    What do you call the board you are using?

  • @PeppermintAndCo
    @PeppermintAndCo10 ай бұрын

    It's usually called "Plastic sign board" - but it can also be "Corrugated Plastic Sheets Coroplast Sign Blank Board" - craft stores usually have it. I got mine from our local dollar store. Depending on how heavy the flowers are, plastic sheets can usually hold up it's shape better than cardboard when upright. :)

    Hi Brittany. You're right! It can get tricky! Scheduling will def help! During cocktail hour, you can start your meal. Depending on the venue, they can usually provide your dinner plated just for the two of you. Mix the entertainment in between while you take a break and have dinner and then go back around to take pics. :)

    They would. However, it depends on what you are using as dinner plates. If you are also using plastic with the same color and style, it will work, but if you are using real china/ceramic, it will not look cohesive. :)

    What do you do if some people have not RSVP to the wedding and you can’t get a hold of them? What’s the best way to go about that? And are tips really important? For which vendors?

  • @PeppermintAndCo
    @PeppermintAndCo2 жыл бұрын

    Hi Lea! It really depends on how close you are to the people who have not RSVPd yet. I would usually suggest to add a "notice number" on your email/text/voicemail. You can add towards the end of your message, that "as we are working closely with our caterers to ensure all guests are accounted for, after our third follow up notice, if we do not hear back, we will assume that you are not attending. Thank you for understanding.." usually this helps them understand what is happening. If they do not respond after your last notice then that's it. If they show up at the wedding still (hopefully not!), they know "what's up" so if they are squeezed in somewhere else, they know why. Hopefully this helps!

  • @Lounanora

    Thanks for the tips but the Flowers you are using look really cheap and fake there are fake flowers that look so natural that you have to touch them literally to know and sometimes even by touching them you’re not so sure.

  • @PeppermintAndCo
    @PeppermintAndCo2 жыл бұрын

    Hi Louna! Thanks for dropping by! I agree. There really is no getting around fake flowers. No matter how "high quality" it is described to be, at the end of the day, they are still fake, and that is the real (pun intended) problem. If given a choice, fresh flowers are always the way to go. However, since everyone has their own situation going, if they choose to use whichever fake flowers are easily available to them, these can certainly help it "look better" - as opposed to just not prepping them at all. 😀

    Hello Anime Goddess (love love your username!) In terms of decor, there really isn't a "must" unless you really want it! But depending on the width of the gazebo, it will help to put 2 floral arrangements on both sides. If the gazebo is narrow, you can put hanging silk flowers to add "dimension" 😀

    How do I talk to my family about budget/wedding costs?

  • @PeppermintAndCo
    @PeppermintAndCo2 жыл бұрын

    Hi Christine. Since the answer to this question is definitely depending on your situation - since you and your partner are the 2 people who know who in the family "might" bring up what and "most likely" to suggest something. So knowing those things, you can ease in the conversation with asking questions on "what they have in mind" and not deciding right at that moment. Listening and taking in as much info as you can will help you look at your current plan with your partner. This will also make everyone heard and a little less defensive. 😀
