Yes, You Do Need Us

It seems like there is still this thing where people feel like wedding and event planners are an unnecessary luxury. We can't begin to tell you the stories we have hear and read about how a couple's wedding was unorganized or how the Bride didn't have a good time because she spent most of the time delegating responsibilities or focusing on issues and not enjoying her day. There's also the age long debate on wedding coordinator vs. venue coordinator. You can see our thoughts on that in the below post.

Independent Planner vs Venue Planner

We have a pretty good understanding of both sides to this. On the one hand we as planners can understand the issue of budget. Do wedding planners cost? Yes, we do cost and that fee, to some, may seem like it out of control or super expensive. Cost can vary from company to company so absolutely do your research to find out which works best. On the other hand, there is a reason for those fees. We are basically controlling the pace of your day and the memory you are trying to create for yourself and your guests. There is certifications and experience that accompany what the planners are offering and if you had it in your mind to hire the "celebrity planner" then prepare to pay even more.

Our goal is to make sure you are not missing out on the celebrate of you as a couple because the aunt that was supposed to make your food got so caught up in your planning she forgot or the cousin who said would take your pictures doesn't have professional equipment. Check out our infograph below and see just what all we can offer you if you give us the opportunity.

Let There Be Ultra Violet

Pantone just released their color for 2018. First, I have to say - it's about to be 2018! The days and months have gone by in such a whirlwind trying to keep up is something else. Our poor little blog shows it too. I digress...

Back to the subject at hand, Pantone has chosen 18-3838. To those of us who don't have any idea what that means, that translates to the color Ultra Violet.

According to Pantone, this color is "A dramatically provocative and thoughtful purple shade..." This is a blue-based purple and is already creating some inspirational buzz. Below is just some of the things we have found.

It's still very early on since the announcement and we cannot wait to see what others will come up with to display this beautiful and rich purple hue.

Let us know, now that it's out, will this become a part of your wedding color palette?

It's 2015, Where have you been?

Hello to all. We know that we have been SERIOUSLY neglecting the blog world. So much has been going on with us as a business and individually. Some changes are on the horizon for us and we can't wait to share them.

This is a new year and with this new year, we will try to stay engaged and offer postings that I know will be informative and helpful for anyone looking to plan a special day whether is your wedding, birthday, or preparing for new baby.

We have some new ideas on what we can talk about as well as revive some of the old ones that we once presented to you all. If there is something you'd like for us to discuss or write about, make sure you leave it in the comments below. Stay tuned and see what's about to happen!

Thank you for your continued support and your patience as we continue to work our dream.
