Unbridely - Modern Wedding Planning Camille Abbott

Is A Seating Chart Absolutely Necessary For Your Wedding? 
The short answer is, it depends.
While I know that’s not what you want to hear, it’s pretty freeing when you work out that ultimately, it is up to you, your fiancé and just a few other considerations as well.
Today, I’m going to teach you:
·    the pros and cons of having allocated seating and a seating chart, escort cards or place cards for your wedding reception,
·    the pros and cons of having an unallocated seating arrangement where your family and friends can choose where they want to sit and with whom, and finally,
·    the 3 things you need to consider before you decide on which way is best for you, your fiancé and your guests.

What do you think the most frequently repeated sentence about weddings is?
I reckon I know what it is: “It all goes by so fast”.
One of the most lasting ways to preserve your memories, emotions, thoughts and ideas is by writing it down. 
Today, I want to smash through the bullet journalling b******t and the wedding binder bollocks and share with you:
-     the benefits and why you might want to journal during your engagement and wedding planning (HINT: it is SUPER worth your time)
-      how bullet journalling and wedding binders aren’t worth your time
-      the Unbridely way to journal (it’s non-restrictive and VERY simple). 
And stay listening to the end for a special Sassy surprise that I think you’re going to love.

Recently, I've been chatting with some wedding planners and venue owners about the wedding vendor code and how it can impact engaged couples, just like you, as you go about choosing, booking in, questioning and receiving the products and services that are presented to you. 
I want you to be aware of some of the downfalls that the vendor code has so you can make sure you are getting the full story about your vendors’ capabilities, capacity and professionalism. 
I'd love to share with you today, first of all, what the wedding vendor code is, and secondly, the red flags you should be keeping your eye out for that might suggest that someone does not have your best interests at heart.

Does this sound like you? 
I can't express myself very well. I'm no good at writing.  I'd be too embarrassed to read them in front of everyone.  What's the point in sharing them with everyone? My fiancé already knows how I feel and it's no one else's business anyway. Writing your own personalized wedding vows is more popular than ever. I'm always more than thrilled to help engage couples and show them a simple way to write their very own unique and meaningful vows. And there are several reasons why I'm so passionate about this, which I'd love to share with you today.
Personal, unique vows that no one else in the world could make but you, have so much power, value, intention and emotion, and are in fact, an investment into your relationship. 
What I'd love for you to realise from this episode is the amazing opportunity you have with your wedding vows, to actually be excited to write them and be proud to say them too.
