DIY BRIDES :: DON'T OVER DO-IT-YOURSELF IT

I am a wedding planner. That's what I do. I plan weddings. That means that I see and hear a lot more about weddings and the stresses and successes and failures that come along with it. That's why brides hire me. For my expertise and guidance. It is because of my knowledge and my desire for all brides to have a wonderful planning experience that I feel it is necessary to embark on a new series, DIY Brides :: Don't Over Do-It-Yourself It.


Beginning Monday, January 12, 2009, I will explore one topic weekly that I will either give a thumbs-up or a thumbs-down to. Magazines, blogs, websites and other brides would have you believe that it is now blasphemous to (gasp) actually have a professional perform a service for your wedding. I'm going to let you know that it is okay to relax and enjoy your planning time without feeling the need to do everything yourself.


Keep in mind, these are my recommendations/suggestions. Each bride has different talents, free-time, artistic ability and tastes. So, I encourage you to use this series as a starting point of realization, if you will. Ask yourself what you can realistically take on. I'm thinking, when you create a DIY project, you want it to look presentable and, most importantly, you want to get compliments on it. You want it to enhance your day.

Stay tuned for what we have {in the plans}.
