Budgeting

Ashley Inn — Fri, 05 Apr 2013 21:05:31 +0000

It’s quite probable that your wedding day will be the “biggest” day of your life. It is also highly probable that you don’t want your budget to be that big too. So, any area that you see potential to save, SAVE! We’ve heard several stories of people buying tablecloths, decor & a menagerie of wedding related items on Craigslist, from businesses going out of business, wedding planners who are selling their items or retiring, etc. As well, sites like Pinterest, have great DIY ideas to save cash! Doing a little research, could really save you a BIG amount!

More blogging!

Ashley Inn — Fri, 08 Mar 2013 21:04:43 +0000

We’ve talked about blogs before, but let’s visit that subject again! With so much technology, we’re never amiss of information on absolutely anything. Blogs are one of the best tools you can use to really get to know the vendors you will be choosing for your wedding! They tend to be a bit more personal and give you a better insight of just exactly who will be helping you make memories on your most important day! So, before deciding on a vendor, check out their blog as well!

Honored!

Taking care of your guests

Ashley Inn — Mon, 18 Feb 2013 19:19:48 +0000

One of the unique things about having an outdoor wedding on our property, is the amount of space you have to host all of your guests. Between the Main House, Reflecting Pond & patio, front lawn and all the other areas surrounding the house, there are endless possibilities to entertain your guests. A really fun way to do that, is to provide some outdoor games for your guests to play, such as corn hole. You can even have someone personalize them with “His” & “Hers”, “Mr.” & “Mrs.”…the possibilities are endless! This allows you some time to enjoy and celebrate your new union, without worrying about your guests! Just another way to relax and really enjoy your time with your all of your special guests!

Who’s in charge?

When it comes to decorating and the little details of your wedding day, who is in charge? You and your groom will certainly be busy and you want to be as stress free as possible, so you can really take in the day. Do you hire a wedding planner or coordinator, or delegate a bridesmaid, maid-of-honor, or Aunt Susie? If you decide to delegate, relax and relish in the moments! All the planning is done and now it’s time for you and your man to sit back and enjoy the day!
