Welcome back to The Aisle! Let's catch up a bit. Last year, 2022, was a record-breaking year for my business, but it was also one of the toughest as an entrepreneur. However, I learned valuable lessons about managing my workload, structuring my team, and running a successful business. Now, I have a clear vision, a plan, and a newfound passion for business structure. Now, let's talk about the positive news of 2023. We kicked off the year with a breathtaking wedding in Cabo featured in People magazine. We were even hired to organize the owners' dinner for the Super Bowl, a significant achievement for our female-owned business. Talk about a great start to the year!

Consider the terrain and weather, envisioning how they will all create a magical day. 2️⃣ Make decisions and stick to them: Wedding planning can be overwhelming, especially when deciding to have a larger wedding or opting for a destination wedding. Once you've made a choice, trust your instincts and avoid constantly second-guessing yourself. Give yourself a deadline, weigh the pros and cons, and then move forward with confidence. 3️⃣ Timing is everything: When it comes to saving the dates and invitations, timing is key. Send out save the dates 6 to 12 months in advance, with the sweet spot being 6 to 10 months. For the invitations, aim to send them out 2 months before the wedding to ensure accurate responses from your guests. Keep in mind potential postal service delays and explore electronic invites as an alternative. Follow the Podcast on Instagram! | |||
