I'm married.
I can't believe it I'm married. I'm almost a month married. It feels like a blur. Its such a memorable and one of the happiest days of my lives. I've learned a lot in this wedding planning. I've learned that I should have been prepared more. I should have demanded that the photographers be at the hotel at a certain time. We should have given them a set shot list of where we wanted to be taken pictures at and who we wanted in our pictures as well. I should have asked the bridal party to be there earlier so that we can take all the bridal party pictures. I know that day wasn't going to be perfect, but I'm there were some things that I wish I could have done a little bit differently.
Remember don't be in a rush.
Your wedding day is one of the biggest moments in your life. Be careful to plan out every little detail. Thats why experts say that the engagement time frame is a year or two. As a bride we dont want to be stressed when our wedding is six months away and we havent bought this (wedding favors,etc) or done this (alter the wedding dress, get fitted for tuxes, etc). The bride and groom always want to be stress free the day of their wedding. It's a celebration of two people who love each other. Be sure to be prepared. Even have a friend or day coordinator help you out. It'll be worth having all the stress relieve.
Theme: Black and White
During this wedding season, I have seen very consistent that the bridesmaid has been wearing the white. For example, Kim Kardashian's wedding. Her matrons of honor and bridesmaids were all wearing white gowns. Even the mother of the bride, Kris Jenner, was wearing white.
In the case of Prince Harry's wedding to Kate Middleton, Pippa Middleton, the maid of honor was also wearing white.
Do you think it's right for the bridesmaids and the mother of the bride to be wearing white?

First Experience
I was very honored and surprised when my friend asked me to help out with his processional. First thing I did was researched, "Filipino wedding processional" and "wedding processional". I find what I thought to be the perfect outline to the processional. I copied and looked at my friend's wedding website and arranged the names in the order it was supposed to go in. I arrived the day of the rehearsal and showed the arrangement to the bride. She had a few little changes and i adjusted to those changes. We started with the procession and everything went OK the first time. The Priest presiding the ceremony then spoke how the ceremony was going to go on. The second time around, there were some changes and there were some people in the bridal party that tried to manage the processional. I did my best and we did the processional the second time. After that, I joined the bridal party at their hotel.
The day of the wedding, I arrived early to help set up and meet some vendors for the wedding. The groomsmen and the groom arrived late. I started to get them ready to line up. The groom lines up and then the sponsors. The bridesmaids and the bride arrived. There was a little changed in the order, but I adjusted. I started the processional and everything went well. The ceremony started as usual. Everything went off without a hitch.
Having this my first experience, I realized that I should have spoken up more. I should have told the bridal party who I am and what to do. I should have told them how to walk and where to go when they go up on the altar. I should have researched more what a catholic ceremony entails. I should have spoken to the sponsors in what to do. I realized my mistakes and I am learning. I am glad for my first experience and I will use this as a stepping stone.

What kind of ideas would you like to see or topics?
Being a new and upcoming event planner, I'm always looking for topics to researched or talk about. Sometimes you may need to look at a contract in detail. What kind of ideas would YOU like to see?
