We had the most spectacular time helping Gabriela and Chris plan their wedding.  Chris and Gabriela live in London and Gabriela is from El Salvador. The two of them travel the world on amazing adventures.  There were guests from 27 different countries in attendance at the wedding.  We hope you enjoy their amazing wedding weekend as much as we did!

The welcome party for the Guests was at the gorgeous beach front Marriott Singer Island!  On Saturday, the wedding ceremony was held at St. Ann Catholic Church in Downtown West Palm Beach.  The day was perfect!

After the ceremony we headed to the absolutely stunning Flagler Museum on Palm Beach for the reception. And what a party it was!  Every detail told the story of Gabriela and Chris's love story and the blending of their heritages. 

It was a true honor to be part of this incredibly emotional and special day!  We wish Gabriela and Chris a lifetime of love and adventures around the world!

A huge thank you to everyone who made this day a success!

Hi Y'all,  I hope everyone is enjoying this awesome fall weather (at least in Florida).  Wedding Season is ramping up and we can't wait for all of the amazing fall, winter and spring weddings coming up in the next few months!

A lot of people ask us what is the difference between Full Wedding Planning and a Day of Wedding Coordinator.  Many people think that hiring a full wedding planner is beyond their financial reach.  But that is not necessarily true.

Full Wedding Planner

Recommends vendors based on experience and their ability to deliver above and beyond service

Can sometimes help negotiate better pricing

Will understand the nuances of your family and family dynamics

Goes with you to planning meetings with other wedding pros to make sure your needs are communicated properly

Troubleshoots your wedding day and makes sure all things run smoothly

Knows that Uncle Bob only drinks Pepsi -not Coke - and makes sure his glass is never empty

Guides you through the etiquette of wedding planning

Makes sure no wedding details are overlooked throughout the planning process

Day of Wedding Coordinator

Creates your timeline of the day

Makes sure all wedding pros follow their contracts

Troubleshoots anything that pops up during the day

May NOT know the family dynamics and that Uncle Bob only drinks Pepsi and not Coke

Does NOT attend any vendor meetings or help negotiate contracts

Another thing to be wary of...many venues will say that they have an on-site wedding coordinator and that you don't need to hire one.  Ask your venue these questions - will their on-site coordinator stay at your wedding until the very last guest leaves? will their on-site coordinator help you with etiquette questions throughout the planning process - will their on-site coordinator create a master timeline for your entire wedding day/weekend- will their on-site coordinator deliver welcome baskets/bags to your out of town guests?  etc, etc, etc

Everyone has a job to do when planning a wedding. Our job is to create a magical day that you will never forget!  And to guide you through the process, help you understand the roles each pro plays in the wedding day and so much more!

We want your wedding to be a huge success.  So make informed decisions, do your research and remember that cheaper is not necessarily better.  You get what you pay for!

Hugs to all,

Jen,Mandi,Karlee and Jan
