How Month of Management Works with a Toronto Luxury Wedding Planner

Month of Management is one of the most valuable investments a couple can make when planning a Toronto wedding. While full planning and design may not be the right fit for every couple from a financial perspective, having a team managing the wedding is invaluable for all couples. At Events by Whim, this service kicks off eight weeks prior to your wedding. It is designed to refine your planning, strengthen your logistics, and ensure a luxury-level wedding day experience.

Although our formal coordination window begins at eight weeks, our couples receive full access to our planning platform and toolkit from the moment they book with us. This includes collaborative floor planning tools, guest list management, design and inspiration boards, a wedding website builder and online RSVP functionality. We have also created custom planning aids exclusively for Events by Whim couples that simplify decision making and help create a refined, elevated celebration.

What Is Month of Management?

Month of Management, also known as Month of Coordination or Day of Coordination, is the stage where a professional Toronto wedding planner steps in to finalise your planning and execute your wedding day. You have already booked your venue and vendors. Our job is to bring everything together, refine the remaining details and manage the entire celebration from start to finish.

At Events by Whim, Month of Management is delivered with a luxury service standard and a focus on clarity, communication and confidence. Stepping in only weeks before the wedding is challenging, so we have refined this service to allow for a seamless transition from your self-directed wedding planning to our full-service wedding management. We recognize that toward the end of wedding planning time is at a premium both for yourselves and for your vendors, so our role is to create a clear line of communication with all vendors, venues and VIPs, allowing all parties to relax on the wedding day knowing that an expert team is at the helm.

When Our Work Begins

Your active Month of Management support begins eight weeks before your wedding. During this time, our team meets with you, reviews all vendor information in our planning software, reviews your decisions, analyses logistics and begins building your master wedding timeline and floor plans.

Before the eight week mark, you have full use of our planning platform and tool suite. This lets you stay organised, track details and collaborate with us seamlessly once the coordination period begins.

Who Month of Management Is Best For

This service is designed for couples who:
• Want to complete the majority of their planning themselves but want assistance with design services
• Want a professional to refine details and manage logistics
• Prefer to step away from the stress of the final few weeks
• Want their wedding day to feel effortless and beautifully coordinated and styled
• Are planning fusion or culturally blended weddings that require precision and cultural understanding

Why This Service Matters

The final several weeks of wedding planning is when details accelerate and emotions heighten. Vendor questions increase, logistics become more complex and last minute decisions begin to pile up. A luxury Toronto wedding planner brings order to this period by managing communication, clarifying expectations and guiding the entire process with experience and calm.

With Events by Whim overseeing your timeline, logistics and wedding day execution, you are free to enjoy each moment without distraction.

Month of Management vs Day of Coordination

Many couples search for Day of Coordination in Toronto, but a true day of service does not exist. A seamless wedding cannot be executed without plenty of advance preparation. Month of Management replaces this misconception by offering professional planning support in the final eight weeks, ensuring your wedding day is calm, organised and expertly led.
