You’re Engaged! Now what?!

This is not a typical blog post for Detailz Events, but this is a question A LOT of newly engaged couples ask me when they catch me face to face……in the midst of the excitement just after you get engaged, a few butterflies start fluttering as you think to yourself, “What do I do now?” The options and decisions to be made can seem ENDLESS!

Once you settle on what area you want to get married in, you need to select how large a wedding and start thinking about what “feel” you are after.

Will it be:

an intimate beach wedding? church/sophisticated club reception? a elegant garden wedding? Then of course, you need to sit down and figure out a ballpark budget that you are comfortable with. If this is a destination event especially, one of the very first vendors you should consider if your budget allows is a wedding planner/designer. NO- this is not a shameless plug After doing destination weddings for almost a decade in Naples and Southwest Florida, we have had brides & grooms come to us at very different stages in the planning process.

Detailz Events Blog Launch

Well, this has been on our to-do list for several years believe it or not, but between planning Southwest Florida’s most amazing events, having babies and raising our families, our blog has fallen to the bottom of the list. One standard we live and work by is…..if we do it, we do it right….so we didn’t want to launch our long awaited blog until it was up to our standards. With the help of our FABULOUS tech savvy assistant Lauren, the day has arrived!

Here at Detailz we do all sorts of events…so we wanted a forum to share what inspires us, helpful tools and tips to those planning events and just terrific eye candy! We want this blog to be not only informational but kind of a fun place to drop in and see what’s new, what’s on the horizon, and on occasion a helpful snippet of information. We hope you find these posts interesting, helpful, inspiring and fun. Thanks to all our friends, family and clients who have given us the opportunity to bring our art to life and be a part of the events that shape their memories!

Cheers!

Karen, Madi & Lauren
