A lot of couples have moved their weddings back by a full year so a lot of the key dates for 2021 are now even busier than ever. ⁠ ⁠ So if you're getting married next year, and you're in a position to do so, I would advise that you start looking for and getting some of your suppliers booked. ⁠ ⁠ Many suppliers have cash flow challenges right now as well so securing some bookings and deposits for 2021 will make a big difference. ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #weddingplanneryorkshire #weddingplannersouthyorkshire #weddingplannernorthyorkshire #weddingplannerwestyorkshire #yorkshireweddingplanner #yorkshirewedding #yorkshireweddingsuppliers #bookingweddingsuppliers #2021wedding ⁠ #ukawp #ukawpmember #weddinghelp #bridetobe2021 #bridetobe2020 #justengaged #2021bride #2020bride #weddingplanningtime #wedmin #weddingplanningbegins #weddingdaycoordinator #springwedding #autumnwedding #winterwedding #gettingmarriedin2021 #gettingmarriedin2020 #weddingexpert #weddingdaymanagement #weddingcoordinator

You can message me or ring me, I'd love to hear from you as I always love to talk about weddings. No obligation, no selling, just a friendly voice at the end of the phone - and we all need that right now. Stay safe everyone πŸ’•

Whilst this is obviously not what you'd originally planned, I thought I'd share some inspiration with you for winter weddings. Winter weddings can be so romantic with soft candlelight. Later in the week I'll share some tips for planning a winter wedding but for now I'll leave you with these lovely images πŸ’•

I have to say I always prefer to meet couples face to face but there are many times when that isn't feasible. Often my couples are living abroad or at the other end of the country. ⁠ ⁠ So quite often my initial consultations and regular catch ups are carried out by phone or by video call using things like Skype and WhatsApp. ⁠ ⁠ Obviously for now all my meetings will be conducted this way so we'll have to share a virtual cuppa. It doesn't mean we can't have that initial consultation or continue to make progress on your wedding plans. Let's keep communications going, it can make such a difference to someone's day. ⁠ ⁠ Drop me a message if you'd like to book some time in to chat about anything to do with your wedding, I'd love to hear from you. ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #weddingplanneryorkshire #weddingplannersouthyorkshire #weddingplannernorthyorkshire #weddingplannerwestyorkshire #yorkshireweddingplanner #yorkshireweddingideas #yorkshirewedding #virtualcuppa⁠ #ukawp #ukawpmember #weddinghelp #bridetobe2021 #bridetobe2020 #justengaged #2021bride #2020bride #weddingplanningtime #wedmin #marqueewedding #outdoorwedding #weddingplanningbegins #weddingdaycoordinator #springwedding #autumnwedding #winterwedding #gettingmarriedin2021 #gettingmarriedin2020 #weddingexpert #weddingdaymanagement #weddingcoordinator
Instagram post 2269689625654323575_2065137931 TIME SAVING TIPS ⁠ ⁠ I know it can be difficult planning your wedding. But if you're now having to postpone your wedding then you have my full sympathy. ⁠ ⁠ I'm trying to share practical tips and advice to help you get things sorted. As well as being at the end of the phone or messenger if you need to talk to someone. ⁠ ⁠ So today, here are a couple of ideas to try to minimise the time you spend finding out if your existing suppliers are available for your new date. ⁠ ⁠ You could set up a group WhatsApp chat with your suppliers so that they can easily let you know which of your new date options they can do. ⁠ ⁠ Or you could create a Doodle Poll which enables them to mark off which dates they're available. ⁠ ⁠ Or you could create a shared calendar on Google or similar. ⁠ ⁠ This will make it quicker and easier for you all and will stop hundreds of emails back and forth to check date options. I'd love to hear any other innovative ideas you've come up with to deal with this particular challenge. ⁠ ⁠ Stay safe everyone πŸ’•β  ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #postponingyourwedding #weddingpostponed #changingweddingdate #postponedourwedding #weddingplanneryorkshire #weddingplannersouthyorkshire #weddingplannernorthyorkshire #weddingplannerwestyorkshire #yorkshireweddingplanner #yorkshireweddingideas #yorkshirewedding #yorkshireweddingsuppliers ⁠ #ukawp #ukawpmember #weddinghelp #bridetobe2021 #bridetobe2020 #2021bride #2020bride #wedmin #weddingdaycoordinator #springwedding #autumnwedding #winterwedding #gettingmarriedin2021 #gettingmarriedin2020 #weddingexpert #weddingdaymanagement #weddingcoordinator

For immediate family and elderly guests you may prefer to do this by telephone but for the majority of guests you can notify guests via text, WhatsApp, email or post. You might not be in a position yet to confirm a new date. So in this scenario I would suggest you let guests know that your original wedding date isn't going ahead and that you will update them when you have more details confirmed and a new date. You might want to ask your stationery designer to design a wedding postponement card for you in the same design as the stationery you have already used. Use clear and concise wording, with the key information. You could arrange to have these printed and posted out but in the interests of speed I think it's a good idea to ask your stationer if they wouldn't mind designing something which you can quickly email or WhatsApp out to your guests. You might need a few printed for any guests who don't have email. Example Wording: CHANGE OF PLANS We have decided to postpone our wedding to a later date. We look forward to celebrating with you soon. Stay tuned for our new date. We apologise for any inconvenience. Here's a couple of examples which stationer Vaishali at @ananyacards has designed. If you need some help with this and you don't have a stationer already or your original one can't help you, then why not get in touch with Vaishali, I know she'd love to help you. And remember, if you need some advice about postponing your wedding I'm here to help. Drop me a line, I'm happy to chat to you and try to get you back on track with everything. Stay safe everyone πŸ’•

Apologies I've been a bit quiet - I won't bore you with the reasons but I'm back and I'm here to help you all. ⁠ ⁠ So sadly the current situation we're all in means that a lot of couples are facing the reality of having to postpone their weddings. It's a very emotive time for everyone so today I wanted to share some top tips if you find yourself in this situation. ⁠ ⁠ Within the blog, I've not talked much about the 'c' word as there's so much noise everywhere. Instead I've focussed on practical advice which will help anyone needing to change their wedding date (for whatever reason)⁠ ⁠ And remember, it's a pause button, you'll still get married and your love for each other is still the same. ⁠ ⁠ I'm here for any couples who need advice, it doesn't matter if you have a booking with me or not, I'm happy to help so drop me a line or give me a ring. I'd love to chat with you. ⁠ ⁠ Stay calm and stay safe πŸ’•πŸ’•β  ⁠ (link in my bio)⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #postponingyourwedding #newweddingdate #changeofweddingdate #weddingplanneryorkshire #weddingplannersouthyorkshire #weddingplannernorthyorkshire #weddingplannerwestyorkshire #yorkshireweddingplanner #yorkshireweddingideas #yorkshirewedding #yorkshireweddingsuppliers ⁠ #ukawp #ukawpmember #weddinghelp #bridetobe2020 #2020bride #weddingplanningtime #wedmin #marqueewedding #outdoorwedding #weddingplanningbegins #weddingdaycoordinator #springwedding #autumnwedding #winterwedding #gettingmarriedin2020 #weddingexpert #weddingdaymanagement #weddingcoordinator
Instagram post 2266234431866364442_2065137931 ONE DAY AT A TIME⁠ ⁠ It's difficult to know what to say to be honest but I'm not going to say the C word! As the situation is changing so quickly, I think we can only focus on one day at a time. ⁠ ⁠ Usually I'm all for planning ahead (obviously) but that's quite difficult at the minute. I have contacted my couples with weddings in the next few months and they know that I am here to help them no matter what happens. ⁠ ⁠ This goes for anyone else too, if you need to chat to someone about your concerns or get some advice about your wedding plans, then just get in touch. ⁠ ⁠ In the meantime I'll be carrying on with planning your fabulous weddings and keeping everything crossed.

I always have a weather plan for my weddings and this week I'm sharing my top tips with you. Link in my bio.
