As a wedding planner, I get asked a lot of questions about what it is like, and do I have any things that stand out in my mind. I thought I would share one thing that is always a constant with every wedding that I do.
My favorite moment is that instant before the bride walks down the aisle. Her bridesmaids have all made their journey down the aisle, and she is the last one at the back waiting with her dad or parents and there is that anticipation of what is about to happen. THE moment she has dreamt about since she was a little girl. She has watched all of the brides before her when she was growing up, and thinking that someday… that is going to be her. The months of planning for this big day, and the time has finally arrived. NOW it is finally HER moment to shine, and she is going to meet the man of her dreams at the end of the aisle. She is in her dress that she has meticulously picked out, her hair is a vision and the make-up equally so. Last minute words from her father and/or mother before they take those first timid steps (and maybe some tears, and that gets me EVERYTIME!!), and THEN here it is…. the music starts, the doors open, and VOILA, behold THE BRIDE!!

Inspiration boards
I love the idea of these. It is like when you were a kid and you wanted to glue a bunch of pictures on a poster board for a school project.
It becomes particularly handy when planning your wedding as you save an image from a website or scan a photo from a magazine and have all of your ideas saved in one location and can give a really good idea of the theme or mood you are trying to create with your wedding.
I did up a really quick one using a "diamond theme". All of the images I used can be found on my website www.dreammakerwed.com under either the bouquet jewels shopping cart or through the online weddingstar link I have on the site as well.
I know I will have some fun playing around with this little gem. I did this image board in a matter of minutes just to see what it did. Here it is:

Now you yourself can make an image board to keep track of all of the wonderful ideas you have for your upcoming wedding. Enjoy!!
