Just a Day of Coordinator

Monique, on October 11, 2022 at 9:48 AM Posted in Planning 0 3

So I think I made a mistake... I asked one of my co workers to be my day of coordinator. I explained to her in detail what I needed her to do and that I only needed her the day of the wedding and not before. I just needed one simple thing from her and that was to never discuss my wedding planning business at work or with any other employee. I gave her time to think about it because I wanted her to be sure. She came back to me that Monday and said yes. Great! I started talking to her about some things like vendors and the wedding day timeline privately. I'm thinking everything was going well. Recently while talking with other co workers I spoke about how my fiancés family is stressing me with arrangements. Nothing I can't handle myself and it was just me talking to my co workers in conversations. I'm noticing now that every time I mention something she says, "You need to let your coordinator handle that" or "tell them to call me". It's like she's trying to let people know that she's the coordinator. My question is should I tell her I changed my mind or just talk to her again about what I asked for her not to do?


P.S. I don't discuss any plans with any other co workers. But if someone ask how's things are going, I'll answer them, but I don't give many details.

    If you explicitly told her not to discuss the fact that she's your coordinator, and she agreed to that, have a conversation about it. Remind her that you want to keep it under wraps. If she violates your trust again, tell her thank you but you're moving on.

    From your post it seems that you've asked her not to discuss details of your wedding with your colleagues... but you're the one doing that? Which is fine, because its your wedding. But if you're bringing it up around her and your colleagues what do you expect her to do? Sit silently in the corner?

    Unless you've asked her to keep it secret that you've asked her to coordinate (although I don't see why this would need to be a secret?) it doesn't sound to me like she's being unreasonable.

    If you found out that she was telling people stuff about your wedding when you weren't there, that would be different.

    If I'm talking about a family member stressing me about something about my wedding, her chiming in is not the problem. However, her telling people to have them call her as the coordinator is the problem. I did state that in my post that I asked her not to tell anyone that she was the coordinator.
