THINGS TO KNOW
LET'S GET STARTED
invite list
Always create an A&B list! You don't need to invite everyone to your wedding, think of the nearest and dearest that you wish to be present.
assigned seating
Always, ALWAYS assign your guests to a table. Assigned seating is an added touch that your guests will enjoy, it’s not too much work and adds personalization!
remember...
the more people you invite, the more tables you need to dress which leads to an increase in floral, linen and rental costs. The best way to cost save? Be open to cutting your guestlist as necessary #foodforthought
do i need to give plus ones?
if your budget isn’t making it easy, no, you don’t! it’s your wedding, do what you like!
the wedding party
if you have a head table and your wedding party has been allotted a plus one, it’s always a nice gesture to allow them to sit with their guest.

WHEN TO DO WHAT
SAVE THE DATES
Four months prior to your wedding date. For destination weddings: 6 months to 1 year prior to your wedding date
INVITATIONS
2 months prior to your wedding date destination weddings: 3-4 months prior to your wedding date
VENDORS AND VENUE

(please inquire with us before approaching this on your own, this is what we’re here for!)
TYING IT ALL TOGETHER
Custom paper goods are the key to tying the look and style of your wedding into one cohesive design, don't underestimate the power of paper goods.
TRADITIONAL OR NOT?
Don’t feel obligated to keep traditional wedding customs. weddings today are about what YOU want.
TRUST
Trust is the most important thing when communicating with vendors. there is a reason that you have chosen to work with them, so TRUST that they will deliver, and more, on your wedding day!
DIY
DIY is not as easy as one may think. Some things should be left to professionals such as the floral design, save the diy for that cute little personalized cupcake topper or those lavendar satchel favor bags you always wanted to make. Activities surrounding a wedding are more suitable for DIY rather than the wedding itself.
YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR
In booking vendors, you get what you pay for, don’t cut corners in the wrong places! (ex: photographer + floral design)
