WEDDING DIRECTOR

Backed by her experience as a wardrobe stylist, Interior Designer, Wedding Planner and Director. Carolina Couture Columbia’s premier Designer Boutique and Bridal Salon. If you're getting married soon, but want to plan the ceremony and reception yourself, instead of a wedding planner, or have a wedding planner already, consider hiring a wedding director, who will make sure that everything involving your special day goes smoothly. A wedding director's role is different from that of a wedding planner, as she doesn't make decisions about the wedding and reception, instead coordinating the events to make you more at ease about the organization of your wedding.
