MSN.com published an article, “Biggest Wedding Regrets” on Monday, where brides were asked to share their deepest regrets in planning their weddings. Although we all strive to make a wedding perfect, many times brides have no idea what to expect on their wedding day. These brides were asked to be brutally honest, and revealed regrets of:
A chocolate fountain vs. flowergirl disaster
Not having an emergency kit for mishaps
Providing guests with unreliable online directions to the reception from the ceremony
Running out of food during an evening dinner reception
Purchasing a wedding gown from a bad bridal salon
Poor choices regarding the wedding party and their attire
Time consuming DIY invitations
Not having wedding coordinator on the wedding day
Many of these small glitches would have definitely been avoided by hiring a professional wedding planner. Wedding planners are trained to foresee, predict, and provide solutions for the unexpected. When envisioning how perfect you want your wedding day to be, having a talented event planner is you best wedding investment. Â

Congratulations to the new Mr. and Mrs. Mark Sandidge. Rebecca Laneand Mark Sandidgeentered into everlasting wedding bliss on Saturday, March 22nd. The couple held their wedding soiree at the Historical Trolley Barn in Inman Park. With spring in the air, the outdoor garden ceremony was beautiful. There was not a dry eye in the house as we witnessed the couple share their custom wedding vows and profess their love for each other.
Following the ceremony, the wedding guests enjoyed a dinner reception inside the venue. The ice blue decor, by Jeffrey Blooms, was amazing. The guests enjoyed dinner, a live jazz band, dancing, and more.
Matrimony Inc.provided “Day of Coordination” for the couple. Thank you to Rebecca and Mark for allowing us to participate in their special day. It was a pleasure to serve you on “The First Day of the Rest of Your Lives Together”.
