Your Engaged! What's next???



So your engaged, congratulations! Now the fun begins, and YES it can be fun. 
There are many things to do to get ready for a wedding and I suggest using a 
wedding planning book. While there are many out there, by far my favorite is 
WEDOLOGY, By Desiree Moore Dent owner and lead designer of Dejanae
Events in Chicago. She has been featured in many magazines, Chicago Bride 
being one of them, in which she won an award for an event design contest and
she is also one of the co-stars of   !

Knowing Desiree personally, I know that her book covers it all. She has anything
and everything you need in her "WEDology Notebook". 

 This is what Amazon says about WEDology:  The WEDology Notebook: For The Budget-Chic Bride is the newest and by far the most innovative bridal planner to date. An immense amount of wedding planning information has been capture in a Notebook format making it easy for working women to carry in their purse, tote or briefcase without being weighed down.





















So if you are looking for a wedding guide, I know that this is a great asset for all brides. WEDology
can be found on Amazon.com for $23.99

ISSE BBQ on the Beach and Catamaran Trip


As usual today was like no other. Stacie pulls out all the stops, classes, then a BBQ
on the beach, so we had BBQ" Box" lunches on the beach for our last day. Now Jade 
had quite the spread out for us, and the area was all ours, to eat, swim or just hang around.

Looking down from one of the rooms onto the BBQ Beach lunch.

More fun on the Catamaran Cruise

I can't tell you how much I learn at these ISS experiences, I have met many
people from all over the United States, and many other countries.
I consider them all my friends and know if I need advice I can
go to them and ask.
Thank you Stacie Ivers Francombe for bringing a much needed service
to the wedding and event industry.

Gala night at ISSE Cancun 2012







I've gotten out of sequence here in my posts on ISSE Cancun 2012, I should've posted our  Beach BBQ and Catamaran trip. I promise it will be next. So, the last night, our gala night. Started out with appetizers, schmoozing, drinking and taking pictures of old and new friends


Hallway to our pre event party

Food was fabulous!

Partying the night away























As you can tell that not only are we learning, and I mean learning. We have an awesome time together too. I have made some lifelong friends, ones I can count on if I have a question, and I don't have to worry about them not wanting to share their secrets. We support each other.

If you get a chance to go to a ISS meeting please do, you won't forget it.
