A New Year, A New Goal & a Giveaway!!

Since I started this blog last Summer, I have done ABSOLUTELY nothing with it! So one of my biggest goals for 2011 is to keep up with my wedding blog.

Weddings are my passion, and I want share my love of weddings with the world. A blog (when properly maintained and updated) seems like the best way to do it. I am thinking weekly updates will be the plan. In these updates I will share all sorts of ideas & pictures from weddings I see online, or from a wedding I did (whether it be from that week or in the past.) I will talk about themes or trends I am loving, or maybe about a local venue, photographer, florist, etc. that I feel deserves some extra attention.

Making it in the wedding business is all about being seen, and passion for what you do can only take you so far. You can be great at what you do, but if no one sees you, they won't know to call you...I want to improve my possibility of being seen, as well as other vendors who are in this wonderful business.

I am really excited about all that 2011 holds and I am looking forward to sharing this year with you!

To kick off the New Year right I am a part of a great giveaway, hosted by Chuck Williams Photography. I worked with them at a wedding last Summer and loved them! (Be sure to check out their blog, website or facebook page.)

Again, this is open to all engaged couples so pass the word along to your friends and good luck!!

A little bit about me...and why I started this blog

I have decided to start a blog specifically for my wedding coordinating information.

I have met some amazing photographers, florists, cake designers, etc. over this past year. (Since I started doing wedding coordinating for more than just my friends.) And I wanted to have a place to share the great contacts I have made for all the Brides (or little girls dreaming about their future wedding) that are in the area!

We little girls dream of our wedding day from a young age, but even with all that planning, the stress of the actual wedding day is too much to try to handle on your own. That is where I come in. I have a real passion for weddings and my goal as a wedding coordinator is to help you create and enjoy your special day.

I can do as little, or as much as you need me to do, to help you see the realization of your dream day.

If you want me from the beginning stages
to help with connecting you to florists, photographers, etc.
I am there!
If all you need is a voice for the rehearsal and wedding day
to keep everything running smoothly
I am there!

Please feel free to email me with any questions, or if you have a wedding date coming up and need a hand to make it what you've always dreamed of!
