The level of service you require will be determined by Pizzazz! based on the number of event components and the amount of planning in that component. Please see list below:
Venue Selections
How many guests will actually come and how many will comfortably fit in a venue? Do we have space for table service or a buffet? How should the tables be set up, how should the room be lit and decorated, and how will my guests perceive the evening? What location will best suit my needs and budget? Pizzazz! will guide you to the best venues and help you set the logistics in place for a successful celebration.
Vendor Recommendations and Coordination
With so many florists, caterers, photographers, and other professionals to choose from, how do you know who will give you the results that you want? Shelley’s network has given her the opportunity to work with many vendors and she can help you narrow the selection to the vendors most qualified to provide the quality products that will enhance your wedding. Once your vendors are selected and the plans in place, Shelley works with your team of vendors to keep everyone on track for a perfect event.
Wedding Party Attire and Fittings
Shelley helps you prepare months in advance to choose your gown, tiara, veil, and accessories that leave no doubt in your groom’s mind that he is marrying the most beautiful bride in the world. Shelley will schedule gown fittings and practice applications of makeup and hairstyles with the veil to make sure there are no surprises on the day of the wedding.
Make-up & Hair
One of the most important decisions regarding the photography and the way your look holds during a busy day is your choice of a make-up style artist, and the appropriate choice of hairdressing to complement your gown and headpiece. Shelley can assist you with trial run-throughs with vendors who specialize with brides and their attendants. Shelley will assist with scheduling salon services in the wedding timeline as needed for the bride, groom, the attendants, and family members.
Themes, Entertainment, and Itineraries
Putting your vision and personality into an event makes the day memorable. Shelley helps you to find just the right details and people to bring life and joy to your event. Then, she sets a realistic itinerary for the event to make sure all goes according to your plan.
Transportation and Hotel Accommodations
With access to a variety of providers, Shelley will arrange transportation for the wedding party and guests as requested. Shelley can negotiate room rates for blocks of rooms, hospitality suites, and special services including delivery of amenity baskets to guests. Shelley can also assist with wedding night reservations for the bride and groom.
Etiquette, Invitations, and Newspaper Announcements
Shelley knows how to best handle even the stickiest of social situations and will advise you on any areas you request. She helps you with wording for your invitations, creation of maps, calligraphy needs, and all other stationery requirements. Shelley is familiar with newspaper requirements for announcements and will help you with the text and images to make this process simpler.
Guest Response Confirmation
As needed, Shelley will track your responses from guests and confirm plans with guests who do not indicate whether they will be attending. This enables you to provide accurate guest counts for the caterer and other vendors that might be affected.
