Topics offered and a brief description:

We just got engaged - now what? (A guide to getting started)

It is all the stuff that needs to be done before booking vendors and locations which is the hardest! Learn what you need to know to get you started on the road to fun and successful planning.

It's gonna cost what?! (Budgeting your wedding and who pays for what)

How much is this all going to cost? The question on every bride and groom’s (and especially their parent’s) mind in the stages of planning a wedding!

You will get answers to all these questions as well as a budgeting spreadsheet in Microsoft excel.
