I like your blog Crista. It all rings so true-I wish I had access to this kind of advice when we got married. We worked so hard on everything ourselves (my Mom included) and really missed the opportunity to truly enjoy our own wedding. Thank goodn...

Crista, Thanks for the heads-up on the bridle show. I won't be able to do it this year but it does give me something to think about for the future.

Hey Christa! I hope you had a great holiday weekend! I wanted to touch base to see if you had a chance to send any pictures from the Ravas/Renbarger wedding our way?
Thanks,
Bryna

Hi Crista,

How is the event planning business? I use to do large events for a company I worked for and loved it but boy was it alot of work.

Sounds like you have some great tips to share with all of us from your information here.

I'm excited to learn more about you and your business.

Have a great day and enjoy the warm 40 today.

Brides Behaving Badly

As a wedding planner I hear all kinds of crazy stories about Brides behaving badly. Most of them come from fellow vendors who have been forced to experience many of the tantrums and rages themselves.

As I was with my WONDERFUL Bride this weekend, I was listening to her hair stylist talk about the Bride she had done the weekend before.

A few things to consider before joining Smaller Indiana:
1. Please use your real name (first and last) when you sign up, or we cannot open your account

2. Please do not use logos or commercial images for your profile photo

3. Events should be posted in the events calendar

4. You can post pretty much anything you want on your own personal page (self promotion, etc), and you can change the style of your personal profile page to reflect your corporate identification if you so choose.

5. Please keep all comments civil and polite. It's OK to feel strongly about a subject, and it's OK to be critical of ideas, but please refrain from personal attacks of any kind.

If you witness or experience any issues, please contact admin@smallerindiana.com and we will look into the matter.

6. Smaller Indiana is supported by its members, and by corporate sponsors. If you're interested in learning more about sponsorship, please call Pat Coyle at 317 332 7878.
