Having an outdoor reception? Iām sure you have a rain contingency plan with your venue but something people always forget about is the wind! Here are a few things to consider:
- Use a heavy duty easel for signage and attach the sign to the stand if possible. This should reduce the risk of your signs being pushed over by the wind. Alternatively, try to find a spot for the sign that is exposed to less wind.
- Having place cards? Think of ways to add weight so they donāt blow away or tuck them under another item.
- Make sure any tall table decor is bottom heavy instead of top heavy!
- If you donāt have weighted table decor on cocktail tables, use double sided tape or clips to keep your linens in place.

Iām sharing a huge time saving hurricane vase hack with you!
Instead of spending SO much time trying to get the smoke off of your hurricane vases with hot water and soap, just use a little rubbing alcohol on a cloth or cleaning rag and wipe that residue right off!

For the love of details ā¦ what should you give to your photographer for your flat lay or detail photos? You can screen shot our list here! Of course you donāt need to provide every item but this should give you an idea of things to choose from!
We suggest getting a small box or container to put your items in for an easy hand off to your photographer.
Happy Planning!

If you dream of having a destination wedding but the idea of planning it scares the s*** out of you then youāve landed in the right place.
Of course, our first tip is to hire a planning team but if that isnāt in the cards, then this is where we would start:
ā¢ Firstā¦ choose your location & venue! Typically destination resorts have a big range of the number of guests they can accommodate. Having an idea of your guest count will determine your price range and sometimes the more guests you have results in more/better incentives (free nights or extra amenities) which leads me to the next pointā¦
ā¢ Put together a list of people that you plan to invite. You can typically expect 50-60% of that list will make the trip depending on how far it is and how much notice you give them. Itās best to give your guests at least 9-12 months notice with destination weddings.
ā¢ Request a list of preferred vendors from your venue for photographers, entertainment, florists, decorators etc. You can also look at the location of the venue / resort on instagram (not the page but the tagged location) and look at the vendors tagged in their posts!
ā¢ Have a mood board or Pinterest page ready to share with your florist and decorator so they can give you recommendations for flowers in season for that location as well as the decor they offer that matches your style. Itās difficult when you canāt visit the showroom but they do these events all the time so you can usually trust their recommendation!
ā¢ Last tipā¦ be flexible. Thereās only so much you can do from home. Things donāt always go to plan but at the end of the day youāre there with your person and closest friends and family. It doesnāt get much better than a vacation with all of your favorite people!

Artificial Intelligence for wedding planning?!? This is going to change the game. How many times have you had an idea in your head that youāre having a hard time bringing to life or better yet, trying to explain it to someone like your planner or florist. This is going to revolutionize wedding planning!
Have fun!
