FAQ

This Perfect Day have been helping couples deliver the day of their dreams for over 20 years. We are flexible to the needs of our clients and we have never been faced with a problem or challenge we couldn’t fix. This Perfect Day is a professional full time business and not an operation that simply runs on the side, as a hobby or after a course we took over the weekend. We have plans for most budgets and flexible payment options. Booking your wedding day with This Perfect Day is peace of mind that money can buy

A wedding coordinator’s job entails duties on the wedding day only where the couple has taken on the responsibility of all the planning in the lead up and just hands over a brief of the day to the coordinator. A wedding planner however is someone who has taken some/all of the planning responsibility off the couple in the lead up to the day and who may or may not be responsible for the successful execution of the event on the day itself as well

The largest event we have coordinated was actually a corporate event for 1500 guests over the course of 4 days and involved motorcycle stunt shows, water ballet on a public river, closing public streets and 3 successive fully scripted dinner/entertainment experiences. Our medium sized events are usually around 400 – 500 guests and our smaller events are around 100-150 (excluding elopements and smaller wedding dinners!)  Big or small, we love them all.

Not necessarily. Any consultations prior to booking are to understand what sort of service you need from us. We then allocate the best and appropriate event co-ordinator for your wedding. There will be an opportunity to say hello with your event co-ordinator in the lead up to the day. All of our packages including half day and above include a wedding planning consultation with the event planner who will be attending your wedding day. 

We are up front with all of our planning costs and you’ll find all the details on our Packages under the “Services” tab.

Usually it is only one event per event manager, unless on the rare occasion we have a morning wedding.

If you would prefer a quick meet and greet to say hello in person and talk through about how we can help you, our initial consultation is free. However if you prefer to discuss specific elements of your event, we can meet you for a consultation and these are charged at an hourly rate.

Many couples hire us purely for the peace of mind it brings. Not having to burden or rely on family and friends is a magical and liberating feeling! You can engage us at any stage of the planning process and we have a range of plans to suit your needs.

If we are at your event through the main course component of the evening, then a crew meal would be great appreciated. However if we depart before this time, then all we need is access to some water. Our shifts can be long and tiring and anything we can do to keep our energy level up is always helpful

We can assist with any event, ask for our help with anniversaries, baby showers, birthdays, corporate events, engagement parties, holiday parties, dinner parties, LGBT weddings, commitment ceremonies. We love to stay in touch with our alumni!

We also accept Visa and Mastercard

A wedding co-ordinator is someone you hire to be your advocate and represent your best interests. Your wedding planner at the venue represents the venue (and the venue’s best interest) and not you. They also have minimum involvement with planning the event and if anything are primarily involved in the food and beverage components and checking delivery and bump in and out movements of all vendors. They have very limited involvement outside the scope of this, especially regarding any other vendor who is involved in your event prior to the commencement time of the reception. This includes hair and make up artists, photographers, videographers and those involved at the ceremony if it’s not in the same location as the reception
