BBS Brides!

Last Fall, while attending the Bridal Benchmark Series, I met a very sweet bride-to-be! There are so many great things about the Bridal Benchmark Series, but meeting other brides and creating lasting friendships is one of the best!

A couple weekends ago, Anjelica, got married and I was there with her to share in her big day! She was one of the most beautiful brides I had ever seen, she was glowing! I helped Anjelica work on things to get prepared for their wedding, she even used some of the craft ideas we learned at Bridal Benchmark! It all turned out WONDERFULLY, her wedding was absolutely stunning!

I could not be happier for her and her hubby as they embark on an incredible journey together!

Congratulations, Anjelica!

The Big Night!

Chris and I have been thinking about where our guests are going to stay as well as where WE are going to stay after our wedding. (I mean, it is a pretty important night!) So we have met with a few different hotels. We live in Lexington, so it’s not like we know what these places look like, right? We contacted a few of the different hotels that have a good proximity to the ceremony/reception locations and made appointments for them to show us what type of rooms our guests will stay in and what kind of accommodations they have.

If you are unsure, like we were, of what the hotels in your area have to offer or how they will treat your guests, I encourage you to make an appointment to go see them!

Let me just say that we felt right at home with Summer Cooper at the Hilton Downtown. Summer knew her stuff and really made us feel welcome! There were honestly so many things that we hadn’t thought of for the evening, such as getting our guests home from the reception… or more importantly, getting us to the airport the next morning! The Hilton takes care of that!

The rooms were also very well-lit and spacious, perfect for if you are planning to get ready at your hotel before your ceremony! Also, if you still aren’t sure where to have your rehearsal dinner, check out the hotel! Summer told us we could come back for a free lunch to try the food there! (Most catering companies won’t even do that!)

The Hotel for the evening wasn’t one of the more important things on my list to get taken care of. Now that we have met with Summer, we are really excited about our out of town guests coming to stay! It’s just another great thing we have planned for our wedding!

Cathy & Tim: Winchester Wedding

This was a day full of joy, dancing, and broken bones. What?! Broken bones. That’s right. Both Cathy’s daughter and Tim’s son were rocking casts on their arms. How about that for wedding party symmetry? Cathy and Tim didn’t see each other until the ceremony but wanted to hold hands and have a picture around a corner before she walked down the aisle. It was a sweet moment. Cathy and Tim, thanks so much. You have a beautiful family! Vendors: Ceremony, Reception, Catering, Cake, Flowers: Winchester Opera House Hair and Make Up: Kathy Towles

Wedding Registry for Photography!

Sarah — Thu, 03 May 2012 14:51:14 +0000

When Vidy with Five By Five Photography & Design told me that she had a registry for Brides I got a little excited because it is totally genius! Photography, followed by video will be the two most important things you have left once the wedding is over.

The wedding photography gift registry is perfect for:

*couples who want to make the purchase of a photography collection more affordable

*couples who want to add an album or canvas print to their collection

*couples who already have everything for the home

Here is a bit more info in a FAQ style format, but this is definitely something to keep in mind!

Q: What is the cost of setting up a registry?

A: It is currently in the introductory stage and will be free if added to the package this year [2012]

Q: Will I need to pay the 50% retainer fee if I am setting up a registry?

A: Yes you will still need to pay the retainer fee and sign the contract to reserve your wedding date.

Q: How does a guest make a contribution to the wedding collection?

A: All purchases are made through Paypal via credit or debit card. The guest will receive an email confirmation once the payment goes through

Q: I’d love to be able to send my guests a thank you card after the wedding. How will I know who gifted what?

A: Five by Five will email each guest an electronic gift certificate for them to print and give you on your wedding day. It will include the amount purchased so you can send them a thank you card.

Q: How long will the registry remain open?

A: The final payment for the wedding photography collection is due 30 days prior to the wedding date. The registry will close at that 30 day mark and the couple will be responsible for paying the remaining balance.

Q: I would only like the registry to include an album or canvas. Is that ok?

A: Yup that’s totally ok! The registry is totally customizable to fit your needs.

Q: I would like the registry to include the Petite Collection AND an album. How would that work?

A: The couple will be required to pay in full for the wedding collection 30 days prior to the wedding. So they will need to cover the remaining balance which was not covered by the guests through the registry. We can specify if the guest is contributing towards an album or wedding collection in the registry. Anything gifted towards the album [or canvas] can be applied as credit after the wedding when we begin the album design process.

Q: I would love to add the album to the registry but can’t afford to fully purchase it right after the wedding.

A: No problem. I can hold on the the contributions made towards the album through the registry and then you can come back and purchase the album once you’re ready. The one year anniversary gift is the gift of paper. What would be more perfect than a wedding album?

Q: Can I cancel the registry and withdraw the money as cash?

A: Yes you can certainly cancel at any time. However, all purchases are final and can not be refunded.

Didn’t see your question? Feel free to call or email Vidyuta.
