I often receive calls from Brides who have been engaged for just a few days. They’re gazing lovingly at their brand-spanking-new diamond, overwhelmed by a stack of bridal magazines and wondering where to begin. If this sounds like your current predicament, keep reading! Help is ahead! While it’s not as exciting as dress shopping, venue tours, or Pinterest marathons, penning a guest list for your big day is THE place to start. Why? Nearly every element of your wedding is affec

Thanks to everyone who has been following our “Brides Ask Why” series!  In these posts, I’ve been sharing the answers to commonly ask questions that I receive from EEP Events wedding clients. Today’s question is often raised during my consultation process.  As I’m describing the services I offer as a wedding planner and coordinator, the Bride often admits that she assumed her Catering Manager (or Venue Manager) would take care of many of those tasks.

Our team returned just a few days ago from spectacular Cabo San Lucas, and we’re already anxious to go back and produce more weddings in this beautiful resort city! If you’re envisioning a small, intimate wedding celebration with a beautiful beach as your backdrop, we definitely recommend Cabo as your destination! During this particular visit, we stayed at the Pueblo Bonito Blanco resort. The resort’s beach front property on Medano Beach places offers a premier view of the mo

My answer: absolutely!  None of my clients who have invested in videography have regretted spending that money.  To the contrary, their appreciation of their own wedding video only grows as time passes.  As with any memory, over time you will lose some of the details of your wedding day in your mind’s eye.  During your honeymoon, you may vividly recall the special words that your parents and friends shared in their wedding toasts.  But years later, many of those moments will
