Kiss and Tell Weddings

Take a deep breath, climb atop of the biggest bed you can find, and jump up and down hysterically!!! YOU'RE GETTING MARRIED!!!!! Congratulations on your engagement!! Now regain your composure and call your parents. Tell them the good news first. Then send a mass text to all of your family and friends!! The 'proper' way would be to hold an engagement party and formally announce your engagement, but let's face it...technology has changed all of the rules!  So here's an idea....tell your friends and THEN have an engagement party and 'formally' announce your engagement!! I highly recommend hiring a bridal consultant and/or wedding planner (here comes the plug.... Kiss and Tell Weddings ) to help you with the logistics (date, location, theme, budget, style, etc.) of your wedding.   As your Bridal Consultant I will not tell you what to do but rather   listen   to your wishes and desires of your dream wedding.

Many people wonder they need to hire a wedding planner...well, I am going to give you a few reasons why. Now these reasons come from experience (my professional experience) and experience (attended events as a guest). Let's get started! Your invitation states that the ceremony will begin at 6pm. You arrive at 5:45pm, seat yourself, and wait...and wait and right as you are about to leave the ceremony begins promptly at 6:53pm. Not only does this throw off your plans for the rest of the evening but it also interferes with the photographer's timeline, the caterer's serving time, and it rushes the rest of the events because the venue is only booked until 10pm. After waiting almost an hour to see your friend say "I Do", you walk into the reception hall to find out that all of the seats are taken. What was the point in RSVPing?? So now you are stuck sitting by the restroom door in a chair that was pulled from the venue's office.  Since the ceremony was...

You're engaged! Now What???? First, tell your family. You do not want them to find out on social media or from your friends. If you have your ring, go ahead and insure it. Your ring was a BIG investment! Treat it as such!! Insurance will replace your ring if lost or stolen.   Photos!!! No, I'm not talking about selfies!! LOL! Have a quick engagement photo session. Take some and give to family and friends or order just a few for you, him, and the parents.  Think about your guest list. Determining the number of guests will help with venue selection and budget. The more guest, the bigger the venue. The more guest, the bigger the budget.  Choose your wedding date range. I say 'range' just in case the exact date that you want may not be available at the exact venue that you want.  Set your budget. Decide who will pay for what. Start saving. Select your venue options. Do you want your ceremony and reception at the same place? Do you want a d...
