WEDDINGS & EVENTS BY KIRSTIE ๐Ÿ’
Are you still undecided when it comes to booking a wedding planner? Is it worth the money? I could do it myself, can't I? Yes... you absolutely can! However, wedding planners bring extensive knowledge and experience to the table, and we know the industry, vendors, and potential pitfalls, which helps in making informed decisions. My experience will ensure your wedding day runs smoothly and leaves you feeling relaxed and excited! What bride wants to be running around feeling confused and stressed on the day of their wedding? NO BRIDE! It's time to book Weddings & Events by Kirstie now and hand over all of that stress and confusion to me. It's your time to relax and enjoy this process! After all... you deserve it ๐Ÿฅฐ

FEEDBACK FRIDAY! ๐Ÿ˜
When a clients wedding is over, it's such a bitter-sweet feeling because I'm so happy I've completed my job and made my couples happy, but I'm also a little bit sad because I've built a bit of a friendship up with them during the wedding planning process. My most recent wedding client was with me for 1 year and 5 months and I can't believe their wedding planning journey is now over ๐Ÿ˜ญ Have a look at what they had to say about their experience with Weddings & Events by Kirstie.

FUN FACT ๐Ÿ˜
How long do you think the average wedding planning journey is between a wedding planner and their client? For myself, it's around 1.5 years! Some clients I've worked with for 3 months and others 2+ years, but my average is around 1.5 years. This is why it's so important for me to know my clients. I don't want them to just be a number. When a client contacts me, I like to be able to know which wedding it is, which venue, what vendors I've used, etc. Of course, I'm not a robot that knows everything ๐Ÿ˜‚ But I always put the effort in to make sure I have a good understanding of my client and their wedding.

ENCHANTED TO MEET YOU... ๐Ÿฆ‹
When my clients came to me with a Taylor Swift - Enchanted To Meet You theme for a baby shower, I was so excited because it's so different to most of the work that I do. I loved seeing this beautiful baby shower come together, so I thought I would share it with you all! A big shout out to the vendors who helped make this possible ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿ‘‡

ELOPEMENTS ๐Ÿ’
Elopements are becoming more and more popular each year, and there are many reasons why. Have a look at some of these reasons below ๐Ÿฅฐ

1. Elopement allows couples to focus solely on their commitment to each other without the distractions or expectations that can come with a larger wedding ceremony.

2. Weddings can be expensive, and eloping can be a way to save money on venue, catering, decorations, and other expenses.

3. Family dynamics can be complicated, and eloping allows couples to avoid potential conflicts or pressures from family members.

I personally love and enjoy planning and coordinating elopements. Couples are always so relaxed and so excited to be getting married! If you're wanting to elope but you're not sure where to begin, then contact Weddings & Events by Kirstie now so I can plan the perfect elopement for you!

WEDDING PLANNING MUST DO๐Ÿ’
If you want your wedding planning journey to run smoothly, then one of the best things you can do is communicate! Effective communication with your partner, family, and vendors is crucial. Make sure everyone is on the same page regarding expectations, timelines, and preferences. This will ensure you have a smooth planning process, and it will save you lots of time and stress! It's simple but effective ๐Ÿ˜‰

REASONS WHY I DON'T POST EVERY CLIENT ON SOCIAL MEDIA
A lot of people have been asking me recently why I don't post every single client that I work for on my social media and although there are many reasons for this, I'm going to list a few of the common ones below.

* Many of my clients choose to elope, which means they prefer to keep their ceremony private, and I respect that.
* I always get permission from my clients before posting any photos or videos of their wedding, and sometimes my clients say no to this, which is perfectly ok as some people prefer to have a private life.
* I'm too busy... When I'm coordinating a wedding, I'm always so busy doing things that I don't even get the chance to pick up my phone to take a photo or video, and in all honesty... that's not what I'm hired to do. Sometimes, I manage to reach out to the professional photographer who was hired, and if I get permission from them as well as the couple, I may post a photo or two.

COMMON PROBLEM
The guest list can be one of the trickiest aspects of wedding planning. Balancing budget, venue capacity, and the desire to include everyone important can be quite challenging. My advice... sit down with your partner and create your list without the opinions of others affecting you. Questions to ask yourself while doing this can include:
- When was the last time we saw or spoke to this person?
- Is this person an important part of our lives?
- When we look back at our wedding photos in 5yrs, 10yrs or 20+ years, will the people in our photos still be in our lives?

Start tackling your list straight away because it may take longer than you think!
