Let’s face it-planning a wedding takes a lot of time and organization. It’s easy to
see why tasks from setting the budget, to creating the guest list, finding a reception hall, and planning your wedding day ensemble may overwhelm even the most
“together” bride-to-be.
We have hand-picked some of McDonough’s most respected in the Wedding business
and created a Wedding Guide to help ease the process! Local Venues, Wedding
Attire shops, Florists, Bakers, Caterers and more are showcased within this guide so
you can see a little tease of what is offered.

Tips from the Experts
1. Relax, relax, relax. Spa services required. ~ Scarlett’s Retreat
2. Have your facial done at least one week before the wedding. ~ Scarlett’s Retreat
3. No waxing 3 days before the big day. ~ Scarlett’s Retreat
4. One photographer can't capture two points of view at once, and your uncle/cousin may
not know how to take his camera off automatic mode. Hire someone you are confident in,
and can verify references on, because when all the food is gone, the party is over and the
dress is packed up, all you have to look back on, is your photographs. ~ This is You P hotography
5. Taste, try-on, sample, re-check and double check EVERY THING before you pay your
deposit! Don’t let anyone bully you into paying any sooner. ~ Black Tie Formal Wear
6. Set your date and budget first! This will allow you and your vendors a realistic time
frame and number to help guide you through the process
7. The more people at your event, the more it will cost. Try to keep that in mind when
talking to your vendors.
8. HAVE F UN with your wedding planning! Enjoy the experience of planning the most
important day of your life! ~ Taken by Tate
9. A few months before your wedding, have a consultation with your stylist for a trial run.
Be sure to bring any hair accessories and a picture of your dress (if possible) so your
stylist can create the perfect hairstyle for your special day. ~ Foundation Hair Studio
10. For best styling results and hold, shampoo hair the day before the wedding and, if
possible, do not wash the day of. ~ Foundation Hair Studio
