<p>This is something that bugs me the more I think about it. It seems unprofessional to me. I hear of wedding vendors who will tell their clients, "Don't hire a Wedding Coordinator, we will do all of that for you! Save your money!" More often than not, this "coordination" is just giving a bride and groom a list of names or places. Let's call it what it is. It's a Venue/Vendor Search Program and not Wedding Coordination.

<p>This is something that bugs me the more I think about it. It seems unprofessional to me. I hear of wedding vendors who will tell their clients, "Don't hire a Wedding Coordinator, we will do all of that for you! Save your money!" More often than not, this "coordination" is just giving a bride and groom a list of names or places. Let's call it what it is. It's a Venue/Vendor Search Program and not Wedding Coordination. It's takes 16-20 vendors for an average, not-many-frills wedding and most of them aren't even at the wedding or reception itself.</p>
<p>In my opinion, a true Coordinator explores in depth what their client's personality, style and budget are. Along with this we want to learn the family dynamics, the couple's journey from how they met to how they got engaged and how they want to remember their wedding as well as their guests. I don't just give clients vendor recommendations unless again, they match their personality, style and budget!</p>
<p></p>
<p>I would love to hear what other Wedding Coordinators think about this. What do you think is a solution? Do you even think it's a problem?</p> Southern California & Online Wedding Vendors Wanted!!tag:www.bridaltweet.com,2011-09-29:3145964:Topic:4487722011-09-29T17:15:51.048ZApril Schusterhttps://www.bridaltweet.com/profile/AprilSchuster

<p>Best Wishes!!</p> Why hire a pro with YOUR specialty? Why not a friend/myself?tag:www.bridaltweet.com,2011-09-17:3145964:Topic:4412892011-09-17T06:06:42.851ZInviteBeautiful InspiredWeddingshttps://www.bridaltweet.com/profile/MPCreationsInvitationDesign
<p>I'm looking put together an email series to help brides see the "why" of the different areas of the wedding industry, so they can better understand which professionals to set aside money for (and how much to set aside) and which parts of wedding planning they can reasonably tackle themselves or with the help of a talented friend.</p>

<p>I'm looking put together an email series to help brides see the "why" of the different areas of the wedding industry, so they can better understand which professionals to set aside money for (and how much to set aside) and which parts of wedding planning they can reasonably tackle themselves or with the help of a talented friend.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Wedding professionals, I need your help. Pretend I'm a friend of yours - newly engaged - who, despite being friends with you, is feeling too poor to pay for services in your category (and you're really too far away or busy or hurting for money to offer to do it for free). As a professional, you would hate to see me delegate this responsibility to someone who might do the job poorly, and you want to convince me that your type of services are worth setting aside the money for. <strong>How would you go about your sales pitch?</strong> Do you have <em>horror stories</em> to share of others who have regretted not hiring you (or someone in your field) for their wedding? What is the <em>vision</em> you want your customers to catch for their wedding when they hire you; why do you do what you do? Are there long-forgotten meanings or <em>history behind the traditions</em> involved in your specialty that your potential customer might be interested in knowing?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I can't wait to hear from you, and feel free to add this information (with credit given where credit is due - we all appreciate a little free advertising!) to your business's strategy of partnering with other wedding vendors in your area.</p>

<p>By the way, I hope a wedding officiant will be included in those who respond to this question; I imagine with the decrease in the population of those accustomed to the church setting, it's becoming more common to skip this "formality" in favor of a Justice of the Peace. How do you respond to those leaning in this direction?</p> Northwest vendor collaboration photo shoot!tag:www.bridaltweet.com,2011-06-10:3145964:Topic:3625232011-06-10T17:00:33.498ZTracie Howehttps://www.bridaltweet.com/profile/TracieHowe

<p>I've been trying to put together a bridal shoot with a Seattle model in the next few weeks. I'm already collaborating with Veils by Jules and Midnight Blossom floral design for this shoot. I will be in charge of organizing this, styling the shoot, and taking the pictures, of which I will share and give credit to those who participate.</p>
<p><br/>I'd like to get as many people on board as I can, and I'd prefer to work with locals unless someone wants to send me something in the mail. I'm thinking of an invitation designer, decorator (for an outdoor shoot), caterer, anyone with accessories, make up artist, etc. I want to create an entire scene outside in a park setting. I might even end up doing 2 separate shoots with a bride and groom model or anyone wanting an engagement shoot, if I can get enough people involved. </p>
<p><br/>The hardest part about this collaboration is pinning everyone down for a date and making sure everyone is committed. I am looking at the early evening of June 24th of June, or possibly the 25th. Please email me at traciehowe@yahoo.com if you are interested AND reply to this thread to keep it closer to the top. Please only email me if you are able to commit to this project for sure! Feel free to share this with anyone, including engaged couples, who may be interested. <br/>I'm really excited about this! </p>
<p><br/>Thanks! :)</p>

<p><span style="font-size: 18px;"><span style="font-size: 13px;">I just loved being able to assist Ashley, one of our latest brides to attend last years fall session in a test group. Following is what she said about classes at the end of the 3rd class in the session. "OMG, I had no idea that there was so much that I needed to know about planning my wedding and didn't have a clue about. I knew I needed help and have been following you on Facebook forever. What I loved the most is that in 12 hours and over the course of several weeks, you had broke it down into easy to swallow sections to keep it from being overwhelming. Being able to do the work on my own, but being able to ask questions and get the guidance when and where I needed it was truly priceless."<br/> <br/> Ashley was fun and totally fabulous to work with. I can't wait to see pic's from her late spring wedding. The coral and ivory color combo with crystals is going to pop in the Littleton rose garden she's chosen for her wedding.</span></span></p>

<p>I been thinking of a strategy for affordable advertising to target Brides & Wedding Planners. Right now we advertise with theknot.com (very expensive and for us lacks resulting in poor return on investment), gigmasters.com (great affordable and strong leads), and direct marketing. I have a Caribbean SteelDrum Band in the Wash, DC area. We do social media and Blog at <a target="_blank" href="http://www.caisosteelband.com">CAISO SteelDrum Blog</a>.</p>
