IN THEORY: Kids Will Be Kids
August 16, 2012 By Leave a Comment
We have talked about having children at weddings and how much drama this can cause during the invitation process by having to tell people that their kids are not welcome to an adult only reception. We also talk to brides about how a little flower girl or ring bearer may not make it down the aisle. But here is another case in point ~ video evidence that kids may be disruptive to your ceremony!

IN THEORY: Not Everyone Is A Wedding Professional
July 26, 2012 By 1 Comment
The wedding industry has become BIG business and a lot of newbies have jumped on the bandwagon. We have no problem with that as long as they do what was promised, at the price that was promised and delivery/install as promised. There are a lot of people that over sell and under deliver… and as wedding planners, we see it a lot! Here are some red flags that always get us worried when brides book people who really do not know what they are doing.

IN THEORY: CDC ~ Wedding Day Survival Plan
July 19, 2012 By Leave a Comment
Thank you to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for providing us with the Wedding Day Survival Plan.
We’re sure it’s just a fluke that wedding season happens to coincide with hurricane season. Ensuring that everything is perfect for the big day requires a great deal of strategy, coordination, and patience. As you gather your nearest and dearest to celebrate what should be a joyful time, Mother Nature, clashing personalities, and unexpected situations could easily thwart even the best laid plans. Being in the throes of wedding season, many of us here at CDC realized that planning for a wedding isn’t that much different from planning for a disaster. Just remember: Get a Kit, Make a Plan, and Be Informed.

And you can either go with the flow and enjoy your special day or let something stupid become your focus and ruin your day! Here is a true wedding day story from one of our facebook followers!

Contentment consisteth not in adding more fuel,
but in taking away some fire.

Anyone who has ever been part of a wedding – whether as a bride, groom, bridesmaid, mother of bride or just in attendance – knows that the possibility of drama is endless on this special day!
