You get the e-mail, from a client, who is looking for a professional wedding planner to handle all the details for his up and coming wedding, He is in the United Kingdom, and tells you what the vision is and ask if you can handle the details for them? They give you all the details by email,and your suppose to email them back with your quote, and tell them how you can provide them with their request. In just a few days, you receive a certified letter and Money Order for your services.

So you think that everything is great…! So you email the client and tell them the check was received and… they say ” Could you please send 3000 or so to other vendor, that is waiting on his funds to get his job done! Here is the scam …Money Order looks good,but it is forged! What they are hoping for is that you will send them the cash back, and your left with owing the bank all this money!

I was lucky enough to have just read up on this scam, that was posted on the Association for Wedding Professionals International website. I have enclosed a picture of the fake check. Now I can spot them onsite..and I like to collect them just for kicks and giggles.

Just a little FYI for my wedding professional friends.

Today’s Wedding Etiquette Tip

The list cutting strategy

The greatest impact for cost of wedding ,is the reception, here is a quick and easy tip on cutting the cost with the guest list!

All those that are involved in inviting guest should write down the name of the guest whom they have invited,ranking by priorities..importance..ect.

Now, all  of those whom has made their list, look them over!  Cross out any duplicates.

Then add up the names, that are left, you can compare that number with you estimated guest count

If you think your over the limit, figure how many names you need to cut.

Have each person cut and assigned number of names, starting from the bottom of his or her personal list.

We all know that the size of the guest list could become overwhelming, so this is one way that family can help

with the guest list, and sticking to your budget..

Best Regard,

   One thing that sets wedding photographers apart is their ability to tell a story with their pictures.  When a bride and groom look at their wedding albums they want to relive the day moment by moment.  As wedding photographers we must provide a series of images the help the bride and groom relive their wedding day in a story format.

    Bellow is a few images that are all tied together.  These pics are a small part of what would be considered “The Wedding Story”.  For these shots I used a slower shutter speed and higher ISO to let in the ambient lights behind.  The flash gave me the sharp image.

 

Bec and Jesse was the first 2009 wedding booking that I got. So naturally I was quite excited about the wedding. Ceremony and reception is in Coonara Springs, which is located in Dandenong Ranges. The day start with a heavy rain on my way over, though it ease up a bit by the time I got to the girls. Amazingly, the rain stopped completely just in time for our outdoor ceremony. As soon as the ceremony finish, guess what? It rained again. So we continue with family pictures indoor, and when that done, the rain had stopped so we can walk the lush garden and take pictures among the wonderful trees.

Weddings in the Autumn, A fabulous array of rich colors, inspired by the changing season of nature! I look around and see , the leaves falling to the ground, where they lay in abundance, mounds of golds, coppers, red, oranges, and yellows, all so delicately fallen against one another. The crisp air surrounds us, giving us a feeling of inner peace, and happiness.  Setting the perfect inspiration for a fall wedding. 

 Made me think of  a mountain retreat, with a crackling fires, urns of fresh  flowers of Rovers, Mums, and purple bellflower, or a small intimate back yard gathering, with  gold metallic candelabra or copper colored linens, crystal  stemware, and  tall bellowing topiary center pieces in the rich colors of autumn.

All of this creative and inspired energy, came from the color of a falling leaf, and nature.  Which makes me believe that we don’t have to look far to find inspiration!

Never thought saturated pics would look so good for an Indian wedding. Click here for more.

Ku sent me this link as a possible place we could go to post the wedding. It’s really beautiful, but more suited to a larger family holiday perhaps as it’s a home that’s let out as one rather than a hotel that’s let out in rooms.

I love the Tanishq campaigns. Their make-up is lovely. Very well done. Found someone who did one of their campaigns, Nahush.

Some make-up contacts in Mumbai that I haven’t tried but could be useful.
Nahush – www.nahush.com (charges 10 k per event)
Zubair – www.maquiller.net
Nisha Soni – www.nishasoni.com
Neha – 9820 271275 (charges 12 k per event), does make up for advertising photo shoots.
M.A.C – I find their make-up trendy and a bit loud. And the staff overwhelming and cold. But do a trial and try.
VLCC – I visited the VLCC Day Spa at Juhu. They have a bridal package. You could do a trial and check them out.
SHISEIDO – visited the Juhu Shoppers Stop and found the consultants at Shiseido very helpful. They charge 10k worth of products and a Make-Up person comes for free. Do a trial. Their products and colours are lovely.

I was thinking of placing my jewelry in these boxes for the wedding. Would I get them in Zhaveri Bazar. How I miss being in Calcutta now. All this was so accessible. Perhaps I should ask my friend to get me some from Indore. Hmm.. Any suggestions?

Have no idea what this will look like on the neck, but this piece from Princess Nupur Rana’s Haute Joaillerie collection is arresting.

Loved her sari. And how well the embroidered chunni went with the sari.

I’ve bought a pink and yellow soft kanjeevaram sari for the wedding. It’s a bright pretty Indian pink with a yellow gold border and a yellow pallu, and has paiselys all over.

Now, a question. Should I take the yellow pallu over my head or get a similar chunri done for my head? I think I’ll need the chunri so that it can be tied to V’s stole while we do the pheras. What do you guys think? Will try and post picture of the wedding sari soon.

Another one, this time a Kanjeevaram from Andrea Photos. Think it looks great. I think I will take a veil. Hmm…
