Wedding planning book and keepsake

Simone, on October 12, 2016 at 18:22 Posted in Plan a wedding 0 21
Hi everyone,
I bought this book which I have found very helpful along with using the Wedding wire app. This book is helpful with asking questions to vendors, planning your wedding, planning a timeline for the day, gives information on processional and recessional line and seating arrangements for reception. It's full of tips and good advice as well! The nice part it is a keepsake for anyone who wants to remember their day and pass it on to family or even future children.

    I like your tip on having sticky notes available and on hand to make additional notes. It great that this book can be passed on to our kids as a reference. Smiley smile

    I love the questions to ask vendors. The tips have helped me cut costs and helped alot. Some of the questions I ask my wedding planner about and even she hasn't thought of it - but she has other questions that she asks too I am all about the notes - I keep sticky notes in the book and that way if I'm in a rush and it's messy I still have my answers but I can make it look nice to keep for my kids to see all the hard work that went into planning our wedding.

    I agree Alyson. I used the questions in my book yesterday with a videographer that my finance and I had a meeting with. The questions were perfect and you can compare the answers with others that you have a consultation in the same categories. This helps to decide on the best person to hire on your big day.

    The things that I find most help full is that it gives you ideas on what to ask your vendors. it is fantastic knowing the exact questions to ask to make sure that they are capable to do exactly what they are looking for.

    Hi Emilie,

    Thank you. The best tips I got from this book was the toss bouquet, instead of buying one, you can save money by using the bride bouquet. Transportation tip was to "get a limo to transport myself, my mom and attendants to the ceremony and for myself and my future husband to the reception to save money." I have used it to help with asking questions that are in the book for the vendor that I saw for the cake tasting, adding contact informaton in the book, writing out the budget and understanding the roles and responsiblity of cost between the bride, groom, my mom, his parents and the attendants. I like how everything is organized and how it easy to follow with the tips and making a good decisions on booking vendors. Smiley smile

    I hope you have a great evening.
