works on the day of the event to make sure that happens.
* Month-of coordinator. A month-of coordinator works with
you for a prescribed amount of time, typically for four to eight
weeks before the wedding. So, you'd find and negotiate with
vendors, locate a venue, plan a menu and so forth, leaving the
coordinator to step in and handle any last-minute problems or
overlooked details that pop up close to the wedding day. The
coordinator also would be on hand the day of the wedding.
* Event manager. An event manager also typically comes on
board later in the planning process to do things like review final
contracts with vendors, schedule and run a final venue walk
through, take care of last minute details and manage the rehearsal,
wedding day and any other wedding events.

* Stylist. Some people hire a stylist in addition to a planner.
A stylist pays attention to every detail of the event, focusing on
design and visuals and making sure that everything is perfect.

Merida Alexander, owner of Philadelphia-area Events by Merida,
urged those planning a wedding to at least hire a day-of-planner
to manage details on the day of the wedding.
"Even if you don't need a full-service planner, please have a
day-of coordinator so you and your family can be present and
have fun on your wedding day," Alexander said. "They'll help
you take care of all the little details and help you when things go
wrong. Remember that you don't get a do-over."
Planning a wedding on a budget
Planning a big, fancy wedding can be exciting and great fun,
but not if you're stressed out about every dollar you're spending
and not sure how you'll pay your rent, much less come up with
money for a dress, flowers and all the other wedding essentials.
It's no secret that medical school is expensive, and many students,
residents and young doctors have very significant student debt.
With the average cost of a wedding at more than $35,000 you
need to decide what makes sense for you and what you can afford.
Don't be pressured into spending more than is reasonable for you.
It will only prove to be stressful and put you even further into debt.
