A Toast to Mothers! As we enter Mother’s Day week I wanted to take a moment to reflect on the importance of family in a wedding. The wedding ceremony is the blending of two families into one and while some portions of the ceremony ritual dictate how this happens, I want each of my planning clients to also take a few moments to relax, enjoy and take a deep breath. I also want their families to do the same. Savoir […]
We all know entering any special event an experience for the entire mind, body and soul. It’s something for each of the 5 senses and one of my favorites for my clients to think about is the sense of touch! Every client thinks about sight and sound, and quite obviously taste – but touch is of equal importance. In many cases, it relates to the other senses. If you touch something – it’s because the sense of sight made […]

For over ten years I’ve loved hearing couples tell the story about how they met, their first date and eventually, the proposal. It’s fun to hear how the groom-to-be often nervously asked permission of the bride’s father (sometimes with her mom present, other times without her there) and then planned the perfect time to finally ask the most important question of his life. I’ve heard some wonderful stories lately – I’ve had some pretty lucky clients! Two clients lately have […]

Here are a few tips to help navigate […]
