🔑 Wedding Planning Secret: Don't Skip the Venue Walk-Through! 🔑

Hey bestie! Let's talk about one of the most overlooked (but SO important) steps in wedding planning...

That final venue walk-through with your vendors! 🏛️✨

Here's the real tea: You can have the most gorgeous Pinterest-perfect plan, but if your vendors haven't physically walked the space with you before the big day? Things can get... interesting. 😅

**Why this matters:**
📍 Your florist needs to see exactly where those centerpieces are going
📍 Your photographer needs to scope out the best lighting spots
📍 Your caterer needs to know the kitchen setup and serving flow
📍 Your planner (hi, that's me! 👋) needs to coordinate it all so day-of runs like clockwork

**Pro tip:** Schedule this walk-through 1-2 weeks before your wedding. Bring your timeline, your floor plan, and all the questions. This is when we catch the little details that make a HUGE difference—like realizing the ceremony backdrop needs to shift three feet to the left for perfect sunset photos. 🌅

Trust me, taking an hour or two for this walk-through = zero day-of surprises and way more peace of mind! 💕

Drop a 🙌 in the comments if you've done your venue walk-through, or tag your planner bestie who's got this handled!

Ever wondered what makes weddings truly magical?

It’s not just the flowers or the cake (though, let’s be real, cake always helps!). It’s the feeling that every little detail was chosen just for you—by someone who cares as much as you do. That’s why I only book one event at a time, so your big day gets my full, undivided attention. No double-booking, no rushing, just your vision brought to life, one thoughtful timeline at a time.

🕐 The 5-Minute Vendor Check That Could Save Your Wedding Day!

Bestie, I've seen too many couples skip the basics and end up with vendor drama later. Trust me, these 5 quick questions will save you SO much stress (and maybe some tears):

✨ "What's your backup plan if you can't make it?"
(Weather, illness, emergencies happen—you need to know!)

✨ "Can I see a full contract before we book?"
(No surprises on pricing or policies, please!)

✨ "How do you handle timeline changes?"
(Because weddings rarely go exactly as planned)

✨ "What's included in your quoted price?"
(Setup, cleanup, travel fees—get it ALL in writing)

✨ "Can you provide 3 recent client references?"
(Real couples, real experiences, real peace of mind)

Pro tip: If they can't answer these easily or seem annoyed by the questions, that's your cue to keep looking! Your dream team should LOVE talking about how they'll make your day amazing.
