WEDDING PLANNING by Kathy Forbes

Wedding Planning: Five Easy Steps & The Secret to Pull it Together

Everything you need to know to plan your perfect unique wedding. This is not your typical wedding planning book. Chapter titles alone will tell you what needs to be done, and the subtitles break it down further. The book includes tips, advice, stories, templates, and notebook to keep track of everything. All the other books, magazine articles, Instagram and Pinterest timeline posts state on the "day of" to have a good breakfast. They don't mention the people that take care of all the duties and tasks throughout the day so you can be VIP guests at your own wedding. The five easy steps and how they relate to each other is the foundation of this book, which will make sure you have an educational, memorable, stressless, wonderful experience throughout the whole process. The secret is having a planned schedule that catches everything, and a specific person in charge on the "day of" that pulls it off while you enjoy with the guests. Let me show you how to perfect your wedding planning experience. Waiting to your wedding day is just too late to realize the importance of this thought process and having a specific/special go-to-person working the "day of" on your behalf. You will enjoy the days up to the wedding as much as the day itself, as this book helps make it all come true.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Kathy Forbes knew that her youngest daughter was going to be engaged soon, so she enrolled at BCIT and earned her wedding and event planning credentials in 2005. She changed careers from corporate sales analyst to something that brings meaning and joy to her life every day. In no time, she put it to good use: one daughter married in 2006 and the other in 2007.

She retired in 2020 but continued to expand her world. Kathy is an artist in several mediums, styles, and subjects, as well as a miniature hobbyist—both passions stemming from a desire to preserve and share meaningful memories. She travels, gardens, and enjoys reading and self-education, constantly expanding her world by trying new experiences. Her latest adventure was a silversmith ring class, which she invited her granddaughter to join.

Kathy wrote this book as both a personal keepsake and an educational reference to help others. Her goal is to make planning a wedding a wonderful experience. 

Her life’s motto is: be interested and interesting.
