Snow Update

February 26th, 2007 @ 11:36 am by Mrs. Bluebell

It’s finally time to update everyone on our trip upstate last weekend to see if we can have our wedding where we were planning to. (At our family’s summer house in the Adirondacks…which lacks enough uninterrupted space for a single large tent.)

Because the snow was so so deep…

snowpaths.jpg

we decided not to make our caterer drive all the way out to meet us. Instead, we took our 100 lb plus black lab and some snowshoes, and tried to trek up ourselves to at least check the area out. It was rather difficult.

Why Does Snow Mess Up My May Wedding?

February 17th, 2007 @ 3:06 pm by Mrs. Blueberry

Just like Miss Bluebell’s eerily similar post from yesterday (ok ok I blatantly copied it smiley402), the 8″ of snow we currently have is seriously screwing up with my wedding planning…

Since January, my mom has been trying to find a weekend to come up here to my college town so I could have my dress fitting (improbably, I found “The Gown” at the only bridal shop in this tiny town). She really wants to be present at it, and I really want her here. But every time we make plans for her to come up, it snows. Today was our “one last chance” day before I just give in and go it alone. So, of course, I wake up this morning to heavy snow and word that the highways in northern Missouri are nearly impassible in places. Fantastic.

Monday is our “one more last chance” day, and if it doesn’t happen then I’ll have to go to my fitting sans Mom.

End rant.

Want to see some pics of the snow on my University campus (before we had the full 8″)?

Free Wedding Rings On A Rainy Day

February 14th, 2007 @ 1:56 pm by Mrs. Peach

Rain, rain go away! Come back on another day! This is the song I’ll be singing on my wedding day. Today I’m working from home because of the icy road conditions here in the NE. And it got me thinking about the weather and how one of my biggest worries on my wedding day is rain and/or snow (although end of march in Atlanta it is very unlikely to snow. *knock on wood*).

But you know how they say, rain on your wedding day is good luck? See, when I heard that I was pretty convinced that someone just made up that saying to make brides feel better for having rain on her wedding day. I tried to do some research on-line but unfortunately could not find any explanation of where this saying came from. Anybody know?

In anycase, it looks like it really is good luck for it to rain on your wedding day if you’ve purchased your rings from Elyse Jewelers in Massachusettes! If it rains more than half an inch in Boston on the afternoon of your wedding, they offer full refunds for your wedding rings!

The Snow in Buffalo (and East Aurora)

February 8th, 2007 @ 11:56 am by Mrs. Raspberry

I know, I know, Buffalo and that area has this bad rap for all of the snow that it gets… and this week is no exception. I have been completely unable to speak to anyone up there (my vendors) about anything due to the 4 feet of snow they got, because no one was at work the last two days. My mom said the cars that were parked on the street in town are literally waist deep in snow!

They got so much snow on Monday that the weatherman from Good Morning America was there doing the weather this morning, and he happened to be standing in front of a house about 5 blocks from our reception site.

Check it out…

I am just praying it all melts before July 14!

Snow and Snowflakes!

January 18th, 2007 @ 6:06 pm by Mrs. Poppy

Now that it’s snowing like crazy in NYC, I wish that my wedding was during the winter rather than in the heat of July. It’s just so pretty, but then again I know I’d be freezing. Those of you having a winter wedding, take lots of pictures outside smiley505 I’d love to see them.

On the theme of winter weddings, I found these adorable things that are perfect for winter weddings:

Come Hell Or High Water

January 3rd, 2007 @ 3:17 pm by Mrs. Strawberry

As a wedding coordinator, you have to hope for the best and prepare for the worst. One of my recent clients did just that at her recent December nuptials. There were problems to say the least! :)

Washington State was hit by some pretty nasty weather in the weeks leading up to the wedding, and thousands upon thousands of residents were without power for many days. Homes, businesses, and unfortunately churches were victims of the storm. The Bastyr Chapel, where they were to wed, was without heat and any kind of light on the big day. Now, the Bastyr is an amazingly beautiful and large church which is both good and bad. Good because despite the power being out, it still looked absolutely beautiful lit by candlelight. Lots and lots of candlelight. The bad part was that it was somewhat chilly inside such a large space. But with the excitement of the day… I don’t think anyone noticed!

Soo… I am getting married in 4 days in Negril, Jamaica.

Over the weekend, the weather forecasts predicted thunderstorms for this coming Saturday.

Then yesterday, the Hurricane network predicted that Tropical Storm Joyce might develop and pass over Jamaica this weekend.

Everyone do the ANTI-rain dance with me!!!

Please help me wish for good weather! Keep thinking bright and sunny thoughts!

Backup Photo Locations

November 9th, 2006 @ 3:08 pm by Mrs. Butterfly

So it seems like there may be some chance of rain on our wedding day. I’ve been telling myself over and over that rain is good luck, pictures in the rain look wonderful, a big bright umbrella will really liven up the pictures, etc. But in my heart, I don’t want it to rain.

Since we are staying at the W in Times Square, I thought it would be amazing to get at least a few shots in Times Square in my wedding dress. Very New York pictures, don’t you think? Then we were going to take some quaint pictures in the West Village. However, with the possibility of rain, we have to think of alternate locations.

I really love the quintessential New York style, so if it rains, we are going to take pictures in Grand Central Station. It does make for beautiful pictures, and I know my photographer has shot there before.

But… I still dont want it to rain.

Would rain ruin your wedding day?
