Family Matters

If your family stepped out of an episode of ‘Leave it to Beaver’ read no further…for the rest of us, some advice:

Many of our family trees include branches of stepparents, children from previous marriages and all the extended relatives that come along with blended families. Considering your family dynamics during your wedding planning is a key factor in creating a comfortable environment for all those in attendance.

As your wedding coordinators, we urge you to share enough detail with us regarding relationships that we are prepared to meet, greet and organize your family, attendants and guests. We want nothing more than to assure you the most stress free wedding day possible and we find knowing these more intimate details saves us any day-of surprises.

Each of us has a favorite story of doing something either embarrassing or inappropriate with regards to unknown family dynamics. We laugh together at these stories now, but would have given anything to avoid the situation at the time. Don’t be afraid to share the Do’s and Don’ts of your family with us prior to your arrival. We will take note and be certain not to create any uncomfortable situations for ourselves, or your families.

It may make a good story later on, but let’s save those for your Big Day I Dos!
