Event Coordination

There are some great wedding planners and coordinators in the area and we work with all most of them on a regular basis. We added wedding coordination services to our portfolio of professional services so we could keep everything "in house".  This also makes it MUCH more affordable for you and accomplishes the same goal of providing clients with complete services needed to make their wedding day flow smoothly.

​

There is a huge benefit when the coordinator and the DJ work together on a regular basis.  Our coordinators have not only worked with all the DJs in the Black Tie Entertainment family, but we share the same online planning tools and quality controls that cannot be duplicated.
