5 Ways "NOT" to be a Bridezilla!!!

Today's post is for the Bride that is planning her wedding and beginning to feel overwhelmed, but does not want to become a Bridezilla. Have you seen the show? Bride's are yelling at their friends, their parents and even their fiance!! Being a Bridezilla happens for one main reason: STRESS!!!

Here's 5 Ways "NOT" to be a Bridezilla:

• #1) Hire an Experienced Professional Wedding Planner! ;-) {If you know me and know that I know Wedding Planning, then you knew this would be #1 on the list!! Having a Professional Wedding Planner that matches your needs and wants alleviates a lot of wedding planning stress and allows you to have an enjoyable wedding day!}

• #2) Make a Spa Date! {The Spa is very relaxing..take a Saturday morning with just you and your hunny enjoy a couples spa/brunch date!! You can talk wedding or just talk about life..I will leave the convo choice up to you, but whatever you decide it needs to be relaxing.}

• #3) Keep a binder! {Whether you have a Wedding Planner or not you should have some kind of check-off list that will keep you in the know and on schedule. Planning a wedding takes a lot of work so this organizational binder will be a stress savor!!}

• #4) Have a Girls Night Out! {Take all your bridesmaids and have a girls night out! Tonight, no wedding talk is allowed. Take this time to laugh, get dressed up, get to know each other and relax! This is crucial for the ladies because to often I see friendships crash and burn because of the stress of planning a wedding.}

• #5) Hire an Experienced Professional Wedding Planner!!! {YES! I am inserting this again, because it truly is that important and no longer a luxury but now a necessity to have an amazing planning experience and most importantly a stress free happy wedding day! You, your fiance, friends and family all deserve and want to enjoy the wedding day..so leave the frenzy & stress of wedding day to the pros and truly enjoy!!}

There is no need to be a Bridezilla! Being mean and nasty to those around you that only wish to help you is just not okay. Stress is natural and does come with planning a wedding. However, there are many ways to alleviate that stress like the suggestions above! Take time to relax and truly enjoy the planning process and have a memorable wedding day.

2 Rules You Must Apply When Contacting #Wedding Vendors!!

Happy #WeddingWednesday!! Today's post is short & sweet, hope you enjoy!!

When searching for Wedding Vendors here are two rules you should always apply:

1. Honesty: Be honest about your wedding budget! (Wedding Vendors are not here to just simply raise the prices because you have decided to say "I Do'!! There is more work that goes into planning the wedding that happens pre and post wedding day that is the reasoning behind the price difference from a party or special event. Honesty is key!)
2.  Communication: Communicate if you wish to "not" use their services! (Calling a vendor and asking important questions is key to finding the perfect vendor; it's a crucial must. It is also very important that you call or email each vendor back to let them know that you have found a perfect match and that it is not them. If calling seems hard, a simple 3 liner email will do it justice. Leave a smiley face at the end and keep it nice. I guarantee wedding vendors will appreciate it!)

**Memo to Vendors**: When potential clients call or email you back that you didn't make the cut, be sure to replay back in a positive way! Couples have a ton of choices to choose from and all that should matter at the end of the day is that, that potential client will have a wedding vendor there to provide them a service! So be polite and wish them a successful Wedding Day.

Talk To Me:

Do you find it hard to tell wedding vendor your wedding budget? Why or Why Not? Do you find it hard to tell wedding vendors that you do not want to use their services? Why or Why Not? Are you married or planning your wedding? If so, how did you tell the other vendors that you do not need their services? Share your story and comments below in the comment section! Would love to chat with you! :-D

"Pin It" at Your Own Risk!

Pinterest...today's post is about Pinterest!! I was sucked into Pinterest about a month back..it did take me a long time before I jumped on the train and checked out all that it has to offer. Pinterest provides a place of sharing pics that you love and want others to see and enjoy!! It's really an awesome place to be apart of.

Recently it was brought to the light that Pinterest has become or "has always been" a "Pin It At Your Own Risk" kind of sight. Many of you, like myself did not read the fine print. Well, it is so important that we as Wedding Pros, Brides, Grooms, fashion gurus, Moms and Pinterest lovers around the world must read the fine print. A photog created a post giving the details of why she deleted her Pinterest Account. This post is definitely a must read because she really breaks down the legal meaning so you can make your "Pin It at your own risk" decision on your own.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Here are a few other great post to educate you on the whole pinning legality discussion:

• How Brands Can Use Pinterest Without Breaking The Law
• Pinterest and Copyright: What I'm Doing
• A Word of Caution for Pinterest Users   

So take the time to read and truly educate yourself on this important discussion. 

As for me and my Pinterest..I have not decided to delete my account, but I am going to take the time to delete some boards and make sure I am sticking to the rules!! I stopped pinning for about 2 weeks or so because of this and last night I started again. I am "pinning at my own risk", but trying to make sure I follow all the rules while doing so! 

So read, read and read so more and decide if you will be "pinning at your own risk" or simply deleting your account!
