✨ A Day in the Life of a Wedding & Event Coordinator ✨ Ever wonder what a real day looks like behind the scenes? Here’s a little snapshot of my 8 AM – 4 PM adventure—because wedding & event coordination is never just one thing! 🎈 Morning Hustle: Kicked off the day working on a balloon display, but before we could finish… 🎤 BNI Spotlight: Rushed off to a @TracyGiversBNI meeting, where I was the presenting speaker (because networking never stops!) 🎈 Back to Balloons: Came back just in time to complete the balloon décor before lunchtime. 🚗 Mom Mode: Picked up my daughter and headed to her orthodontist appointment. ☕ Coffee Break: Snuck in a much-needed coffee stop while she was getting her adjustment. 🍽 Lunch Date: Took my girl out for a little midday treat—because balance is key! 💻 Office Time: Back home to tackle emails, client details, and planning magic. 📸 Annual Tradition: Wrapped up the day with our yearly photoshoot with the incredibly talented @McAnallyMoments—one of our favorite traditions! 💕 No two days look the same in this world, but that’s what makes it so exciting! ✨ Would you survive a day in my shoes? 😆 Drop a 💪 in the comments if you love the hustle! #WeddingAndEventCoordinator #DayInTheLife #EventPlannerLife #BNIMeeting #Networking #BalloonDecor #MomLife #AnnualPhotoshoot #WorkLifeBalance #DoTheThings

🎇 Everything You Need to Know About a Sparkler Grand Exit! 🎇 Planning a magical, photo-worthy sparkler exit? ✨ Here’s what you should keep in mind: 1️⃣ Check with Your Venue 🏛️ Not all venues allow sparklers due to fire hazards or local regulations. Always double-check with your venue coordinator. 2️⃣ Timing is Everything ⏰ Schedule your exit towards the end of the night while your guests are still lively but before too many have left. 3️⃣ Use Long Sparklers 🔥 Opt for 20–36 inch sparklers. They burn longer (about 2-4 minutes), giving enough time to coordinate the perfect send-off. 4️⃣ Have a Sparkler Station 🗂️ Set up a table with sparklers, a lighter, and a bucket of sand or water for safe disposal. Assign someone to oversee this area. 5️⃣ Give Clear Instructions 🎤 Have your DJ or coordinator guide guests on where to stand and how to light the sparklers. Safety first! 6️⃣ Hire a Photographer 📸 Capturing the glow, sparks, and smiles is an art. Your photographer will make sure you get those Pinterest-perfect shots! 7️⃣ Safety First! 🚨 Keep kids and intoxicated guests at a safe distance. Have a fire extinguisher or water bucket handy, just in case. ✨ A sparkler exit adds a magical and unforgettable moment to your big day, and with a little prep, it can be smooth and safe!

Price transparency!! With Pinterest, TikTok, Instagram, and just the Internet in general we need to bring pricing back to reality. Table one (first two pictures) for 8 people $882. This is going to be on the higher end. With multiple floral centerpieces at different heights, pillar candles with hurricanes, votives, a full set of silverware, chargers and preset plates, and glassware. Table two (pictures 3 and 4 - green table linen)is going to be a more standard design that still will hold all of the needs of your guest. You’ll still have your floral centerpiece, some votives, a smaller silverware set better for buffets, and a preset water glass. Both of these tables do have velvet linens, for the tablecloth and the napkin. They are both in a jewel color palette, and they both are perfectly acceptable for any event. want the price sheet Diem to you? Just comment $ and we will send them over!
