Heels to Flats!

Look at what Dr Scholl's has created: Fast Flats


For brides, this is an economical purchase because it is convenient and it doesn't put a dent in your wedding budget. This could also be something that can be provided for guests of the wedding if the wedding is not that large so that everyone can continue to dance the night away.
I do know that they are sold in Delaware Rite Aid Pharmacy stores.
I have not purchased this product yet but I have reviewed some feedback and it seems as though folks are discouraged because once you change your shoes from heels to the flats, the pouch the flats come in do not hold your heels so you still have to carry around your heels.
There is an additional product that was suggested as well footzyroll: www.footzyroll.com
This product is similar to fast flats but it provides a large enough pouch to hold heels.
There is a cost difference $9.99 (Fast Flats) versus $25.00 (Footzyroll)
Both of these are cool ideas and should be thought of, for not only a wedding but for those weekend all-nighters.

Check it out and let me know your thoughts!

Bridal shower game - Bath and Body Works

When scanning the websites for new products and shopping for personal items, sometimes I find gems when I am not looking.

Recently, I was introduced to the Bath and Body Works scent of White Citrus, it is a refreshing scent that wakes you up in the morning. I LOVE IT! I was on the website looking for the candle because the store told me that it was discontinued and I came across a bridal shower game and some key bridal survival/emergency items (remember the "just in case" bag):

Bridal Shower Game: This game is for the small intimate bridal shower game for best friends to play before the wedding. $13.00 (on date of posting)

It seems like everyone is getting into the wedding industry; this benefits brides and provides them with more options to create the wedding of their dreams.

Motivation

To those that have been made aware of Wedding Arrangements, LLC and have been following...thank you for being patient with me.

Hunger helps a new entrepreneur get to the starting line but what keeps them motivated? Getting started and having that first customer should not be the end to the dream, it is the beginning.

I received a call tonight from a friend and she asked me some questions about the industry that I enjoy and it felt good to provide advice to someone that is looking to enter the industry and hopefully become a partner.

Last year, Wedding Arrangements, LLC completed two weddings and coordinated a family cruise. In 2010, there are three family weddings that are on the calendar and more are welcome.

The economy has hit every industry but the wedding union and associated festivities should not suffer but unfortunately the brides and grooms do not have the budget for a coordinator and family members are requested to step up and help handle things. My continuous mantra is that a bridal coordinator/planner is needed to provide a non-bias point of view to the wedding so always consider a coordinator and if the budget is small, negotiate the cost with the coordinator and you may be surprised at the services you will receive.

Remember, Wedding Arrangements, LLC, Where Your Dreams Become A Reality!
