Wedding Day - Wedding Stress

Posted on November 13, 2011 at 5:00 PM Comments comments (0)

It is known for many brides to overly stress on their wedding day. Why? This is your day, and perfection is what you seek.

Tips to de stress the bride:

1. Create a check list the week before the wedding and check everything on the list two days prior to your wedding.

2. Have a spa day two days prior to your wedding. Get a massage, wraps but avoid any facials related to any dermal abrasions as your facial display may not return a glow the day of the wedding.

3. Meditate and or yoga every morning a week prior to the wedding. I recommend only meditation the morning of.

4. Hire a wedding planner to give all the stress to someone else.

I extend a stress free wedding day and beautiful ceremony to you.

Share With Your Groom

Now that you have hired a wedding planner, executed your glam wedding, you feel a huge relief. All contracts signed, dresses fitted, the chief has changed the menu to your specification.

Today you and your fiancé will meet with the wedding planner to discuss any loose ends, and what happens? Your fiancé does not agree to the menu and the venue he feels is too small. To increase the stress all members of his family are allergic to nuts which are the crust of the salmon and the filling of the steak. Unknown to you, the bride to be, your soon to be husband is allergic to strawberries and chocolate the icing and filling in the cake.

 Now what? Of course the menu has to be changed. Depending on the day of the wedding and refund policy the venue may or may not be relocated. If the reception venue is changed you must immediately mail out notifications to all guests, of course the wedding planner will assist with all changes and mail out.

Brides there are many fiancés who will say “baby just plan the wedding, it is your day, I love you.” I agree it is your day your fiancé has a major role in your day. This being said communicate with your husband to be on all phases of the wedding, color, menus, guests, finances.

In most weddings the groom to be will agree to his bride's decision, he wants you to be happy and be married to you.

Remember love, plan, communicate, love, plan and get married. Congratulations on your glam wedding.

Enchanted Love,

Is This Your Wedding?

Posted on October 24, 2011 at 8:40 PM Comments comments (0)

A wedding planner‘s goal is to plan the ultimate ceremony. The bride should know exactly what she wants. I know eyebrows are raised, what the bride wants? Many think the wedding planner should know and deliver.

This statement is partially true, however if the bride does not have an idea or clue what she wants for her wedding and all preparations and venues are rejected this rocks the Tips to glam your wedding:

Dream, dream and dream, create your vision of your wedding. This is your wedding, not your best friend, sister, or Mom. Dreaming and envisioning your wedding can take an hour or several days.

Do you have a theme? If so share it with your wedding planner.

What are your colors? Sometimes this phase can be difficult and it is not unusual for a bride to change colors several months into planning. I recommend take time on the colors there are other areas that will not change and to focus on. You can focus on the bridal party, venues, invitations, save the date invitations, guests, and much more until the color decision is made.

If you would like the wedding planner to glam your entire wedding great just have the following:

Theme, date, guest list, bridal party names and information of contact, and your budget. You will communicate on a set scheduled time with your wedding planner on all accomplishments.

Your glam wedding is in the making so sparkle bright!

Why a Wedding Planner?

Posted on October 21, 2011 at 7:30 PM Comments comments (0)

Before you hire a wedding planner, question yourself as to why? Be true to your reasons. A wedding planner has many roles, suggestions, and associates she can utilize in making your ceremony one specific to your dreams.

The bride must know exactly why she is hiring a wedding planner to begin your thought process begin by:

Dreaming- visually picture your dreams

Write down a list of things you want to perform yourself, of course it is okay if you want the planner to do it all.

Present this list to your wedding planner. With an overview of the list the planner can better plan your wedding.

Know your expectations, and which area of planning is frustrating.

Be certain you can relate and communicate to the wedding planner on all levels.

As a WPS (wedding personality specialist), it is a priority I know the personality of my brides to enable my suggestions to be receptive and display a picture of the bride. I must admit I am overwhelmed when I hear “AWWW” .

All brides deserve the optimum wedding of their dreams. Be aware most wedding planners have program packages to satisfy your needs in making your wedding a day forever memorable.

You are beautiful as your wedding will also be.

The Venue is Gone

Posted on October 11, 2011 at 5:15 PM Comments comments (0)

 

The reception venue is “paid in full”; you’ve contacted the florist after hours of search. The decoration is in the venue package, the colors are perfect. Thanks to good friends you now have a wonderful DJ and the string music group is fantastic. However the chief and menu offered was not exactly as you wanted and though usually not allowed the venue allowed you to choose a catering company.

Wow everything is going GREAT. Being excited with your accomplishments and following a schedule of contacting each vendor monthly it was no way an error could happen.

The receptionist at the venue called to report an error had occurred, the venue had double booked without knowledge on your wedding day for the same time of day and hours. An apology was given and an offer to change your date. How can you change your date, invitations are out, all arrangements with vendors are paid, who and how could this happen?

Your response was no, as anxiety increased inducing a migraine. The thought of locating a venue and contacting each guest within 10 days is elevating your heart rate. Your decision is get a refund, gather friends and anyone you are acquainted with to assist in a resolution. No, was the reply of the venue, no refund it is in the contract after 30 days no refund you can however change the date. You read the contract hurriedly and not its entirety prior to signing.

 A wedding planner reviews all vendor contracts, edit as need to protect the bride. At the stage in your planning hire a wedding planner. The planner will work diligently with you in locating a venue within 10 days to your satisfaction, contact your guests and decrease the tension and migraine but you must let the planner know what has occurred and specifically the assistance you require.

 For all DIY brides slow down on your reading of contracts, hire a wedding planner. You may only require assistance in one or maybe two areas this is your decision, unfortunates can and do occur.

I want you to enjoy your wedding, your reception, your day, it is all about YOU.
