Two Planners and a Designer

If you love weddings like we do, you know that the most awesome sight is to see ALL the ideas that you have worked so hard to implement, come together flawlessly. Indeed it is pure beauty at its best. But let's not run ahead of ourselves.

How about those of you who have just recently realized you have a wedding to plan? We have cleverly titled this blog entry “So You’re Engaged, What Next”?

Hmmmm. Interesting question isn’t it? Just to imagine that within a 24 hour-time frame you can go from totally single and ready to mingle, to got the ring and about to be wed. WOW! Then come the barrage of questions, making you realize that you should have had these things thought out already. “When will it be?”, “Where are you having it?”, “Indoor or Outdoor?”, “Traditional or Modern?” “White or Ivory?”, “Plated or Buffet?” And it goes on and on and on. Take a deep breath, count to 10 and let’s start all over. So you’re engaged, what next?

First, CONGRATULATIONS! Enjoy your moment. It is a wonderful, joyous thing that that special man would choose you to be his ship mate, his queen-to-be. And for you brothers, isn’t it a relief that she actually said “Yes”. LOL. Bask in your moment. You deserve it.

Second, call your family and closest friends and share your good news. Good news is infectious. It just has a way of uplifting the spirit and encouraging the soul. You’ll be surprised how many people are TRULY happy for you.

Third, GET TO PLANNING!!!!! Your wedding is going to be the single most amazing, spectacular, magnificent day of your life. NO DETAIL must be left to chance. Let your imagination run wild! If you can THINK it, then it CAN be done. But watch out now, no one wants a bride GONE wild in their camp. LOL. Moderation should still be the name of the game. Also planning your wedding should be FUN! If it ain’t fun, then something is WRONG. We hope this helps all you goo-goo eyed, lovey dovey, about to step into marital bliss couples out there.

As we sign off, we want to ask one more question: How long after you get engaged should you expect to walk down the aisle? Let this be our discussion for the week.

Let us hear your thoughts. Thanks for stopping by!
