The Engaged Wedding Planner

Being a wedding planner for the last 6 years definitely did not prepare me for planning my own wedding!
After 14 years of dating my fiance FINALLY proposed while we were in the Turks and Caicos for a Wedding Planners Conference.
We are tying the knot January 8th, 2011 in Italy in the small town his parents are from. I thought "Why not challenge myself and plan a wedding in a country where I don't speak the language!". Well, it has definitely proven to be challenging...fun but challenging!

I have come across quite a few websites in my own planning that I thought might be helpful for you!

AMAZING website! I have done my wedding website, my budget, my guestlist with addresses, inspiration boards and will be able to do my seating chart.
Check out my wedding website - www.weddingwire.com/heatherandandrea

I am having such a hard time finding the perfect shoe. These two websites have been my source of inspiration!

Inexpensive wedding veils. If you know what you want then this website will cut the cost of your veil by hundreds of dollars!!!

I plan to keep you posted as I come across challenges, tips and stories throughout my planning process!!
