WEDDING TIP OF THE WEEK
When choosing your table decorations for your special day don’t be afraid to choose your favorite things. You can make so many things work together that you wouldn’t think would. For ideas look on Pinterest, look on your venue’s social media and website, ask your day of coordinator for ideas and check and see if your venue offers a decoration package.

WEDDING TIP OF THE WEEK

Make sure you have snacks and drinks for the dressing rooms! Your morning is busy with hair and makeup, getting in your dress, pictures with your bridal party, first looks, private vows, and so many little last minute things. Some venue packages include drinks and snacks for the bridal parties but if they are not included check with your day of coordinator or ask an aunt or other family member that would not mind helping. You do not want to be feeling sick and dehydrated before your ceremony starts!

Thank you Maudie Lucas Photography for these sweet pictures from our niece’s wedding.

Is anyone having problems with tagging others in post? I am unable to tag more than 2 vendors in a post at the moment.

On March 16th of this year Joey and I had the pleasure of hosting our niece Allyssa’s wedding. We worked along side Austin’s parents to give them the best wedding we could and I think it turned out beautiful. Allyssa is like one of our own and Austin is a great young man. We put this wedding together in a few short months with the help of some amazing vendor friends that we are so thankful for! We had venue staff volunteer to work this wedding for free to help keep cost down, so many of our family members stepped in to help, Austin’s parents did an amazing job with dinner, the cakes were delicious and made by Austin’s mom Erin, other desserts were provided by a family friend, Erin also made all the bridal florals, Stephanie was an amazing day of coordinator (Erin and I could not have finished everything without her) Darrin was such a fun and entertaining DJ, Maudie did such an amazing job with all the photos, Vanessa did a beautiful job with Alyssa’s hair and makeup, Tuxedo Express was great for all the guy’s tuxedos, and Alterations Unlimited was great with last minute details. This date was a cancellation by another couple and we were blessed to be able to rebook with the same vendors already scheduled for that day. It was a lot of work in a short amount of time but the smiles on their faces make it all worth it. Austin and Allyssa we love you and look forward to everything your future holds. Erin and Ovi we look forward to many years of family get togethers. Allyssa Whitmore Austin Whitmore OviErin Miranda Vanessa Renae Tuxedo Express David's Bridal

WEDDING TIP OF THE WEEK Once you have chosen and booked your venue we believe the next step in planning your wedding is to decide who you would like for your photographer and DJ. Here is why, when booking these 2 vendors you are most likely booking 1 person and they will take 1 event the day of your wedding. Therefore book them early or miss out on getting the ones you really wanted! Catering is important for sure but when booking your caterer you could be booking with a company that has multiple teams they can send to multiple events the day of your wedding. Also think about if you are having a wedding planner, day of coordinator, videographer, a florist for fresh or artificial flowers, Photo Booth company, live music, etc. keep your budget in mind so you are not overly stressed about how to pay all the vendor balances when the time comes. If you need help choosing vendors we have a great list of recommendations we include in our venue tour folders.

WEEKLY WEDDING TIP

When planning your wedding don’t forget about cocktail hour snacks for your guest. Sometimes family and bridal party photos can take a little longer than expected once the ceremony is over and your guest will appreciate something to snack on while they are waiting to go into the reception. Charcuterie tables are great, or you can do something as simple as chips and salsa. If you need ideas reach out to your caterer, coordinator or venue. We have a great list of vendors that can help you.

Those of you who know me personally know I am not an early morning person. I don’t know why, I just prefer to be awake after 8:00am. But on the days that require me to be awake early and be ready to run until late that night I am always delighted by some little gift, it might be our local sandhill cranes coming for a visit, the quietness of the early morning before a crazy day, or an amazing sunrise through the planted pines. Our mornings at the venue always hold a little gift and I am so thankful.

Please do not pay this guy any money to be part of this event. He has not booked anything with the venue, this is a scam. Thankfully a food truck owner reached out to check with me before paying him. I can not find him on Facebook so he may have me blocked.
