The Weddingbee Classifieds DOC
August 22nd, 2008 @ 12:12 pm by Mrs. Avocado
I emailed all of the Seattle Day of Coordinators (also known as DOC’s) that I could find contact information for, and then did research on all of them. After creating a tentative budget and setting my priorities, I realized that we couldn’t afford to spend $1000 on a DOC. I had resolved that I would have to figure out everything by myself and probably have to fix some disasters on the wedding day.
Then the Weddingbee classifieds stepped in and changed everything. Way back when I was a subscriber and not a Bee, I was scrolling through some posts and saw an ad for a Seattle DOC. Her price was so low that I was skeptical at first, but this is her first year in business and she is attempting to get started. Since this is a fairly normal thing to do (and exactly what I would do if I were attempting to start my own wedding coordination business), I decided to give her a call and see how we clicked over the phone.
The phone call went well, she was willing to do the things that we really needed, and I made a split-second decision to go for it! Mr. Avocado is supportive and thinks it’s a great idea. It’s so nice when he backs up my wedding decisions. I hope to give you all a positive review of her services come mid-October!
Please, share your Weddingbee Classified success stories!

I answered the same ad and will be using her as my DOC!
I had a first meeting with her and walked away happy. She seems very calm, confident, and easy-going…exactly the type of person I need around in charge of the little details. She asked good questions and I saw she took good notes…so far I consider this a Weddingbee Classified success story 
I got my veil from WB Classifieds! It matches my dress perfectly too. What a great deal.
I met my planner on WB too!
@chicagoseattle: Hi there! Its so weird to see my little business mentioned on Weddingbee! My heart did a little jig!
I don’t recognize you by your screen name, although I have my suspicions about who you are. Email me so the mystery can be solved!

About Me: Somehow this little farm girl found herself a genuine Pole to fall in love and eventually move away to Poland with. I am an LDS bride attempting to plan a private religious ceremony, ring ceremony, seated reception for 100, and an open house while coordinating for guests flying in from across the United States and as far away as Poland. I try to avoid fads, excess waste, and saturated fat. I strongly endorse photography, DDR, calorie counting, rss feeds, cooking, and utilizing your resources.
Are you by chance using Belle Nuit Events?
I found Christine as well and things are going great so far!
