Planning is Power

Put "Your Style" In your wedding

2009-02-03T11:11:00.000-08:00

Yes there are plenty of publications, books, and online tips of what is "in" or "out." It is important for the bride to remember that it is your day no matter the decision. If you like yellow but you get told that isn't "in" do it anyway. If it makes you happy and helps your day be better then have your Yellow.

Too many people get caught up in to what is accepted by others instead of working on making themselves happy. You have enough to worry about so at least enjoy and take pride in the day you unite with your love.

No stress just make it the day of your dreams

2009-01-23T06:41:00.000-08:00

I have seen so many friends and family deal with stress as they plan their wedding. It was not completely a joyous time because they had to deal with:

What other people wanted
Not knowing what they wanted
Trying negotiate with vendors
Be the bride and planner
No support from the bridal party
etc.

From seeing the things they went through and stepping up to be a helping hand whether I was in the wedding or not, it was only natural for me to start doing my own wedding planning. I enjoy helping every step of the way so that the Wedding Day is all the bride and groom hoped it would be and more.

So don't go through the planning process alone.

I am more than happy to work with your budget to make sure you have everything that you desire for your day.

I am just a phone call and email away.
