Search for a day-of coordinator in Edwardsville and the results are directory pages listing St. Louis vendors under an Edwardsville headline. Events By Klay is the Illinois-side answer: Klea lives one town over in Glen Carbon and has coordinated weddings at the venues on your shortlist, from SIUE Gardens to The Ink House, plus a 300-guest celebration up the road in Alton.
Local matters on the day. When the rehearsal moves an hour or a vendor needs a second trip, your coordinator is eight minutes away, not across the river.
What’s included
Two months
of real work
01The final stretch
Starting two months out: your final timeline built and managed, every vendor confirmed, contracts reviewed. “Day-of” undersells it, and that’s the point.
02The rehearsal
Up to two hours of rehearsal coordination, so the processional, the readings, and the exits run themselves when it counts.
03The day
Setup supervised, décor placed, vendors managed, transitions cued, problems handled before they reach you. You attend your wedding. Klea works it.
Engagements run $450 to $2,500 by scope, and most couples invest $1,600 to $2,500 for full coordination. The complete breakdown lives on the services page. For context, Wedistry’s 2025 cost guide puts national day-of coordination at $1,200 to $2,000.

“Every detail that we planned ran seamlessly thanks to her as well as making our venue absolutely gorgeous!!”

When should Edwardsville couples book day-of coordination?
