We’ve all been there. Disappointed in something we spent money on. Hurt by someone you trusted. Those feelings are all the more intense and compounded when your wedding day is involved. Being short-changed by a wedding vendor is complicated given the large investment, one-time event, and all the emotions involved. Here are some tips on how to approach the situation.

Despite what the weatherman tells you, rain is not a death sentence for your special day. In fact, rainy days can be quite romantic and perfect when you’ve planned details that will enhance the mood of an overcast sky. So whether it's pouring on your wedding morning or just drizzling during cocktail hour; here are seven ways to help keep those storm clouds from ruining your big day!

Hiring wedding vendors can be super intimidating. Even if you're just beginning planning your wedding, by now you know how much pressure goes into choosing the perfect vendors.

Check out these awesome moments from their big day!

One of the most important things to you in your wedding planning process is choosing which details are worth spending time on. The right photographer and the perfect menu for your reception dinner should be enough to keep you busy, but as time goes on there are other wedding details that just don’t deserve a spot in your planner. You can let go of some small, less-important decisions like what typeface should be used for invitations or when the cake will need to be delivered and focus more energy instead on larger choices such as who's going to officiate at your ceremony or deciding how many guests each table should seat. Letting go of these things is not only relieving, it will give you more space for those bigger decisions without making life any harder or stressing yourself out.

You’re getting married! Whether you’re planning your big day all on your own or with the help of a wedding planner, one of the most exciting things on your to-do list is the engagement session. This is your chance to get some adorable photos of you and your soon-to-be-spouse in all your lovey-dovey glory!

But as exciting as your engagement session is, it can also make some couples a little nervous. Not everyone is comfortable in front of the camera, and you may be nervous about how you will look, what you should wear, and how you should pose.

Have no fear! Here are some tips to help you feel completely prepared for your engagement session.

Your wedding day allows you to be the star of the show. From getting ready to walking down the aisle to family photos, you’ll be in front of the camera all day and will have plenty of images to look back on. But many brides don’t think about another opportunity to step in front of the camera: a boudoir session.

Putting on pretty lingerie and strutting your stuff may seem intimidating, but with the right attitude—and a boudoir photographer who can make it empowering and amazing--your session will be a great experience.

It’s wedding planning season! Lots of calls are being made, meeting attended, and emails sent. You may feel a bit overwhelmed by the contracts and paperwork involved and be tempted to just sign on the bottom line.

DON’T DO IT!

Contracts are in place to protect the rights of everyone involved. Here’s what to look for.
