Trash The Dress Craze

One of the most popular trends in wedding photography is “Trash The Dress” where brides can take unique photos while saying bye-bye to the wedding gown.

As you can see, some of the pictures can be dynamic while others are downright ridiculous. Photographers who want that one last wow picture will foam at the mouth at a bride's willingness to take these daring shots. We all have a desire to be Top Model for a day, but I have to ask, is it really worth it? Wouldn't it be better to donate that dress to a bride who can't afford a nice dress? I mean some of these gowns average thousands of dollars. I'm not knocking "Trash The Dress"; I actually love the concept, but I think a wedding gown could be put to better use. What do you think?

Bad Weather Woes

You spend countless hours planning this fabulous event and BOOM! — the inevitable happens. You have 80% rain chances all day accompanied by dangerous lightening, hail and maybe a tornado here or there. What happens next? You start to panic because you neglected to hire a professional planner to help you with your bad weather plan—just kidding. During a disaster is not the time to create your bad weather plan. So, while you are planning your event, ask yourself the following questions:


Is my event venue in a low-lying area prone to flooding? Your guests will be ticked-off if they leave your event and have to retrieve their vehicles from Sea World.

What is the venue’s back-up plan if the facility loses power? Generators I hope!

What will be the back-up plan if you have to cancel and notify all 300 close friends and family? Common sense would keep them away but you always have the ride-or-die crew who just want to party.

What’s the weather like in your locality during the time of year that you will have your event?

Stay safe!

The Oscars And Your Wedding Day

Oscar night is probably the most exciting yet stress moments for nominees hoping to stand on stage with that gleaming golden figure which confirms that hard work and dedication will eventually pay-off.  Oscar winners are often deprived of that once in a lifetime experience of “living in the moment” because they are often cued to hurry-up and make their acceptance speeches.  Sadly, many brides are also deprived of the feeling of “living in the moment” because they are too preoccupied with wanting everything to be perfect.  Brides, please don’t cheat yourself out of the once in a lifetime feeling of marrying your true love.  Hire professionals and keep in mind the true purpose of your wedding day.  If you hire professionals, everything else will fall into place.  Call us today to discuss how we can help you "live in the moment" on your special day.  (757) 538-1968.
