Realities of Wedding Planning

So I have learned some things over the past few months in working with the wedding party...I learned I need to ask specific questions to find out what is the most important thing to the bride. After all, it is her special day and my job is to make sure her day is most special without too much drama or stress. Find out the top 3 important items and focus on those.

I have learned delegating can be fun...as a part of my coordinator duties, I am to keep everything on track, but that does not mean I have to do everything myself. Others involved are willing to participate when asked. This is a very good thing!

And lastly, I have learned the gift of encouragement plays a truly important role during this time. When everyone is anxious and stressed out, I can be a constant that keeps everything together. Since I am not vested emotionally in the situation, it is easier for me to encourage everyone and keep things running smooth. Phil 4:6

Watkins/Lucero Wedding




The wedding I planned last year was a real joy! One of my best friends, who met her soulmate by leading a small group at church together (I take the credit, I brought her to church!), married in October. They are wonderful, beautiful people and I love them dearly...here are some pictures from the beautiful wedding they had at her home.
