What do the rain and your wedding planner have in common?

The truth is how your planner handles the rain may be what you remember most about your wedding.

All of this crazy weather in Texas has us thinking way back. Back to the very first wedding where a very large pop-up storm (not detected on radar) confirmed why we do what we do.

A wedding planners demeanor in how they handle situations that aren’t plan A matters. When it comes to the rain a few important things are:

🌧️ Where is entertainment? Their equipment, connections, generator?
🌧️ Where is catering? Food prep, serving, clean up?
🌧️ Where are the guests that might need additional assistance?

We’re sharing a more things we managed to make a big difference on the journal. Take a peek at Wedding Wednesday No. 6 for our take of rain on a wedding day.

🌧️We don’t ever bring up the rain as a sore spot. We want our brides to love their plan B (and C-G) as much as plan A.

How do you feel about rain on an event day? Do you love it, or leave it (if given the option). Tell us below!

Happy 10 years to B + L!

I can still remember the day. It was beautiful, wet, and perfect!

💍 We had spent months planning and designing on the family property. The tents, floral, linens, restrooms, transportation from the house to the ceremony and reception for the couple. Parking. Everything you need when you build and produce a site from scratch.

💍 The one thing we planned for, but don’t ever think you need the plan for happened. It rained, and rained.

💍 Let me tell you despite the rain before the ceremony, the joy found that night was palpable. There was laughter and there were (happy) tears. There was dancing and fun, and the day couldn’t have been more perfect.

💍 These sweet families are what dreams are made of. The kind of couples we find joy in serving with our whole heart. The beautiful feature in Cottage Hill Magazine was a testament to just that!

Happy 10 years of celebrating your love story! Cheers to decades more!

Today’s dreary skies have us dreaming about the perfect day, and the beautiful Sperry tent at Arrowhead Hill a couple of weeks ago!

💍 Over the past 13+ years we’ve had the pleasure of working in venues and on beautiful estates in multiple states. It’s always the greatest joy to help our couples and clients celebrate their most treasured events.

💍 We treat each space with the utmost respect as if it was our own home.
💍 We care for our couples in getting ready suites.
💍 We handle doors to forever with a gentle touch.
💍 We celebrate on dance floors.
💍 We cherish the moments that start the next chapter.
💍 we tap away tears of joy behind doors.
💍 We hold so many moments so close in so many amazing spaces.

💍 We have seen venues come and go, but our time in each space is always cherished. We can’t wait to be back at Arrowhead Hill in May to celebrate again!
