Why should you hire a wedding planner

Congratulations on your engagement ! Now the journey really begins. I can imagine that your still in the after glow of being engaged, posting that ring shot on instagram 😉  and calling all of your friend girls to let them know it's their time to stand by your side. But what's the next step?  Should you be selecting a dress, finding a venue, selecting a cake designer. The answer is really none of the above. It's sitting down with a seasoned wedding professional, chatting it up about every little detail from budgets, time lines, vendors, details....did we mention details. A wedding planner will be able to assist you in creating a budget, and on occasion holding you accountable to staying in budget. They will save you hours in researching vendors, most planners have a preferred vendor list and have cultivated relationships with them and can assure top notch service from them. They will be the gentle guide to what I call the 3 W's  behind the moment , who, what, and when of  wedding planning. Check list creation, no matter the service option you select,  you will have task to complete to ensure that every detail big and small is covered. It's truly a collaboration. They will also guide you on wedding etiquette matters,  who knew that registry cards don't go in the invitations ....( P.s. they really don't ).  They will attend vendor consults and ask tons of questions on your behalf, so that you are equipped to make an informed decision. These things get you TO wedding day, but then it's the finale. Pulling together every detail that you have discussed, and allowing you, your family and friends to enjoy the day celebrating with you and your intended. Not worrying about if the DJ is stuck in traffic, if the linen is the correct color, or any issues that should arise and need to be addressed ( and guess what ....their is always something that needs to be addressed ...ask me how I know LOL ! ) 

Now that you have heard some of the 411 of what we do,  give us a ring to schedule your free initial consult. If you don't know it yet  ....we love chatting it up over champagne and cupcakes.  

Lyceum Wedding of S + S

This weekend could not have been  any better, the weather was breezy, the sun shine was perfect

as S + S exchanged vows surrounded by family and friends. The bride selected every detail from the deep sangria tones,  and lush greens, such a beautiful combination for their Moment on the island. We worked with an amazing group of vendors and we will be shouting them all out soon, until then here  is the non-pro sneak peek. Enjoy !

We are also excited that the images will also be shared in Lavaliere Bridal Magazine. ( WOOOO HOOOO ) Now that were done gushing over the details , here are a few of our favorite images. Enjoy !

A real Moment with your Galveston wedding planner

Every once in a while we like to pull the curtain back behind the scenes. Well....today is a Moment for the books. If you have spent any time with me you know that I am a wife to the Mr. and a mom to the 3BG's ( Three Brown Girls). This afternoon my original brown girl will walk across the stage to receive her high school diploma. I know I'm a little partial but she's pretty cool y'all ! I know there will be tears but they are happy tears to commemorate this Moment. If I could sum it up in one word it would be thankful. SOooo Ms. Durham let's do this thing !! We love you to the Moon and back. 

Mom & Dad ( yeah ! today it's personal) 

Congratulations from your Galveston wedding planner

This weekend the island was covered in rain, but that did not stop the Moments team from celebrating with two couples, in two different locations.  They both will depart on their honeymoons today BUT we wanted to take a little time to congratulate Z + O and  C + M

"Through the storms of life, may your love for one another be steadfast and strong. Wishing you joy and happiness on your wedding day. Congratulations! "
