The Details – 4 weeks prior to your wedding, we will meet at the venue and have a front to back meeting to cover every single detail of your event day. We’ll go over everything from the linens to lighting, to sign-in and favors. Core Concepts will then create a detailed outline which includes all your remaining “to-do” list items. We will go over all currently booked vendors, cross off to-do’s regularly, until everything is in place to make your event day totally stress-free.
Coordination – we will coordinate with all your vendors & rentals. Things like venue contact, DJ or band, photographer and videographer, décor, cake, floral, etc. This includes all outside vendor arrivals, setup, staging, and breakdown scheduling.
