    Given the astronomical fees being charged by photographers, videographers, and wedding coordinators, I can’t imagine tipping them on top of $3000-$5000 “starting fee” for the services rendered. And I say this being a generous tipper. At any rate that makes hiring a coordinator a non-starter. 😢

    This was a helpful video - thanks! Very informative and helped me think through some things. In case no one has ever pointed it out to you and it could be helpful to your future vids, you have an interesting volume level in your voice. Your voice goes from lots of volume where you are clearly heard (and where I question my volume level), to finishing your sentences very quietly and super hard to hear. Just mentioning since feedback can be helpful. Have a good day!

    I attended a wedding where they had a dietary requirements table... everyone with allergies or intolerances were sat together. We laughed about it, and I'm sure it was very convenient for the venue, but it also did feel a little awkward. (The food was amazing though!) Another thing to consider is that one friend who is single and doesn't know anyone else at the wedding. That happened to me and my friend had arranged her friend's to 'look after me' which i was infinitely grateful for. Not easy going to a wedding like that!

    100% agree! If you've got a saturday wedding, you should be getting the flowers on Wednesday. Use that day to condition them, then thursday and friday for arranging them. Some flowers like roses also need time to open up too!

    Hey, I want to get married with my girlfriend and I just started to look information less than a week ago And what I got so far and I think is just what I need … 1. Propose to her 2. We both go to the city clerk to get our marriage license 3. Request an appointment for the ceremony so we can get married on a courthouse because we are really in a budget… we planning on doing something but later But I’m a little bit confused filling the form Because he asked, where are you getting married? Where? And who is going to be performing the ceremony… So I’m a little bit confused on how should I fill that part if I want to get married in a court, if you can explain, how would I work? I would really appreciate it. Thank you for your videos that I really informative.

    "Reasonable" probably differs depending on who you're asking, but to me it would be anything like $120 and below.

    Popped the question recently and I'll admit it took a lot of courage, but I'm really happy I did. Haven't told anyone outside of our community, but I'm doing some research. Just super happy to be her knight in shining armor. Just want her to know that I'll protect and serve her the rest of my days ❤

    1. Discuss priorities. 2. Refine your vision by looking for inspiration. Define your Vision. Let it sit. Once you define it, stop looking. 3. Set a budget 4. Set a realistic timeline 5. Do not over research 6. Delegate 7. Go with your gut. 8. Communicate what you don’t want. 9. Make it personal. 10.
