Happy Thanksgiving!
The Emergency Wedding Kit
It's one of those awesome perks of having a wedding planner. You never know what may happen and what you might need in the moment. Whether it be tapes of all types (fashion, floral, double sided, duct, gaff, etc.), thread in every color, needles, pins, safety pins of all sizes, floral wire, breath mints, gum, toothbrush, ibuprofen, nail clippers, nail file.... the list goes on. The point is there's no need to go out and buy a bunch of extra items to prepare. Sometimes it is as simple as scissors....

Escorting & Table Labels!
ESCORTING - TABLES - FAVORS
Incorporating your interests as a couple can be a fun and engaging way to make your wedding unique. Instead of using generic table numbering, seating charts, and escort cards, here are a few ideas of how you can make it more interesting....

LAYOUT - GROUNDPLAN - FLOORPLAN
I can't stress enough how important layouts are. Here are a handful of major benefits:
- Keeps you, your planner, and your vendors on the same page.
- Maps out not only how the space will look, but how guest traffic will flow.
- Helps to show where power will be needed (think uplighting).
- Indicates important locations such as Restrooms, Entrances/Exits, Prep Areas, Parking, etc.
