But Honey Its Cold Outside!!

It’s the coldest day of the year but I’m couldn’t be happier today because tomorrow I’ll be on a flight to the sunny island of Trinidad & Tobago!! But before I go, I had to share a story of a wedding I planned back in January of 2005. This called weather jogged my memory.

My clients hired me only 2 months before their wedding after the bride realized that planning a wedding for more than 200 people was a little bit too much for her to handle. So I stepped in and handle all the open items. She needed a photographer, videographer, favors, centerpieces, and bouquets. The biggest dilemma was the RSVPs. She had inadvertently sent the invitations with no response card so I had the lovely task of calling all of the guest for their replies. But we got it all done and the plans were looking good. On the day of the wedding, everything was running smoothly. I made all of the bouquets, vendors were confirmed, deliveries were in route and the bride was calm. Then I opened my front door to leave and what did I find, 6 inches of snow and there was no end in sight. By the time the wedding was suppose to start, NY was blanketed with a foot more. This clearly presented a bump in the road but I remained calm and proceeded with the day. In the end, the wedding was perfect! Despite the delay because of the snow storm, everything went very well. All of the guest had a great time, the bride and groom were happy and I now have a funny story to tell!!
