| Planning a wedding is a big job! By the time you plan, contact vendors, address invitations, track RSVPs, decorate, & shop you will have a minimum of 200 hours wrapped up in your wedding. In the past Moms and Grandmas had time to help with everything. Anymore they are busy too and like to enjoy themselves at the wedding & reception instead of running around making sure everything is tended to. Cherished Events owner and founder, Angela Shreves, is a Certified Bridal Consultant & Event Planner. She has had extensive training in wedding and event planning, coordination, direction, etiquette, & traditions. With Cherished Events you not only have a wedding encyclopedia at your fingertips but you also have professionals on hand to make sure your wedding is exactly the way you have envisioned it to be. Following are a few reasons why you might consider hiring Cherished Events to take care of all or part of your event. Flexibility We have been trained to be flexible in planning. Forget any notions you have heard about all or nothing. We are available to assist you with as little or as much as you prefer. We have consultation packages available to help you develop a game plan and get you started on the right track, planning packages to assist you with the legwork, or day of services packages so everyone can relax & enjoy themselves while we take care of everything. With any package we are able to skillfully guide you through the process without you losing control over the event of your dreams. Smooth Tensions Although this is the happiest time of your life it will probably also be one of the most stressful. We are able to play the role of mediator and keep everyone on the right track. We will ensure that the preferences of the couple are honored and provide solutions that satisfy everyone's concerns. We Understand Wedding Economics As everyone knows, weddings can be very expensive before anyone even understands what they're buying or what they still need. We stay on top of prevailing market conditions and can give different suggestions for all kinds of budgets. Price Negotiations We have been trained to negotiate the best possible price for you. The difference between you and a consultant in the eyes of a vendor is repeat business. Because we coordinate events for a living they are aware that they will get repeat business from us and therefore we are able to negotiate a better fee for you. Your Big Day We are there for you on your big day!! It would be nice if you were calm & collected on your day but most couples are too excited and nervous to make sure everything goes smoothly. They shouldn't have to. We will be there to make sure everything is set up, the correct pictures are taken, the cake has been delivered, the guests are being seated correctly, all the vendors are present and ready to go, and everything else in the never ending list of things to check and double check. We take care of all the details so that you and your families are able to sit back and enjoy the special day!! |
