As a professional that works heavily in the wedding industry, we often come across vendors, services and products that are worth sharing to our network. We hope that these little insights might be of value to you in the sometimes overwhelming process of wedding and party planning.

Let's face it. One of the nicest parts of getting married is the chance for people to shower you with fun gifts. Not all of us are comfortable with this idea, being in the spotlight can make many feel uneasy, for a variety of reasons. Maybe we're just shy, or maybe it's because we feel unworthy, or some other reason. Yet loved ones may just insist on doing it anyway. So, try to allow yourself this little luxury.

There are only a few times in ones life that you can get spoiled and taken care of. Everyone completely understands. One is when you get married, and the other is when having a baby. After each, the beautiful yet challenging hard work comes along.
