Open Positions

Assistant Wedding Coordinator

Contract / As-Needed | Weekend Availability Required

We are seeking a reliable, upbeat, and hard-working Assistant Wedding Coordinator to join our team and support weddings on event days. No prior wedding or event experience is required — we’re looking for the right personality and work ethic, not a résumé full of weddings.

This role is perfect for someone who thrives in fast-paced environments, enjoys helping others, and takes pride in being dependable and detail-oriented.

What You’ll Do

As an Assistant Wedding Coordinator, you’ll support the lead coordinator in making wedding days run smoothly. Responsibilities may include:

• Assisting with ceremony and reception setup

• Helping manage timelines and transitions throughout the day

• Working with vendors, wedding parties, and venue staff

• Running errands and handling last-minute needs

• Assisting with behind-the-scenes content capture for our social media

• Helping pack up personal items and décor at the end of the night

• Being a calm, positive presence behind the scenes

What We’re Looking For

You do not need wedding or event experience — training will be provided. You do need to be:

• Reliable & trustworthy — you show up prepared and on time

• Upbeat, positive attitude — you bring calm energy to hectic moments

• Hard worker — you tackle tasks enthusiastically and proactively

• Team player — you are supportive, adaptable, and work easily with others

• Strong attention to detail — you notice the little things, follow instructions carefully, and take pride in helping everything come together smoothly behind the scenes.

• Willingness to learn — event days can be unpredictable, and you’re ready to adapt with poise

• Customer service experience is a plus — whether in hospitality, retail, food service, or another people-focused role. Experience interacting with clients, families, or guests in a professional and friendly manner is especially valuable on wedding days.

Requirements

• Weekend availability (most weddings are Saturdays; some rehearsals on Friday evenings)

• Comfortable being on your feet for several hours

• Ability to lift, carry, and move décor (up to ~30 lbs)

• Strong verbal communication and a service-oriented mindset

• Reliable transportation to wedding venues across North Carolina. (Most events take place within a 60-mile radius of our base in Durham, NC. Weddings outside of this standard service area may be eligible for mileage or travel reimbursement.)
