Summer is here but we have to look back to March when we worked with the sweetest couple from Iowa. H+O were troopers! There wedding was 3/16/24 in Winter Park, and that week there was a BIG snowstorm. The couple and their family did everything to get to Winter Park.

Things to avoid when you're at the altar.
1. Don't make the ceremony too long (2O minutes is average)
2. Don't make the ceremony too short (15 minutes or less)
3. Don’t ad-lib the wedding ceremony (or any part of it)
4. Don’t share anything embarrassing about each other

Happy Planning!

Each wedding season I work with a variety of couples and that is what adds to the fun. Sometimes the wedding is at a well known venue and other times it's an intimate private home. I wouldn't change anything about the couples I worked with in 2018. They were all incredible and kind. Contact me if you are looking for that special place to say "I Do". There are so many hidden gems in Grand County and all over colorful Colorado.

If you hired me as your wedding planner or day of coordinator you will know that I LOVE DOGS. I had to share this article since it hits home for me. I have three fur babies and treat them like gold. We have two Golden Retrievers and one rescue, and I highly recommend the Golden Retrievers for any couple/family. Loyal, trusting and loving is just a few words to describe their mannerisms.

Ready to bring a fur baby into your life? Here are some of the best dog breeds that recently engaged and married couples should consider.

This week I ended the 2018 wedding season on a great note. I had my last wedding at Headwaters Center with a family from Georgia. The MOG was so kind to write this review which made my heart sing.

"My son & future daughter in law decided they wanted a wedding in Colorado. I’ve never been there & would have been lost if not for the excellent guidance of Melanie. She directed us to the perfect venue, coordinated all our vendors and created all the floral as well as coordinated and directed the entire wedding day. To say her service was invaluable would be an understatement. If you are looking for a top notch planner and/or florist I could not recommend her any more. Our special day was as close to perfect as you can get thanks to Melanie."

Melanie is amazing! We planned our wedding in 4 months and she was there every step of the way. The day of we had some unexpected things pop up, and she was quick to get everything resolved with grace and composure. I would hight recommend Melanie if...
