INTRODUCTION TO THE SERIES: Stuff Every Bride Should Know

Hey beautiful bride-to-be,

First off, congratulations! Whether you’re newly engaged, knee-deep in Pinterest boards, or just starting to dip your toes into wedding planning, you’re in the right place. I’m Nicole, wedding planner, logistics queen, and your new behind-the-scenes BFF for this exciting (and sometimes overwhelming) season of life.

Over the years, I’ve helped hundreds of couples plan their dream day. I’ve seen the happy tears, the late-night panics, the venue mishaps, and the magical recoveries. And somewhere along the way, I realized something:

There’s so much stuff every bride should know. But no one really tells her.

That’s why I’m launching this blog series: Stuff Every Bride Should Know.

It’s a collection of bite sized, no fluff, real talk chapters that break down everything I’ve learned from planning weddings, minus the Pinterest pressure and with a whole lot of love.

Each post will feel like we’re having a coffee (or wine!) chat, where I’ll share the things I wish every bride knew before walking down the aisle. From budgeting secrets and stress saving hacks to picking your dream team and navigating awkward guest list drama. it’s all here.

Think of it as your bridal cheat sheet. One blog post at a time, released every week or two, and later turned into a little book you can carry with you throughout your planning journey.

So if you’re ready to plan smarter, feel calmer, and actually enjoy the journey to your “I do,” then stick around. You’ll want to read every single chapter.

Let’s make this the most beautiful ride of your life.


With love,
Nicole

Managing Wedding Guest Lists: Tips to Avoid Unnecessary Stress

Managing a wedding guest list can feel like an overwhelming task. While NM Event Planners typically leaves guest list decisions to the couple, one common issue we see is the challenge of seating arrangements and guest behavior during the reception. In Filipino culture, there can sometimes be the habit of guests attending up until dinner, only to leave before the program is even halfway through, leaving a near-empty reception.
