About Me

I was once a Vancity Bride, and after going through 9 months of rigorous wedding planning, I realized that pulling off a wedding on a tight budget is tough. This is what I’m here for, to help brides-to-be overcome bridal sticker shock. I have developed a reputation of being the go-to girl for wedding advice so I decided to put that to good use, on a much bigger scale. I’m very eager to share my ideas with you to help ease wedding-related stress. In addition to that, I’ll be introducing independent local vendors to show you that there are a lot of talented people here in Metro Vancouver that can help bring your vision to life. Not everyone is blessed with an unlimited budget, but for others like me out there, this blog’s for you! I hope you’ll enjoy reading it, as much as I’ll enjoy writing it.
