator makes the calls, checks arrivals, and keeps your phone silent all day.
No. 3
Runs Your Rehearsal
Processional order, where to stand, when to walk, how to exit. Your wedding party gets clear answers the night before, so the ceremony flows without a hitch.
No. 4
Sets Up Your Details
Centerpieces, place cards, signage, the guest book, the favors. Your personal touches get placed exactly the way you pictured them.
No. 5
Solves Problems Quietly
A missing boutonniere or a seating mix-up never reaches you. Your coordinator handles it behind the scenes while you stay in the moment.
No. 6
Closes Out the Night
Gifts secured, décor packed, nothing left behind. You leave with your people, and your coordinator locks down the rest.

Know The Difference
Wedding Planner vs. Wedding Coordinator: What’s the Difference?
A wedding planner works with you for months before the wedding, while a coordinator runs the wedding day itself. Most couples in Detroit end up wanting both, and at Bash they work as one team.
Before The Day
The Wedding Planner
Months out → wedding week
Your planner is your guide through every decision leading up to the wedding.
- Builds your plan, budget, and checklist
- Recommends trusted Metro Detroit vendors
- Keeps meetings, contracts, and details organized
- Shapes the timeline your whole day will follow
On The Day
The Day-Of Coordinator
Rehearsal → last dance
Your coordinator turns that plan into a smooth, on-time wedding day.
- Runs the rehearsal and cues the ceremony
- Manages every vendor arrival and setup
- Solves day-of problems before you hear about them
- Closes out the night and packs you up

The best part? They work together. With Bash, your planning support and your day-of coordination come from the same team, so nothing gets lost in a handoff. Pick planning only, day-of only, or the full journey below.

An Honest Gut Check
Do You Need a Wedding Coordinator?
You need a wedding coordinator if you want to be a guest at your own wedding instead of the person running it. If any of these sound like your day, a coordinator will earn their keep many times over.
Your venue gives you the room, but nobody on staff runs your timeline, vendors, or ceremony.
You have DIY details, like centerpieces, signage, or a dessert table, that someone has to set up and tear down.
Your mom, aunt, or maid of honor is currently the plan, and you would rather they enjoy the day too.
You booked five or more vendors who have never worked together before.
Your day spans more than one location, like a church ceremony and a separate reception hall.
You planned everything yourself and just want someone to execute it flawlessly while you relax.
Planned it all yourself? Perfect.
Plenty of couples come to us with the whole wedding planned and only need the day itself covered. That is exactly what our Journey Package handles: we take your plan, run your rehearsal, and execute the day while you live it.
Not sure which fit is right? Tell Kelly and the team about your day and we will point you to the smallest package that truly covers it.

The Bash Advantage
One Team Behind Your Whole Day
Most coordinators spend the wedding day herding strangers. Led by Kelly Schultz, our coordination team walks in already knowing the DJ, the photographer, the videographer, and the lighting crew, because they all work for the same team.
That means one shared timeline instead of six separate ones, no vendor finger-pointing, and a day that flows the way it was planned. Bundle coordination with any Bash service and watch the whole day click together.

Good Questions
Wedding Coordination Questions, Answered
What is a month of wedding coordinator?
A month of wedding coordinator steps in about 30 days before your wedding to finalize the timeline, confirm vendors, and run the day itself. Our Journey Package works this way: you plan, and we take the wheel for the final stretch and the wedding day.
Does the coordinator run our ceremony rehearsal?
Yes. Rehearsal coordination is included in the Journey and Ever After packages. We cover the processional, where everyone stands, readings, songs, the recessional, and timing, and we answer every question your wedding party has before the big day.
Can we add coordination to a Bash DJ or photography package?
Absolutely, and it is our favorite way to work. Add wedding coordination to any Bash package and your coordinator, DJ, photographer, and videographer all run on one shared timeline. Try the package builder on our pricing page to see your total instantly.
We already planned everything. Can you just handle the day?
Yes. That is the Journey Package. We take the plan you built, tighten the timeline, run your rehearsal, and execute the whole day, so you and your family get to be guests at your own wedding.
What areas do your wedding coordinators serve?
We coordinate weddings across Metro Detroit and Southeast Michigan, from downtown Detroit venues to barns, vineyards, and lakeside halls throughout the region. Planning a wedding a little farther out? Ask us. We travel.
When should we book wedding coordination?
As early as you can, because popular dates fill fast. Planning packages do the most good with 6 to 12 months of runway, while day-of coordination can come aboard later. If your date is close, reach out anyway and we will tell you honestly what we can do.
