Wedding footwear- but make it comfy! Brides are on Wedding footwear- but make it comfy! Brides are on their feet all day and the last thing you want to be worrying about is painful feet. Whether you wear them all day or switch them out for photos, sneakers are a wonderful way to make sure you’re focusing on the good stuff on your big day. Plus- they’re easier to dance in! 💃🏼💕 #weddingtipwednesday

When you can't bring glass onto the guest buses bu When you can't bring glass onto the guest buses but you want to celebrate after the ceremony......you individually wrap straws and attach them to prosecco cans!  It was a tough job but someone had to taste a lot of varieties of canned prosecco  to find the right one (and of course the colors had to coordinate with the wedding)!
Today was signage day!! Another way to personalize Today was signage day!! Another way to personalize your wedding and let your guests know cake flavors and late night snacks (for allergies), what is in your specialty drink, favors, and much more!  I like to make sure the colors and overall look is consistent throughout so in this case the background on the signs matches the inner lining of the envelope from the invitation. Keep in mind different sizing for different purposes: These signs were then framed in the perfectly sized gold frames!
Happy Easter!! Sometimes the groom's attire takes Happy Easter!! Sometimes the groom's attire takes a back seat to the bridal gown but why not make his suit personalized and all about him?! His initials, the wedding date, and his name embroidered on the collar make him feel as special as he should on his wedding day. I loved helping my favorite (and only) future son-in-law curate his look to be exactly what he wanted! Stay tuned to see his full look on Saturday!
We at Effortless Events have quite the week ahead We at Effortless Events have quite the week ahead of us! This week, I am on double duty as wedding planner AND mother of the bride! I will be posting each day this week what happens when the planner becomes the MOB and offer my favorite tips and experiences to bring you on this journey with us!

Today, I am steaming my daughter and her bridesmaids' getting-ready-rompers! I frequently see brides get their girls getting-ready-robes, however, my daughter and her girls are getting ready at a resort and they may need to run back and forth to their rooms that morning. A romper leaves them covered and comfortable to walk around the hotel without worrying their robe will come untied and the girls will step in and out of them to not mess up their hair and makeup! Steaming will make these robes picture perfect! How cute are the on-theme cactus rompers for this Arizona wedding?!

See what fun task I will be doing tomorrow!
