This has been the most informative video I have found on RUclips! We're currently planning a micro wedding while still trying to pay off other debts so the idea of restaurant weddings or small venues that include tables/chairs/etc is definitely a must lol. Thank you for all the tips! ❤
So I am a Christian, social worker and Bride. But I have pass experence with catering events. I believe all this combined help ground me and I am only 2 months away from my dream wedding and glad to say I did most of the things you stated here. I did not realize until now that taking an Instagram break really will help keep me away from comparison and distractions that may cause us to over spend last minute. Thanks for that tip! I will start applying that soon.
And yes short engagement 8 months😊
Congrats, Victoria! May God bless your union. ❤️

Great tips! Thank you for sharing.

Thank you so much for this video 🥰🥰 recently engaged, getting married in 8 months and planning my own wedding.
Congrats on your engagement! 🥰
Thanks so much, this social media thing is something else, phsycologically, it gets to you
Mixer is a great idea!!! Most of our guests are coming from all over the country.
Ours was really successful! It was a fun time to gather both sides of our extended families and friends before the wedding, since many hadn’t met yet.
A very helpful video
Great video! I think you are referring to Jamie Wolfer? If so, thanks. I’ve been really considering her $30 package. Glad to hear someone like it!
Yes! Literally a life saver. I had a day of coordinador, but I did 90% of the planning solo with her course.
Thanks for this video! Can you share the restaurant you used as your wedding venue please?
Glad to have found this video! ❤ I’m trying to plan our wedding within 7 months, just got engaged a few weeks ago! How many guests was set for your wedding?
Congrats on your engagement!!
About 75. In hindsight we would have invited more as we had a handful of no shows/cancellations and weren’t able to fill all the spots.
"Room block" said like a true marketer and event planner. 😀
Thanks for the great video! Are the center pieces in the thumbnail the ones you used for your wedding? If so, where did you get them? I have been looking for something similar.
Hey Prisca! The fresh florals with the pampas grass in the thumbnail were from a florist. My center pieces were amber vases from Hobby Lobby and pampas grass from Etsy and these were DIY.
U got good family and friends girl
Omgosh, my fiancé and I just got engaged in June of this year, 2023 and it has been great basking in that. Now it is time to start planning. We are looking to get married next year in October 2024 and I have not done anything 😂. I need help! Even though it is a year out.
Congrats on your engagement! I think you have plenty of time to plan but definitely book your key vendors early. We planned everything in about 6 months, but it was a very small wedding.
Love your insights! What was your wedding venue if you don't mind sharing? Thank you in advance!
Hi Holly! We got married at The Grand in Long Beach
First i want to say congratulations on your marriage. I’m also a bride to be. My wedding is next year in June… You gave out a lot of great information. I was wondering how did you setup the honeymoon fund?
Thanks, Brittany! Glad it was helpful, and congrats on your engagement. I used honeyfund, which had an integration with my wedding site
Can you link the course?
Great tips! Would you be willing to share the name of the restaurant you had your wedding at?
Hey Monique. It’s The Grand Long Beach! It’s a venue space/restaurant.
Hi. Great tips. What is the link for the planning course please?
Hey! It’s pinned
Can you share the course link? Like to her page or something ?
Her RUclips is Jamie Wolfer
In February will be a yr since getting married but we went to the courthouse...and now we want to do a small wedding style reception on a boat I wanted to ask you do you think next February should be an ideal date or should we just do the reception on either one of our birthdays his is May which will be crunch time and mine is October which will be a later time
May is peak wedding season so things may cost more, but generally the weather is better in May in most places. If you say “wedding” the cost goes up as well lol
Would you pls provide the name of your photographer? Thanks.

Why not just do a civil ceremony?
You can spend the money on a renewing your vows thing ten years from now.
