Royal Princess Visit

IMG_0114.JPG    Smooth Sailings

Weddings Done Wright was recently invited to view the new Royal Princess yacht from colleague  Camille Cerria from Smooth Sailings.  We boarded at Weehawken, NJ  The first thing that you experience is the sea air.  Next, is how spacious an event on board can be.  The food catered by Snails and Quails was wonderful from grilled steak and hotdogs to great fruit and vegetables.  Borrowing from Camille’s tag line if you are thinking of a unique venue to plan your event, “plan it on water”. 

Florist packages

Recently I met with a client who contracted with a florist on a bridal package.  I have not worked with this florist before but Gray’s Florist was willing to adjust thier package to meet the clients wants. 

Do not be afraid to ask for options even if you already selected a package from any vendor? Many times the vendor is able to work with other things within that price point to create your desired result.  It is one of the things planners do for our clients all the time.  

Happy Mothers Day!

This month of April has been trying for me as a mother.  My son was recovering from a injury on his hand.  It was tough becasue he is so young and wanted to play but was restricted.  I am happy to report that he is jumping off the couch now (literally) with a clean bill of health!  

Grand Cascades Lodge

I am writing in a room in the beautiful Grand Cascades Lodge in Vernon, NJ.  It is no wonder that Joan Hamburg from WOR is quoted as stating “This place is breathtaking.”

I was able to tour the wine cellar and the facilities.  Simply stunning.  More pictures to come.

Wedding Party Event by the Wedding Library

I had the pleasure of attending the Wedding Party lavishly put together by Claudia Hanlin’s and Jennifer Zabinski’s Wedding Library LLC.  In attendance were Preston Bailey, Darcy Miller Editor of Martha Stewart Weddings.  What does a planner do after attending this event?  Go get more inspiration!  I hit a party store in Lodi, Micheals and ACMoore.  It was a wonderful event.
