something green

Although you may not want to wear a recycled dress, there’s lots of ways you can give something back on your wedding day. We donated the leftover food from our wedding to a local homeless shelter (they picked it right up from our caterer the following Monday). But I also love this new trend I discovered – plantable stationary and more.

A wedding planner’s pet peeves

Hello, hello! This little baby has been sitting on my computer for quite a while. Well, actually, for so long I forgot it was there. But then I found it, and felt that now is as good a time to share it with you as any other. You see, a long time ago, I wrote a little Top Ten of things to do to drive your wedding planner insane. It’s not a very nice list, albeit I tried to make it as funny as possible. Sadly, it is all based on past experiences (trust me, most of it doesn’t happen anymore). The reason I didn’t post it sooner is that it might not make me look like the nicest person in the world. But now ...

A little word on wedding planning

Hello everyone! Ok, I am sooo excited about this post, my hands are actually shaking right now. I have quite a bit of thoughts to share today, so please bare with me if it gets too long. I had lunch today with Azar from Principal Planner. Well, it was supposed to be brunch, but we were both late. After “blunch”, we decided to go for coffee on a terrace, from which we got kicked out after a couple of hours. So we ended up enjoying the late afternoon sunshine sitting on the grass on the Mountain. Now, if you don’t know what a wedding planner’s life is like, let me tell you: Two of them getting together, mid-May, to spend 5 hours doing nothing but ...

Hello, hello! I’ve been dying to blog for a while, but things have been so hectic here at the office that I haven’t been quite able to do so. We are planning some great weddings for this summer, and I promise that I will keep you posted as they come. But here’s another thing I like to keep you posted about: Booking super duper cool brides. A few weeks ago, I went for coffee with a photographer. Now, this was a simple “let’s meet” kind of meeting. But, as it turns out, the miss was engaged, and one thing led to another… And you guessed it, I will be planning her wedding! Annalie Young is a gifted photographer with a light, photo-journalistic, romantic style. You ...

tip of the week: traditions: keep’em or toss’em

Thumbnail image for tip of the week: traditions: keep’em or toss’em

Hello everyone! I feel terrible, as I skipped my “tip of the week” last week. It’s been absolutely hectic here in our office, as wedding season is now only a few short weeks away. I have been spending a lot of time with my clients preparing their wedding day schedules, and inevitably one question always pops up: What about the “traditional”? What has to stay? What can go? So I’ve decided that today’s tip will be all about traditions. Some are old, some are new, and depending on the couple, some are altogether obsolete. Still, there is something nice about traditions. They are what our parents did, and their parents did before them, and their parents’ parents did way back when. Traditions attach us to ...
