<p><strong>Q1. What if I have to postpone my wedding?</strong></p>
<p><strong>Answer:</strong> When a wedding is rescheduled I have to plan it all over again. The elements of your wedding may remain the same buy when the date changes I have to first make sure that I am not committed to another event on your new date. I also have to reconfirm that your original vendors are available on the day and negotiate additional deposits if required. In some cases the entire concept of the wedding changes because a couple cannot use the venue they had originally chosen. For this reason I feel that it is necessary to have a surcharge for any wedding that is postponed for mare that three months from the original date out contract with you the contract will be terminated. I invite all couples in this situation to create a new contract with Uniquely You Planning  and offer a $50 discount if they choose to do so. Please keep in mind that the new contract will be based on the most current price list.</p>
<p><strong>Q2. Will Wendy Myers be the wedding planner that shows up on my wedding day?</strong></p>
<p><strong>Answer:</strong> I have a qualified team of planners. While I try my best to be present at each wedding day booked by Uniquely You Planning occasionally this in not possible for either personal or professional reasons. I would never surprise a bride and not show up on her wedding day when I was expected unless there was an extreme emergency. If a planner other than me is going to coordinate your wedding day we will all sit down for a meeting so that you feel comfortable with the situation.</p>
<p><strong>Q3. What if I cancel my wedding?</strong></p>
<p><strong>Answer:</strong> I am always sad to hear of a cancelled wedding. However, I do stand by our contract. Our retainer fee is non-refundable and if your balance has been paid then that is also non-refundable.</p>
<p><strong>Q4. Is my deposit refundable?</strong></p>
<p><strong>Answer:</strong> No it is not. It is actually not a deposit buy a retainer fee. I will turn away other brides for your wedding date once I receive your retainer fee. I also start working on your wedding right away. The majority of the coordination occurs in the beginning stages of the planning process.</p>
<p><strong>Q5. What if there is a natural disaster or a death on the wedding day?</strong></p>
<p><strong>Answer</strong>: If a natural disaster occurs on your wedding day I will do my best to help you proceed with your day as planned. This would also be the case if there was a recent death in the family. If I am unable to do so I will help you to reschedule your wedding for the next day if at all possible. These events can occur and I will try to have everything run as smoothly as possible under the circumstances.</p>
<p><strong>Q6. What do I do if my financial situation changes and my wedding expenses seem out of control?</strong></p>
<p><strong>Answer:</strong> First of all you will always know what you are spending on your wedding by keeping track of each quote or invoice in my popular wedding budget spreadsheet. This will help you to evaluate where you could cut costs. Come to me with any financial concerns you are having and I can give you tips and tricks on creating a more frugal wedding day.</p>
<p><strong>Q7. Where do we meet to discuss out wedding? Do you have office space?</strong></p>
<p><strong>Answer</strong>: I have a home office in Billings. This keeps the overhead costs to a minimum and I pass those savings onto my clients with great package prices. Our meetings will occur in the most convenient place for you&#8230;lunch break, coffee shop, your home &#8211; whatever works best for you.</p>
<p><strong>Q8. Why is there an extra charge for room setup at the community hall we booked?</strong></p>
<p><strong>Answer</strong>: When a couple rents out a community hall for their wedding reception they often don&#8217;t realize that setting up the tables and chairs in the appropriate places is not included in the hall rental. In addition when you hire a caterer, setting up the tables and chairs is not included in their contract either. Some couples are able to go in the night before and set things up but it has been our experience that the majority of times when I have been hired for wedding day coordination or full wedding planning it is expected that my team will set up the tables and chairs. This in not inclueded in either of the above mentioned packages and therfore there is a separate charge for this service which is a mandatory charge if I am coordinating a wedding at a community hall. If I arrive to a community hall completely set up with tables and charis this charge is refunded.</p>
<p><strong>Q9. What is this &#8220;Wedding Day Emergency Kit&#8221; that you talk about in your packages?</strong></p>
<p><strong>Answers</strong>: This kit is a giant bag filled with all sorts of tools I use to make sure that everything on your wedding day runs smoothly. I have a granola bar for the dizzy bridesmaid, water for the parched groom, an umbrella for the bride on a rainy day. I have even turned a pin on corsage into a wrist corsage using this bag and pinned up fallen bustles. From bobby pins to Tylenol I make sure that if you might need it on your wedding day, I have it with me.</p>
<p><strong>Q10. I have so many wedding etiquette issues. Can you help me sort this out?</strong></p>
<p><strong>Answer</strong>: We have a great package for this. It&#8217;s called &#8220;A Little Help.&#8221; You can sit down with me for an hour and a half and discuss as many wedding related questions as we can fit into that time.</p>
<p><strong>Q11. Family and friends keep telling us what kind of wedding to have. How can a wedding planner help?</strong></p>
<p><strong>Answer</strong>: It is my policy to only take direction from the bride and the groom. With Uniquely You Planning you do not have to worry about showing up on your wedding day to pink roses instead of white. Every decision is made by the wedding couple. Moms and bridesmaids are totally wellcome to participate in the planning process but the most important thing is that you are happy. Having a wedding planner can help you deal with insistent family and friends. I can give you helpful tips in regards to incorporation everyone&#8217;s ideas into your day and help you to make everone feel special.</p>
<p><strong>Q12. Why can&#8217;t you pay all my vendors for me? Why do I have to have a contract with each one?</strong></p>
<p><strong>Answer</strong>: I really feel that it is important for you to establish a relationship with each vendor that will be a part of your wedding day. That is why I encouage you to discuss your ideas directly with that individual. For example, this is important when dealling an invitation compnay so they are clear on your vision. However, I do need to be kept in the loop as my role is dependant on being a part of each aspect of your wedding. There are certain vendors that will communicate solely with Uniquely You Planning. There are a lot of details to work out with venues and caterers. You hired us to take care of those details and turn to you for guidance and decisions when needed. I make sure that the bride and groom that want to be heavily involved are able to do so and those that prefer to be at arm&#8217;s lenght are accommodated as well.</p>
<p><strong>Q13. What if I have a complaint about one of the vendors you have recommended to me?</strong></p>
<p><strong>Answer:</strong> Please come to me first and explain the situation calmly. Weddings are so wonderful to be involved in because they are based around the intense emotions between two people. However, because emotions are involved, troubling situations can arise. As you wedding planner I am here to help you with each step of your wedding planning process. I will do my best to mediate any situation that arises. Please keep in mind that misunderstandings do happen as the majority of brides and grooms are dealing with people through email. It&#8217;s tough to know what someone really meant when you can&#8217;t hear the tone of their voice or see their facial expression.</p>
<p><strong>Q14. How do I know that the vendors you recommend are the best choice for my wedding?</strong></p>
<p><strong>Answer</strong>: I am very active in the wedding community locally. As I attend various bridal fairs, association events, and plan many weddings I get to know the wedding vendors and suppliers that are doing the same. I have no exlusivity with any wedding suppliers so I have worked with a veriety of people. That is not to say that I don&#8217;t have my favourites, because I do. These are individuals that I have gotten to know well and who provide excellent quality products, services, and customer care. I do recommend these individuals more often that not because I know that I can trust them to make my clients happy. However, if you have found a supplier that I have not worked with before I am open to working with them too.</p>
<p><strong>Q15. How long will I have to wait to hear back in regards to potential venues and wedding suppliers?</strong></p>
<p><strong>Answer</strong>: Keep in mind that I may not have results for you immediately after receiving you deposit. It takes time to research the different elements of your wedding and to contact potential vendors. You and your finance are unique and I never plan the same wedding twice! Please be patient and know that I am working diligently on your wedding.</p>
<p><strong>Q16. What happens after I have signed my contract and you have received my deposit?</strong></p>
<p><strong>Answer:</strong> I start working on your wedding right away!</p>

The Shooting Star

<h1 style="text-align: center;">The Shooting Star<br />
<span style="font-weight: normal; font-size: 10px;">(Inspired by the Movie “The Notebook”)</span></h1>
<p align="center"><em>“Summer romances end for all kinds of reasons, but when all is said and done they have one thing in common. They are shooting stars, a spectacular moment of light in the heavens, a fleeting glimpse of eternity and in a flash they’re gone.”</em></p>
<p><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-349" title="notebook 3" src="http://www.uniquelyyouplanning.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/notebook-3-300x198.jpg" alt="notebook 3" width="300" height="198" /></p>
<p>Were you instantly drawn to each other? Instead of watching the movie you</p>
<p>stared into each other’s eyes? Do you challenge each other every day? Does</p>
<p>just being in his presence feel like home? Do you want nothing more than to grow old together?</p>
<p align="center"><strong>If your love is more powerful then time and space…then The Shooting Star is for you.</strong></p>
<p><em>“Learning from each other and growing with love. The best love is the kind that awakens the soul and makes us reach for more, that plants a fire in our hearts and brings peace to our minds. And that’s what you’ve given me. That’s what I’d hope to give you forever.”</em></p>
<p>Allie and Noah and their improbable romance that developed into a lasting love are the inspiration for this package.</p>
<p>Even though Allie and Noah faced many obstacles they never stopped loving each other, their hearts always leading them back to one another. They fell in love with colossal passion, a feeling so intense it is mind-boggling.  You can be sure their wedding was a celebration to last a lifetime.</p>
<p>Like Allie, you are a strong willed woman that isn’t afraid to say what is on her mind and your fiancé loves <em>for it </em>not <em>in spite of it. </em>He loves you so much he would do anything, even build you a white house with blue shutters. You have tons of ideas for your wedding and have already planned most of the wedding yourself, however, would like to have the advice of a professional by your side during the planning process as well as on your wedding day.</p>
<p>This wedding package is the ultimate celebration of love.</p>
<p><strong>You will be sharing these timeless memories with your loved one for years to come, making this special day last a lifetime.</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-73" title="wedding-reception-fun" src="http://uniquelyyouplanning.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/wedding-reception-fun.jpg" alt="wedding-reception-fun" width="585" height="270" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The wedding reception is the time to celebrate the wedding vows. It is a chance for the new couple to share their joy with family and friends. To make the reception a unique celebration, plan it with your guests in mind to provide them with the time of their lives.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Avoid making the reception a stiff, formal affair. Make a point of planning a fun event to entertain everyone so they will have a great time. Depending on the location of the reception you have many options for planning a reception that everyone will always remember.</p>
<p>The setup of the reception should be easy and simple. If you are going to have decorations make them in places out of the way of the guests and their views of the room or area. It is frustrating for a guest to miss a special moment like the cutting of the cake or a decoration or a pillar in the reception hall blocks the wedding toast since their view.</p>
<p>To make your reception truly unique, select a location that will be different from other receptions. This then creates the memorable time for the guests and the bridal party.<br />
If you are having a country theme or a beach wedding, have the reception in the areas of the farm for the country wedding and for the beach wedding have it on the beachfront. Have a corn roast or pig roast for a better effect and fun for the reception.</p>
<p>Remember to change into a different dress so you will not ruin your wedding gown. By changing your dress, you will tell your friends and family you are ready to have a good time. There are plenty of nice white dresses that will still allow you to wear white but not ruin the beautiful dress of your dreams.<br />
Think about different locations such as a park where the guests can play horseshoes, volleyball, and maybe a game of baseball. Let your guests know before the wedding to bring a change of clothes so they will be dressed appropriately.</p>
<p>For the sports fan, add sports party favors to the theme of the reception. Have a baseball or football shaped punch bowl or small cakes or party treats. Golf is a sport many enjoy, use a golf tee for the poker on the treats.</p>
<p>A skyscraper is another unique location for the reception. This is a nice place especially at night with the lights of city under the feet of the guests resembling fireflies. That location screams “romance” and will be a very impressive place for your reception.</p>
<p>Have your reception in the local gardens for a nice daytime reception with the continued romantic feeling you are trying to have for your wedding. With all the different possibilities for locations, only you imagination is stopping you from having your reception in a unique location.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Weddings usually serve an alcoholic beverage. Serving wine has become something many couples add to the  list since it is a classy beverage that is enjoyed by all age groups and crowds. Add to the appearance of the wine bottle by using some unique methods  making a lasting impression on the guests.</p>
<p>Wine stoppers in the theme of the wedding are a nice touch. The stoppers are available in hearts, starfish, wedding bells, and so many other designs to match any wedding theme. The stoppers add personality to every bottle especially if the bottles at set on the individual tables in a basket filled with ice.</p>
<p>Use wine charms with the bottles. The charms added to either the bottles or the wine glasses. They are available in the same cute and classy designs of hearts, wedding bells, bows, as well as custom designs to match your wedding theme including boots for the country wedding for example.</p>
<p>Elegant little bottles of wine are a nice touch to the wine lovers on the guest list. The bottles do not have to be wine since they are also available in sparkling cider for the younger guests. They are also great keepsakes that provide lasting memories.</p>
<p>Another classy touch is having your own wine in a bottle with the names of the bride and groom with the wedding date on the labels. Add a nice picture to the label for more personal touch to the customized wine bottle.</p>
<p>Create your own champagne jelly, which is fast and easy. It is will go with any meal you are serving as well as the wedding cake. To make the jelly offers the tastes of champagne as part of the dessert you serve with the meal.</p>
<p>Use champagne flutes as a wedding favor for the reception. This is a nice gift for all the guests. Fill the flutes with candy in the colors of the wedding theme and sit them on the tables for added decoration. The guests always love little personalized touches at receptions and this will be a nice gift they can take home with them.</p>
<p>There are other wine favors you can use at the reception such as grape coasters and wine bottle serving platters you set the bottles of wine on for the wine lovers on the guest list. They will find this touch classy and stylish. Wine bottle shaped candles can be placed on the tables for an evening wedding to provide the candlelit reception adding the atmosphere of romance centered around the wine theme of the reception.</p>
<p>For the wine lovers that are getting married or the guests of the reception, using the wine favors and decorations will make a lasting impression on everyone sharing your special day.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Most brides have an idea of what they want to do for their wedding theme while others have a harder time deciding</strong>. The average weddings will take place in the hometowns or in the United States. Here are the standard month-by-month wedding themes and colors to help decide the right colors for your wedding.</p>
<p><strong>March and April is a wonderful time for the spring wedding with the new spring colors and flowers</strong>. Lilies of the Valley and Shasta daisies, daffodils, and tulips are the spring flowers. Pastel colors of purple, yellow, pink, and light blue are the colors used including light greens and peach colors.</p>
<p>Some of the popular themes include Cherry Blossom, butterfly, and dragonflies. Light and springy items of the springtime are the general type of themes. Other themes include St. Patrick’s Day or something Irish.</p>
<p><strong>May, June, and July are the summer wedding associated with the gardens, beaches, and countrysides or parks</strong>. The colors are brighter using fuchsia, hot pink, orange, green with contrasts of black, chocolate, gray, or aqua.<br />
The themes include Gardens, Daisies, Victorian Gardens, beaches, starfish, Hawaiian Luau, Nautical, Poolside, Patriot, fairy tales, country, and south of the border.<br />
The color themes incorporate all shades of green, cornflower blue, orange, fuchsia, aqua blue, teal green, and aubergine.</p>
<p><strong>August, September, and October are the fall weddings</strong>. The darker colors such as pumpkin orange, cinnamon, dark purple, dark blue, hunter green, burgundy, mocha, chocolate brown, rust, and gold.<br />
The themes include Harvest time, Halloween, Tuscan, and Labor Day celebrations.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>November is colors include gold, creams, browns, dark orange, dark blues, dark greens, and darker reds</strong>. The use of black with red or hunter greens are a favorite as well. The themes are around the harvest and Thanksgiving themes.<br />
<strong><br />
December, January, and February are the winter months associated with the bright vibrant winter colors of red, gold, green, white, silver, and blue as anything metallic or shiny.</strong> Adding the black color to any of the main colors create a wonder and attractive style for the wedding.</p>
<p>The themes are associated with the holidays of Christmas, New Years,  Valentine’s Day, Winter Wonderland, as well as crystal and diamond themes. Adding the dark purples, the combination of black and white, white and red, and blue and gold are also associated with this time of the year.</p>
<p>As with all suggested colors and themes for weddings, the final decision for the themes and colors are up to the wedding couple. They can make any theme and colors look just beautiful for their wedding during any month they are getting married. The concept of this list is to offer assistance for wedding color and theme ideas. The true test of the right colors and themes is how comfortable the bridal pair is with their decision.</p>
