February, Month of Love and Engagements-Building your wedding

Well, January is just about out the door and February is knocking to get in. February, the month of Love, happiness and engagements!

You wouldn't start planting a garden, building a building or making a birdhouse without plans. The same goes for wedding planning.

Many brides think that once they have the ceremony/reception venue, florist, caterer, officiant, musicians, etc. you are done. WRONG!!! You have just started on the road to a beautiful, wonderful, frustrating trip.

For every decision you make, there are 10 more. Pretty soon, you have all sorts of balloons floating around and you don't have the faintest idea of how to bring everything together. Enter your wedding coordinator!

This is what I do. I work with you to bring your ideas and drams to life (within your budget). Then I'm the one who gathers all the balloons together and on your wedding day you are presented with a beautiful, organized bouquet of balloons. The nice thing is you don't have to worry about where the balloons go or if they will float away. That's my job.

Even before you start dress shopping, your first stop should be at my website http://www.weddingsbytanya.com/ (or my office or email). Here you will get the basics to help build a good platform to start your preparations for your wedding.

While I am not the least expensive coordinator, I have the years of experience as well as the contacts to create the best team for your wedding day. You do get what you pay for.

On the 20th of January, I had the wonderful opportunity to perform a Planned Elopement (tm) at Crystal Peaks in Breckenridge. The day was beautiful (pics to follow) with over 90" of snow base, just outside the glass windows. The couple was from Texas and thoroughly enjoyed the winter wonderland. The rooms at Crystal Peaks are beautiful, complete with fireplace and balcony. Where better to have a romantic get-away?

I've also had the opportunity to meet and tour the beautiful Exquisite Salon and Spa. http://www.esquisitesalonandspa.com/ located in Littleton, CO. It's an exceptional salon and spa, offering every service you can possibly imagine. They have a beautiful room for private bridal parties to have manicures and pedicures as well as massages, etc. As an added bonus, mention you heard of them from my blog or Weddings, Etc. LLC and you'll receive $7 off your treatment!

Classes are starting again. Interested in learning to be a wedding/event coordinator? Check out http://www.weddingsbytanya.com/ The Art of Wedding Coordination.

Stay warm and HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY to everyone!
