Advice on choosing the right Wedding Planner
Essentially as a wedding planner we all do the same job – we plan weddings but like a photographer, a venue or perhaps a caterer, we all have different styles, budgets, experience and most importantly different personalities. So when you choose your photographer and want fun, colourful images, you will not pick a photographer that specialises in fine art photography so likewise, you should pick your planner in the same way. If you decide to choose another planner, its ok…we won’t take it personally! Likewise, if I am not the wedding planner for you then it’s ok! It is important we are exactly what you are looking for.
Choosing Your Caterer For Your Wedding or Event
As do I, my clients understand that the wedding breakfast is an important part of your wedding day. It is something that your guests will remember and you’ll want to ensure they have a great experience and thoroughly enjoy the food. The key is to find the caterer who will create the perfect menu for your day, at the right price for you.
Top Tips on Wedding Dress Shopping
Remember that if you’re buying a designer dress from a bridal boutique, you’ll need to allow a minimum of 6 months for it to be fitted properly and made for you. If you’re getting married out of season, in winter, then it may be less but bridal shops are really busy at peak times of year (after Valentine’s Day, for example) so make sure you go wedding dress shopping in plenty of time.
