What you need to know about Event & Wedding Planners

December 16th, 2009

Congratulations!  You have dreamed of this day most of your life, and now that it is here. . . where do you start?  A Wedding Planner can help ease your stress and help direct you toward an organized event.  They offer the contacts needed to cut out the laboring hours of research for the perfect venue, photographer, florist, cake designer, transportation, music, guest accommodations, and of course all essentials in between.  They help you establish a budget and stay on task.  Each bride has her area she wishes to shine, and a planner can help determine the most important parts of your event and those areas of concentration.

Most venues do provide a Wedding Planner or Coordinator, but are usually responsible for the details behind the scenes.  Be specific as to their responsibilities and yours.  Wedding Planners can play as large or small a role as you need to create that special day.  Premium packages are available to help the Bride and her family with all decisions, as well as set up appointments, help with color and decor and all functions leading up to your Big Day.  Or. . . they can help later on in the planning process with the few tough decisions, and these are not the same for all brides.  Last but not least . . . a planner can help coordinate the day of the wedding.

Most brides believe their family or best friends can help coordinate their wedding day, and they can.  Unfortunately, with your mother or best friend concentrating on one part of the ceremony or reception, they miss out on some of the most precious memories they will ever cherish.  Planners will help coordinate your day to confirm so that no details will be over looked, vendors are on schedule and set up as planned, attend to your guests, and keep you on task for a stress free day.  A Wedding Planner can guarantee your friends and family the memories they have been waiting years to share.

Did you know that 8 out 10 women are wearing the wrong bra size–you may be one of them.  Make sure you visit your bra specialist and get fitted before the big day.

“A Day in the Mountains” Bridal Event at R Ranch

September 3rd, 2009

Unique Grand Exits

August 11th, 2009

Best Wedding Exits!!!!!!

Make the departure all about you! It seems that the today’s couples are looking for that something extra to make their wedding unique. One of the areas that are changing is how we leave the reception. Traditions of elegant limousines are being replaced with unusual rides that bring out the couple’s personality. Use your imagination and be creative. Many people are using vintage cars but you are not limited to cars alone.

You can exit using a tractor for a farm wedding.

Gwinnett Historic Courthouse Bridal Show

July 5th, 2009

blog-copy-copy1

The show was a success! Congratulations to Dawn at the Gwinnett Historic Courthouse. She has just recently started her job several months ago and this was her first Bridal show!! I wanted to share some pictures of my favorite friends I have met through My Bella Weddings Guide. Karen and Laurens of Laurens Floral Art at It’s Finest were there with many beautiful arrangements that decorated the venue. I have personally seen how they add special details in all their designs. They are very friendly and talented and each bouquet or arrangement is a work of art! John and Denise Bambach owners of Peterbrooke Chocolatier treated everyone with many samples. Their booth was very popular. Everyone loves chocolate! I took a picture of a little girl as she showed me the chocolate fountain she wanted in her home. I never thought about that but what a brilliant idea! Tonya of La Belle Weddings and Chiavari Chairs Atlanta was there displaying her beautiful arrangements, Chiavari Chairs, invitations and favors.
They offer so many items you need to stop by their beautiful store. They say they have everything but the dress and I believe it! These sisters have an eye for helping the bride put a personal touch on your wedding.
I had a wonderful day at the Bridal show and making sure each bride received their copy of My Bella Weddings Guide. It was also good to see so many happy vendors who truly love their job!
Wishing everyone much success and happiness…….
