Gorgeous wedding at La Cumbre Country Club... bride and groom are beautiful people inside and out...actually coordinated her parents wedding long ago. Sandy at La Cumbre Country Club and I have worked together many, many times and the food and service just keep getting more and more outstanding! Sarah Hinton of Rincon Floral did the flowers and as the bride's mother said, she really caught exactly their vision. Area 51 provided fantastic music as they danced the night away...

Wedding Planning for 2010

Congratulations to all the happy couples who became engaged over the holidays!
So you are getting married and now what do you do? The minute you become engaged, all your friends and even complete strangers take pleasure in providing you with endless amounts of advice and information based on their own wedding experiences. (The same thing unfortunately happens when you become pregnant!) You listen patiently to all they have to say and yes, there may be some great advice that you can use. They all mean well but don't let people pressure you into feeling like planning a wedding has to be stressful and you have to hurry, hurry hurry. It can be overwhelming, and, as a wedding planner with over 30 years experience, my advice is WIN...do what's important now. Take it one or two steps at a time...keep it fun...enjoy the process!!!
So you may ask, what IS important now?
The first thing is to inform your families and maybe discuss budget. The second thing should hopefully be to hire a professional wedding planner (would LOVE for it to be ME!) and thirdly, two things that go together...the date and the location.
Tune in soon for more...
