Zebra & Caribbean Blue Baby Shower

Zebra & Caribbean Blue Baby Shower
 
On Saturday December 17, 2011 I had the pleasure and honor of seeing my client's vision for a "Zebra & Caribbean Blue Baby Shower" come to fruition. After spending over 2 months planning, organizing, designing, and overcoming obstacles it was well worth the time, effort, and patience that was put into the planning and execution of the event. I always say that my favorite part of any event is when I see my client's smile and their tears of joy, because that tells me I have not only met but exceeded their expectations and brought "Joy and Faith to their Special Occasion.

Wedding Cost: Who's Responsible

Wedding Cost: Who's Responsible?
 
 
Tradition has it the Bride's Parents pay for the bulk of the wedding. In the 21st Century that tradition still holds some weight, but it depends on several factor, e.g. if and how much the bride's parents are willing to contribute, if the bride and groom are contributing to the cost, if the groom's parents have decided whether or not they will be contributing, if either set of parents are financially stable to contribute, and the type of wedding the bride and groom desire to have.

Bachelor(ette) Recovery Kit

Last night you and your bridal party definitely "Party Like A Rock Stars." By the end of the night all of you were completely wasted aftervisiting several bars and having a couple of martinis, mimosas, and jell-o shots. You get in about 3am and decide to have a bottle of wine. Not a Great Idea. Everyone passes out in bout an hour leaving you with only four hours of sleep. When you wake up to get ready for hair, make-up, and the works you have a pounding headache, upset stomach, and vage memory of what took place last night.

Co-Ed Bachelor/Bachelorette Party: Is It The Norm??

Co-Ed Bachelor/Bachelorette Party:
Is It The Norm??
 
 
A lot has changed during the 21st century from technology to couples having Jack and Jill Baby Showers to Co-Ed Bachelor/Bachelorette Parties. When you think of tradition it states that the bride and groom can't see each other before the ceremony on their wedding and that they must go their separate ways after the wedding rehearsal to celebrate their last night as a "Free Man" or "Free Woman." But in the 21st Century some Brides and Grooms are kicking tradition and starting their own by celebrating their last night as "Free Man" and "Free Woman" together.

The time has come to plan your last night on the town. Just so happen you are having brunch with your mom and maid of honor. Your mom is very persistent that you should have a conservative bridal shower, which you feel will be very dull and unadventurous. Your maid of honor makes a few suggestions but your mother won't hardly let you get a word in edge way because she has so many ideas.
 
Does this sound like you? I have been presented with this scenario and similar questions many times.

Greetings From Joiful Faith Event Planning, LLC. Hope all is well and you are having a blessed and wonderful day.
 
Birthdays, bridal showers, sweet sixteens, 50th anniversary, weddings, and receptions look so effortless, relaxed, and magnificent that it is easy for a guest to think that they can plan their special occasion and have the same outcome. That can be a BIG MISTAKE because the guest overlooks the hours and hours of brainstorming, planning, preparation, meetings and all the other details and logistics that went into planning the celebration.

Should I Hire an Event Planner?

Should I Hire an Event Planner?
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Many times I get asked why do I need to hire an Event Planner to plan my son's birthday party. Why do I need an Event Planner to plan my daughter's bridal shower? Why do I need to hire an Event Planner when I can be a "Do-It-Yourself (DIY)" Bride and save money?
 
If you are able to plan and organize your son's birthday party, your daughter's bridal shower, or plan your wedding completely stress-free from the moment you select your event date till' the end of the celebration when you are thanking your guest for coming then you do not need an event planner.
