Ask a Question
Wedding Planner - Question for Brides
Wow, this site has changed greatly since we married in '09. Enjoy every minute planning bc when its over you'll have nothing to keep you occupied at work anymore (besides work) LOL


I want to ask you brides a question. I am looking into becoming event/wedding planner. So I have been doing some research and this is a great avenue to get real answers from various brides.

If you weren't so savvy as a DIY bride, and wanted to have a Wedding Planner;

1. What would be a major task that you wish the planner to provide to you? (ie. Day of Ceremony svc, full wedding coordinator, invitations, supplying vendors, assistance with budgeting etc..)

2. What service/function would you like your planner to provide that some may not?

3. If you have been to Bridal shows, did any wedding coordinators stand out to you? And why? (what was it about their presentation)

I would greatly appreciate your input.

Time for some pix
The best day thus far in my life!
I can honestly say we and our guest had a great time.

This comment from many guest sums up what we had try to do from the beginning:

"your wedding as a from ceremony and reception told your story"
"Your reception definitely portrayed you guys as a couple"

I Love it. We wanted to show our personalities thru out our wedding. We didnt want to over do it with ideas and things that weren't us. I am so happy to receive so many compliments from our guest that understood our wedding was undoubtably "OUR WEDDING"

3 MONTHS STRONG AND MANY MORE TO GO!!
Here some pix. I have over 500 pix. this is too much.

Church Pix will come soon!

I cant even bother with assemblying the photo album w/ The Pros!

Bachelorette Party
A blast, a day/night I won't forget...
My Naughty and Nice theme plays out into the Bachelorette party

This past saturday was my party. Who needs strippers when you can be one yourself for a few hours. Let me just say we are all still in major pain!!

Our pole dancing/chair dancing class was in full effect.
I still cannot believe we went out later that night to drink and dance!
I couldnt go to work Monday morning b/c my body was in dire need of a massage!

Here are some pictures. We had a ball, my mom and one of her friends joined us. I rocked the 3in stilleos!

If you have a local Striptease studio around, it is a MUST, for your bridal girls!!!

Did you know??
Costco Offers Vacations
I just learned from our jeweler that Costco offers vacations!!
And its very competitive with expedia, travelocity and other popular websites we all are familiar with.

Call me silly, but I didnt realize my Costco membership had offered all this - Pays to read the Brochure!!!!!!

The offer a full range of options ladies! Check it out. My FH is our "travel agent" he loves seeking for the best deal - gettig much bang for our bucks!!

Although we did go with Expedia when we booked our trip, but now we know about Costco we will definitely in the future check out their options.

Honeymoon
Our trip is booked
I cant wait to get away from work and vacate reality, and settle into paradise and bliss!!! All inclusive resort Barcelo La Jolla de Mismaloya, Mexico.

I am really excited about the Zoo, we can go in and feed all the animals, and hold and play with baby chimps & tiger cubs. Zip-wire thru the Rainforest, marble bathrooms.

*It has been highly recommended that we wait to get to the hotel and ask for a upgrade b/c of honeymoom trip, to get extra costly services. Right not we are mid-grade honeymoon room but we will be asking for an upgraded room. Either way we have a nice cozy honeymoon suite.

Great reviews where ever we looked online!!
