Telling the story of the wedding day begins with the getting ready details. From the engagement ring to the invitation -to everything in between. It is a great way to begin a new chapter. Embroidery scissors are decorative and I often like to use chiffon ribbon to tie the look all together.

Personalized gifts are always a great idea! And with warmer weather, everyone starts traveling again. How about a unique bag for Mother’s Day and Father’s Day? Here in Cincinnati, we are ready to play some baseball or go on an overnight shopping weekend with the girls. Going to a graduation or wedding shower? This year is already in full celebration mode! A special thank you to Joe from Groovy Guy Gifts for partnering with us for this post.

I like to meet with my couples about a month before their wedding to finalize their schedule and locations. It’s also great when my couples bring a vendor list. This list has all of the contact information for all of your wedding day professionals. So many of my couples have such beautiful details that I always am asked where they found something or who they used. The other benefit of such a list is that it keeps you organized with everyone’s information in one place. When it is time to finalize time and locations with all of your vendors you can pull out your handy list. At the rehearsal hand it over to your maid of honor in case any calls need to be made. If you would like to get started on yours early just send me an email and I will send you our list or feel free to copy the list below. It has a bunch of categories listed on it – or you can make your own. Don’t forget the fun things like who is doing your hair and makeup!
