One needs the bride to plan a wedding...

This week has been constantly postponed. I understand life happens and as planner and coordinator I need to learn to deal with and work with situations like this. This is another one of my obstacles that I am working on over coming and learning about myself during my internship. I am a very scheduled and reliable person, I am punctual and dedicated to what ever I am doing. We have a wedding tomorrow afternoon that I feel will be cutting it close. One of our last and most important meetings was canceled on Wednesday because the maid of honor went to the hospital on what she thought was labor pains. It was a false alarm. Luckily Alisha was able to meet up with her before the rehearsal to iron out some details. We were supposed to meet up again today but did not hear from the bride till late this afternoon, and by that lost another day. And I am not saying anything against the bride, I am fully aware of her situation and its not only her wedding that is filling up her plate right now. It is just tough to feel completely prepared for tomorrow with so much going on. But that is the life of a planner.

Luckily Alisha in all of her confidence and experience has prepped me very well to run my first solo on Saturday. Alisha will be at the reception site this Saturday getting it ready whilst I am at the church coordinating the ceremony, I am really excited and nervous to be in charge of something this big for the first time. I know I will do well.

We also ran a site inspection this week for a wedding that we will be coordinating in May at this million dollar home in Scottsdale with spectacular views. It will be a very unique and cool ceremony.

Those are the big things we have dealt with this week. Wish me luck for tomorrow.
