Tip of the Day: Regina of Cloud Nove Events recommends Prepare all final wedding payments and tips in advance. Have an envelope labeled with each vendor's name and amount and designate someone to distribute them at the end of the evening. (Bring some extra envelopes in case you’d like to adjust accordingly at the end of the event.)

"The last thing you’ll have time for is to stumble through a pile of cash to pay each vendor, and most likely you won’t have correct change.

ip of the Day: If you're using a Pinterest board to gather ideas and inspiration for your wedding, make sure to go in every so often and "clean up." "Delete photos that no longer fit your wedding style and/or theme, this will help keep you focused and help keep a cohesive look for your wedding. Too much inspiration can lead to confusion," advises Brooklyn-based wedding and events planner Laura Remmert of Laura Remmert Events.

Happy Summer!  Tomorrow is the first day of summer, so we continue to focus on easy to use beautiful summer entertaining pieces.  We think the LOLA PEDESTAL from the Veno Collection is just right for light summer treats.  Pile high with cool triangle sandwiches as we show here, or sweet treats and an always favorite cheese assortment.  Whatever you choose, it's going to look perfect on this lovely pdestal.  Great for brides and bridal events.  Enjoy!

Tip of the Day:  Order two to three additional certified marriage certificates if you're planning on changing your last name. "Having multiple copies allows you to file your name change forms simultaneously and streamlines your name change wait time. It also prevents you from losing your only copy to some dusty government drawer," says Danielle Tate, the CEO of MissNowMrs.com.

Tip of the Day: Never invite more people to your wedding than your venue or budget will allow (in the hopes that they won't attend!). "You can expect that 10 - 20% of invited guests will decline to attend but don't underestimate your family and friends' desire to be there for your wedding day," says Janel Grant of Janel Elise Events.
