    Jul 14 2020
    What does dress shopping look like in the...wait for it..."new normal?" Can you still get your dress in time if the pandemic put you on hold? What about alterations? What is my timeline looking like for that now, too? These are just a few of the questions Erin (owner of Eva's and Evermore Bridal) and I went through. She explained why brides don't need to panic or rush in this time of uncertainty and that the dress-shopping experience is still memorable and fun...just with a few more safety precautions!

    Postponed or Canceled - How to Know What to Do If COVID-19 Affects Your Wedding
    Mar 23 2020
    Due to the unfortunate circumstances of COVID-19, a lot of weddings have to be postponed or canceled. Couples are facing decisions and stress they never even thought was possible, and that's why we had to pull in a professional to give you a step-by-step guide on how to know if COVID-19 could affect your wedding and what to do.

    I talked with my friend, Mandy, who had to make this decision herself. She shares how her and her fiance made the call and how they're coping with the idea of "planning" all over again.

    In addition, I pulled in Wedding Planner, Heather Farr, from Heather Farr Events to guide us through the process of postponing a wedding and what is the best way to handle something like this.

    I've never gotten married before, and I'm only planning on getting married once. That's the thought process most people have going into their big day. Since we have little to no experience with planning a wedding, word-of-mouth becomes a HUGE help. That's why I turned to my coworker, Dave, when it came to wedding DJs because *spoiler alert* - he is one. Dave talks about the process of researching, asking questions and booking your wedding DJ!

    Dec 3 2019
    The dress is probably one of the most (if not THE most) thought about thing regarding your wedding. We're almost "trained" to dream about that piece of the puzzle with shows like, "Say Yes to the Dress." Sometimes finding your dress won't be one of those teary-eyed moments or you'll go with something completely different than you originally thought you would.

    In my conversation with Erin, Owner of Eva's and Evermore Bridal, she discusses the importance of openness with your consultant, what you can do to make sure your wedding dress experience is memorable and so much more!

    Nov 18 2019
    Do they have a "Flowers for Dummies" book?! When it came to the start of wedding planning, I had no idea what kind of flowers I wanted and what kind of budget I was working with. Thankfully, I was lucky enough to find a florist who could talk me through EVERY little detail and really help me gauge what I wanted. So, I figured - she might be of some use to you, too!! Sarah Geboy, Owner of Avant Garden Florist in Delafield, WI, and I talked about endless opportunities with wedding floral - is it better/cheaper to go with fake flowers? Should I consider an online service? Is Pinterest really a good place for inspiration? We cover all that and more!!
