I'm in the spotlight!
It's been a great week as the phones are ringing off the hook! It's nice to be recognized and wanted! I've booked with three great couples this week. I still have a few dates available as I have to limit the number of weddings I do since I do each and every wedding/event myself.
I'm also booking elopements, which I enjoy doing as well.
It's hard to realize that February is almost over! A donation will be made to the Heart Association, this month, in the names of the new clients I've signed.
The charity to receive donations for March will be The Boys and Girls Club.

Grooms' Corner
Today's grooms are more savey than in the past. They want to (or should) be involved in the wedding planning. Gone are the days when a groom just showed up, said "I do" and was done.
This is a groom's day as well as the bride's. Eventhough the focus is on the bride, there is as much emotion on the groom's part. This is your wedding day as well and you should feel like you can contribute if there's something you feel you'd like to say.
For example, if you have a female friend who means a lot and has been close, why not ask her to stand as your honor attendant. Nothing says you have to have a best man! Yes, she should dress like the other bridesmaids and carry a bouquet or something similar to the bridesmaids.
What if you have a special color you'd like included? Tell you bride about it and see if it can't be incorporated. (However, please understand not all brides are into NFL,NBA or MLB colors!!!!)
Drop hints as to what you might like to have if your bride decides to surprise you with a groom's cake. Don't like cake? I've had icecream cakes made to take the place of the cake.
Let your bride know your thoughts. She may not take all your suggestions, but I'm sure she'll be glad to hear you are interested in the planning.
Many groom's don't think a wedding coordinator is necessary, but let me recommend that if you want your bride, FMIL and your family to enjoy the day, you'll be the first to suggest it. Having a good coordinator is invaluable when it comes to figuring out complex issues such as blended families, working in children from a previous marriage, working out compromises between the two of you and families; and in helping you to have a stress and worry free day.
Have questions? I'm happy to help you from helping plan your proposal to any questions regardin wedding planning. Just email me at tanya@weddingsbytanya.com or call me at 303-779-0395. (I not only do weddings in Colorado, but am available to help plan and travel to your destination site.)
One last note if you just got engaged, consider giving your fiance a copy of my book WEDDING PLANNING GUIDE, A Bride's Workbook(c). It will make both your jobs easier! To order, email me or give me a call at 303-779-0395.
Have a great summer!

Groom's Corner
I've decided to devote a corner of my blog to grooms. Watch each month for more tips. Here's the first addition.
GROOM’S CORNER
Groom’s have long felt that their place, in wedding planning, has been to dress up and show up. Guess what!!!!
This has changed.
Today’s modern groom realizes that his ideas and desires are also important. Gone are the days when the bride makes all the decisions, especially since more and more couples are paying for their own weddings.
What then should a groom plan on? First off, what is a groom responsible for?
Let’s start with the proposal. How and when generally puts a man into a cold sweat. Don’t worry, I’m here to help. Whether you want something simple, like a picnic in the park, or something complex, such as a trip to Hawaii, Las Vegas, Paris, I can also handle all the details to make it a perfect moment for the two of you. And, don’t forget the photographer and videographer. You want to capture each moment and emotion so you can add these to your wedding album and wedding video.
Now, what kind of ring do you want to give your special lady? It can be a diamond, colored diamond, a pearl, birthstone, actually any gemstone that may peak her fancy. Size? Some people will say you need to spend the equivalent to two month’s pay. Let common sense be your guide. Spend what you can afford. Keep in mind that if you purchase a beautiful, top grade quarter diamond, on your fifth, tenth, fifteenth or twentieth anniversary, you can surprise your bride with an upgrade to a larger stone. It’s the thought that counts, not the size. If your lady is more concerned about the size and how much is spent, take a step back and reassess your situation. Keep in mind the Four C’s – Carets, Color, Clarity and Cut. (For a wonderful resource, before buying a diamond, read How to Buy A Diamond by Fred Cuellar.)
Should your lady pick out the ring? If you want to surprise her, you can casually ask what she likes, maybe during a shopping trip, to get ideas. Before purchasing a ring, ask the jeweler about return policies if she doesn’t care for the mounting. In this case, present the ring, then the two of you go back to the store and she can select a mounting more to her liking. (I’ve actually orchestrated a proposal where the jeweler brought the ring to be presented with the understanding if she liked it, the groom would be purchasing it. If she didn’t like it, then the two of them would go into the store to select one she did like.)
If you want your bride to be to select her own ring, visit the jeweler ahead of time to talk with them about how much you want to spend so they will show rings only within the price range. Select your jeweler as you would a doctor. You want someone you can build a relationship with, as you will, no doubt, be purchasing additional jewelry items throughout your lifetime. You want someone you can trust, who you know will listen to what you want and who you know will deal upfront and honestly with you.
Okay, you’ve gotten down on one knee, popped the question, and she said yes…now what?
Here’s a list of what, traditionally, the groom and his family is responsible for…
Brides engagement/wedding rings.
Marriage License.
Ceremony official's fee (many times the bride’s family will pay this as well.)
(Going-away corsage for the bride if leaving directly on their honeymoon.)
Wedding gift for bride.
Gifts for best man and ushers
Wedding night suite
Rehearsal dinner
Honeymoon
Blood tests
Gloves, ties, and ascots for men in wedding party.
Attendants pay for:
Personal wedding attire.
Personal traveling expenses.
Personal hotel expenses
Why should you and your bride consider hiring a wedding coordinator?
Let me distinguish between a site coordinator (hotel wedding coordinator) and what I do. The hotel or site coordinator is just that. They are there for the benefit of the venue. I, on the other hand, am there to assist you and your bride with your planning by recommending qualified and proven vendors, working with you to figure out what to give your attendants, groomsmen, and even assist finding the right gift for your bride. I work with you both to be sure everything is in the order you want your day to be and then am on site to make sure it happens.
During your planning process, I’m available to assist with any questions, help you find a good tux shop, and even recommend a honeymoon spot.
Another important item I, as your wedding coordinator, do is to supply an extensive emergency kit. Buttons fall off, shirt necks don’t always fit or one of the groomsmen may have forgotten to brush his teeth. I can take care of all these things plus many more.
A good wedding coordinator is available to the groom as much as the bride. Groom’s love to surprise their brides with a lovely card, note or letter on their wedding day and I can be your “postman” to deliver it.
Have more questions about being a groom? Call me at 303-779-0395 or email me at tporterweddsetc@hotmail. I’m always happy to meet you over coffee, the lunch hour, after hours to assist you any way I can to allow you to enjoy your engagement and wedding planning process.
Yes, grooms, you are a very important part of the wedding…remember it’s your wedding too!!!

2008 Wedding Trends
2008 Wedding Trends
What’s hot and what’s not?
Colors are beautiful this year. Blues, in any shade, are very strong, especially when paired with metalliacs such as gold, silver, gray and platinum. Bold jewel tones are no longer just for the Fall and Winter weddings, but are making very bold statements. Most popular are the rich purples (purple in any shade is good), golds, oranges, and reds.
The hottest color for next season is purple from pale lavender to deep eggplant. Black, plum and navy, latte, coral and lavender, mauve, sage and turquoise, emerald, burgundy and chocolate are all the colors for the next four seasons. You will be seeing more use of floral and geometric patterns and a heavy emphasis on shiny metallics.
A European trend is gaining popularity here in the U.S. That is to choose deep, rich colors for their own wedding dresses as well as the bridesmaids. Traditional white will hold it’s top spot, but will pick up the color in smart accent details. Sashes, ribbons and embroidered detailing in fantastic colors will be seen on wedding dresses and complimented by everything from the choice of stationary, linens, added décor and even the wedding cake.
Look for multi-layers of fabric, including tinted multi-layered voile and chiffon. Chic brides will turn to colored crinoline underskirts and accent colors featured on the soles of their bridal shoes. (As an aside, for fun, have each bridesmaid sign the soles of your shoes and the name that shows the brightest at the end of the reception will be the next to get married!)
Vintage is in. Look for influences from the glory days of Hollywood and beyond. Romance is very evident in halter necklines, capelet sleeves, light and airy styles, strapless gowns, plunging necklines, antique lace, stain ribbons for straps, ruffles, tea length dresses in Spring and Summer (great for destination weddings as well as morning or afternoon weddings), diamond or crystal or rhinestone accessories, open-toed stilettos and dangling earrings. (If you can’t find what you like at the store, contact www.lesliesarts.com for custom make jewelry.)
“Green” weddings are gaining popularity. Brides are choosing to use their dollars to “give back”, using products such as recycled paper invitations (those made with flower seed imbedded are wonderful as your guests can “plant” their invitations and they add beauty to any garden). Brides are utilizing more local organic foods, antioxidant free meats, pesticide free floral and even dresses made from natural fibers.
Color plays a big part in all parts of your wedding, but especially in the décor. Reception décor is gaining speed in moving to a bold color pallet. Your room will “POP” with color and your guests will love it.
Personalizing more, items such as monograms, family heirlooms etc. are in vogue.
Next year – look for a modern twist to classic ideas.
Couples are turning from the round table look to the square tables, using vintage accents, international and ethnic themes.
Signature drinks and family recipes are in. Work with your caterer to come up with a signature drink that can be served either with or without alcohol. More couples are working in ethnic dishes, sometimes even providing a special recipe to the caterer.
An elegant idea to add to the cocktail is the addition of ports and cheeses along delicious chocolate treats, which never go out of style!
More and more couples are cutting their guest lists to 75-100 of their closest friends and family. With wedding costs coming close to $150 per person, the wow factor gets much larger with fewer guests.

Engagements
HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY! Tis the season of love!
Many couples will take advantage of the theme of the day to express their love and get engaged.
Take time to enjoy being engaged. Don't feel like you have to rush to the phone and start asking people to be part of your wedding party. Think this through first! Let the joy and fantastic feeling of being engaged sink in. Hopefully your parents will throw an Engagement Party. If they don't or don't live close enough, through one yourselves. Let your friends and family share in your joy.
One of the first things a bride-to-be should do is locate and hire a good wedding coordinator. Start your planning process out with little stress and the knowledge that you and your plans are in good hands.
When you do get ready to start planning, take a look at www.weddingsbytanya.com. I'm more than happy to work with you no matter where you are! 303-779-0395
Be sure to check out the WEDDING PLANNING GUIDE, A Bride's Workbook...one of the most complete and easy to use guides on the market.

To hire a coordinator or not to--that is the question.
Why hire a wedding designer/coordinator?
You’ve started planning your wedding and the first thing you run into is the wedding coordinator at the venue you’ve chosen. Why then do you need to hire a wedding coordinator if one is already in the package?
What is the difference between a hotel wedding coordinator, a church wedding coordinator, a site wedding coordinator and a wedding coordinator?
A site coordinator is just that…they are there for the venue, whether it’s the church or hotel. They are there on behalf of the site to make sure the site is treated with respect and that the rules of the venue are followed. What they don’t do is sew on missing buttons, remove stains, supply black socks if a groomsman forgets his.
A wedding coordinator is someone you’ve worked with during the entire planning process and have come to trust. We know what you want, what your dream is and strive to make it happen.
Is hiring a wedding designer/coordinator worth the money? To be honest, I’m always hearing brides say that they wished they would have done it then maybe things would have run smoother, or they would have enjoyed their day.
A wedding designer/coordinator doesn’t have to be certified. Anyone can decide they want to plan weddings and set up shop. What being certified means is that the coordinator cared enough to get further training and the certificate shows they did. There are many organizations that offer certificates, including the one I’ve founded Trained Wedding Professionals, which offers the course “The Art of Wedding Coordination”. It never hurts to ask if the person you are considering has taken a course.
A wedding designer/coordinator will also work closely with your vendors so you don’t have to worry about them doing their job. It takes a team to have a successful wedding/event and a good coordinator knows how to make this happen.
Is it money well spent? This is something you need to decide for yourself. Don’t be afraid to ask for references then call them. Past clients will give you the most honest feedback you can get. Make your decision based on the experience of the coordinator as well as how they make you feel. Do they listen to you or do they try to tell you what they think you need? Do they make you feel at ease? If so, you’ve probably found the right person to entrust your wedding day to.
Need more information? Call 303-779-0395, e-mail tporterweddsetc@hotmail.com or go to www.weddingsbytanya.com. We’re happy to take calls and appointments after hours and week-ends to fit your schedule.

Don't want to wear a veil?
For the bride, who may be getting remarried, more mature, or just doesn't want to wear a veil, you might consider flowers.
Flowers can be worn in the hair as a hair band, wreath, or a beautiful single flower behind your ear. They not only add a romantic note to your wedding, but they can also add color.
Flowers add so much to a wedding. Consider carrying a single flower, having a wrap made of flowers around your shoulders, carry a "kissing ball" or maybe having your groom present you with a single rose once you reach the altar.
Did you know that in the Victorian times, flowers actually would spell out messages? Gentlemen would give specific flowers to show love, friendship etc. A bride might carry the flowers that "spelled" I love you.
Need more ideas? I help my brides come up with unique ideas and something that will make their wedding their own. Reach me through tanya@weddingsbytanya.com or visit my website at http://www.weddingsbytanya.com/. (I'm happy to work with you no matter where you are. I'm available to travel.)
