Being by your friend’s side through all the highs and lows of the wedding planning process is something every good friend wants to say yes to. Calming her on the big day. Seeing the sweet but nervous smiles throughout the ceremony. Crying along with her as she exchanges vows with her soon to be spouse. We all want to support those closest to us and to be there when they need us most. But being able to afford bridesmaid these days…. It does not come cheap. In fact, it’s getting remarkably expensive. On average, it costs approximately $3K. We have found that many ladies just can’t afford it without forgoing paying rent or buying groceries.

We believe that wedding planning should be as fun and stress-free as possible and the best way to begin that process is to only hire professionals you trust. We know that it sounds obvious, but some couples end up regretting their vendor choices before the big day, or worse, they have unsatisfactory service on the big day or even after all is said and done. To avoid one of these horror stories of your own, keep an eye out for the following red flags when hiring wedding vendors.

We’re ALL about doing you in the wedding planning process, and skipping whatever doesn’t make you happy. Hate passed hors d’oeuvres? Toss them aside and do a taco station! Not into the parent-child dances? Go right into the Cupid Shuffle! But the one non-negotiable element of having a wedding, besides making it legal, is expressing your gratitude via thank you notes.

Your wedding day is meant to be one of the happiest and most important days of your life. You’ve spent months planning every detail and spent thousands of dollars to achieve the perfect day you’ve always envisioned. Despite how meticulously you’ve planned everything out, there’s always the possibility that something will go wrong. Perhaps a tropical storm hits the beach you’re supposed to have your destination wedding on. Or your maid of honor slipped and broke her wrist days before the wedding. For these kinds of instances, wedding insurance is the best way to protect you from losing your entire financial investment.

The prospect of marrying the love of your life should be seen as a fun adventure, and for Megan and Darin, it was just that. They met at work, but it was their mutual love for games that truly brought them together. As their relationship grew as their passion for plants and gardening did as well. It seemed only natural that they would want to incorporate their two mutual passions into one extraordinary event.

Having a wedding is one of the first times you and your partner will play “host” together, meaning your guests’ comfort and enjoyment is a top priority. From deciding who to invite and telling them what to wear to making sure they feel at home, navigating the world of wedding guest etiquette can be a little tricky, which is why we’ve rounded up some of the biggest questions you might be asking and provided expert answers!

Your wedding is day is one you’ll remember for the rest of your life. With that in mind, many couples choose to go big with the wedding dress, rings, food, flowers, and decor. This is likely why the average wedding we plan costs around $35K to $45K. You’re planning to spend over tens of thousands of dollars or more for your dream wedding. It makes sense to purchase insurance that can reimburse you if parts of your wedding don’t go as planned or if your event must be canceled or postponed.
