Summer of Love!
August and September 2015
Thankfully, I have 2 weddings to coordinate this summer. I will have the honor of being present at the union of Mr. and Mrs. (to be) Smith and Mr. and Mrs. (to be) Hawkins!
Coordinating a wedding sounds super fun but it is a lot of work! Timelines, places, contracts, hot meals (not luke warm), vendor placement, and contingency plans....just to name a few of the items that I handle. All of that is the "behind the scenes" work that make the "in front of the scenes" look nice.
I also help clients with proper wedding etiquette. For example, never post registry information in your wedding invitation. You are requesting the company of your guests, which is why you invited them in the first place, not gifts. If you receive gifts, be sure to send handwritten thank you notes.
Guest RSVP is a service that I provide for my clients to relieve them of the duty of keeping count of who is attending and who is not. Tip: when handing out invitations, keep a list of who received one. Organization is key.
Unorganized records will also cost you money. For example, too many guests may mean extra food (added expense). Unconfirmed guests who attend may cause you additional money based on the capacity agreement between you and the venue.
Do not be afraid to ask for help. Wedding planners are in your corner. We want the best for you!
