    Hey Bees!

    My wedding is 4 weeks away(yay!)- I was wondering for those of you who had planners, how did you get them all the stuff for your ceremony/reception? I did a lot of DIY stuff, and have a ton of stuff to give to my planner so she can set everything up.

    Did you give it to them a few days ahead of time, the day of?

    Did they know where to put/set up stuff?

    I'm getting nervous lol, I'm kinda a control freak and I just want everything to go smoothly.

    We plan on getting her to pick up some stuff at our apartment.... But also asking our brothers and aunts and uncles to bring stuff to the venue about 5 hours before the wedding.

    I brought all my stuff to our coordinator (just the venue's wedding coordinator, we didnt have a wedding planner or anything) on the day before the wedding (in between the bridal luncheon and the rehearsal). I drew diagrams and stuff for anything that wasn't obvious where it should go or how it should be set up. Our venue actually let me set up our candy buffet that afternoon and just left it there until the next day.

    The wedding coordinator at our venue had told us she would do all the set-up, etc., so I knew she would take care of it. I think that isn't part of the venue's job at some venues, but we were able to count on her to get everything done the day of.
