When To......

Help is on the way, dear!

Planning getting you down?

Let me help! I've gone ahead and made up a spreadsheet to help you keep track of all your bookings and to help you stick to your budget. In my excel spreadsheet, you can record the deposits you've paid and see your total balance owing. There is also space for important notes and adding in additional vendors if I've forgotten anyone. Visual aids like this help to ensure you don't double book services and can stick to your budget. Gee, thanks Gab! You're such a life saver! (Yeah, I know).

Ceremony Song Suggestions

Choosing the perfect song for your ceremony can set the tone and make your walk down the aisle unforgettable. I've created a Spotify playlist with some beautiful suggestions to inspire you! Be sure to pick a song that resonates with you and your partner, and captures the vibe of your special day. Feel free to choose the original, an acoustic cover or even an instrumental version of your favourite song.

Timeline Examples

Timelines are one of those things that really are just a guide — but they’re a helpful guide, nonetheless. They help you navigate your busy day, make sure you’ve allocated enough time for everything you have planned, and give you a clear idea of what to prioritise if things don’t quite go to schedule and you fall behind.
