Event Planning Vs. Event Coordinating

An easy example of this is the word "event" in which some people will interpret it to be a birthday party, business conference, wedding, sporting game , and the list goes on. These varying descriptions can be confusing in the event industry and so can job titles, such as "event planner" verse "event coordinator." What is it precisely that separates these two careers?
