Photo Op!! - By Shira Weinberger Photography

This is my Favorite Photo for March taken by Shari of Shira Weinberger Photography.  What I love is the couple looks like they are performing on stage with just the two of them.  What a great moment to capture.  Those couple of minutes when it’s just the two of them and they can take it all in. Great shot Shari!!

Carnival Wedding Inspiration Board

So early this month in Trinidad & Tobago was their annual carnival which I missed.  My entire family and my Mr. Wonderful were there and I was here in the cold.  So to release some of bent up frustration here is T&T Carnival inspired inspiration board. It’s all about color, lively music and loving life.  When you are parading through the streets with a festive costume with your friends, all your problems disappear, all is right in the world, it’s Utopia and isn’t that what your wedding should feel like!!

Planning Tip - Choosing Vendors



Many couples spend hours trying to find the perfect vendors for their wedding.  The right photographer, the right DJ, the right florist and the list goes on.  The process can consume a lot of your free time.  When you are suppose to be enjoying your engagement, your are now surfing the Internet, flipping through magazines and attending many meetings just to pick the perfect vendor team.  Well let me save you some time with these tips.

1) There are thousands of wedding photographers, florist, DJ's, band, musician and so on.  You can't meet them all so don't try.  You will only confuse yourself and make choosing your vendors all the more difficult.  You should express your vision clearly to your wedding planner and let them choose the best vendors for you.  Your wedding planner will be able to select the vendors that best fit your style, personality and budget.  They will show you options that best fit you.

2) If you have not hired a wedding planner, ask for recommendations.  Wedding vendors travel in packs.  Your venue knows photographers, your stationer knows a calligrapher and your DJ knows a lighting company. These are their colleagues that they have worked with and they trust so you should trust their opinion as well. 

3) If you're not the first of your friends and family to get married, ask them about the wedding vendors they hired for their wedding.  These are real brides with experience and they can tell you their personal experience with the vendors they used.  You can trust them because if a bride is left unhappy with a vendor they will be sure to let you know but if they were happy, they love to share their news.  Be careful with these recommendations because the right vendor for them isn't necessarily the right one for you.
