Welcome to My Wedding-To-Be.com!

At the wonderful suggestions of friends, I want to share a little bit about this site.

I started in the event planning business almost 4 years ago and fell in love with it right away. I started to gain all this knowledge of how to work with a budget, how to deal with difficult vendors and clients, what were great venues and what weren't and so much more! When my friends starting getting married and I thought I have to share this information - and so it began.

To all the Brides-To-Be, Grooms-To-Be and everyone involved, welcome to My Wedding-To-Be! Please feel free to ask me questions, tell everyone stories and even answer questions and make suggestions of the good, the bad and the ugly. Also know that it doesn’t have to be all about weddings – it could be about any event planning!

Congratulations and Have Fun!

Keeping Everyone Happy at YOUR Wedding

Now that you, your fiancé, your families and all your friends have decided to take the plunge - you have a lot of fun, stress and happiness ahead.

When planning your wedding the hardest thing you will come across is remembering while it is important that the people who are paying for it (usually mom & dad) are happy with how their money is being spent, the wedding is about you and your fiancé.

When making floral choices, color scheme choices, linen choices etc. keep in mind it doesn’t matter is Aunt “I’m going to complain about everything” Louise doesn’t like the color purple. It doesn’t matter if your brother hasn’t worn shoes in 13 years because he is a self proclaimed “mountain man” – he has to wear those shiny, patent leather penguin shoes because you say so.

Just keep in mind that you don’t want to become a Bride-zilla and Groom-zilla (do those even exist?!). During the planning process make sure to say thank you to everyone who helps, breathe slowly when something is getting a little stressful – and take a break with each other from the wedding planning! By keeping yourself happy, stress-free and calm, all of your friends, family and guests will be happy too!

P.S: As long as your wedding party isn’t dressed like they are from another galaxy, everyone should be JUST FINE with the way YOUR wedding pans out – enjoy, and may the force be with you…
