Kathy selected Brittany to support us managing the wedding. I wasn’t sure we needed a planner or manager, but I needed help with finding a venue. I figured the rest would be easy. We contracted Brittany and within a couple of weeks found a venu...e, which we pretty much did on our own. I approached Kathy to cancel contract, but she and others encouraged me to keep their services. I am so glad we did. There were so many details, and so many decisions, and Brittany always stood back at first, found out if we needed help, provided options, and then helped us select option if we couldn’t, on all the vendors, and then tiny decisions about center pieces for the tables. The day of, and management of vendors in execution. No way could do without her. Behind the scenes, my wife and I were asking Brittany to help with surprises for each of us, which of course we didn’t know the other was planning, and asked Brittany to do and keep quiet, and she was sending out update details to both of us, while sending updates on the surprises.
That’s my side as groom.
Her side as bride, she had a problem with the dress. She had it made in her home country, picked it up and it was wrong. She tried to brave it out, and finally let me know it was a disaster a week before the wedding. At first she didn’t want to deal with it, and just accept things as they were. Which seems Zen, but it wasn’t it:) I convinced her to let Brittany know to see if she had ideas, and she did, and we got her an insane dress.
Brittany,
No way we could have done it without you.
Love,
Paty and Rob
