Bridal Show

We had a great time at the Belk show today. Capt. Kirk had the place rocking so that even the sales people were dancing in the aisles. Stephanie of Weddings by Stephanie, JoAnn of Candy Bouquet, Bill of Bridals by Agnes, Rev. Ted of Exceptional Weddings and Gail of Exceptional Wedding Supplies were there too. We had short notice so not all of our members could be there. Weekends are our busy days so we can't always make it to a weekend event. But that is good. It means we are busy and that is what we want to be; busy making your event wonderful. It was good to meet with those of you who came down to see us. We are proud of the work we do and like sharing it with you.

wow! Congratulations to Stephanie

WeddingWire, the nation’s leading wedding technology company, just announced that Weddings by Stephanie, Inc. has won the 2009 Bride’s Choice Awards™!

In its inaugural year, the Bride’s Choice Awards recognizes and honors vendors from the WeddingWire Network that demonstrate excellent quality of service, responsiveness, professionalism, value of cost and flexibility. This year’s recipients represent the top three percent of WeddingWire’s vendor community, which includes over 100,000 wedding vendors from across the US. That means Weddings by Stephanie, Inc. is one of the very best Wedding Planners.

Unlike other awards in which winners are selected by the company, the Bride’s Choice Awards are determined exclusively by recent newlyweds through surveys and reviews.

“We are excited to launch this annual award program to honor high-performing vendors based solely on the experiences of our WeddingWire community,” according to Timothy Chi, WeddingWire’s Chief Executive Officer. “This year’s recipients have set the bar high, exhibiting excellent service and expertise in the wedding industry.”

Weddings by Stephanie, Inc. would like to thank our past clients for speaking on our behalf and helping us win the 2009 Bride’s Choice Award!

Grand Opening

Another of our members is having a grand opening celebration. Although they have been open for three weeks, the Europa Spa has been getting settled in and is now ready to present their face to the world. The Grand Opening is being held on Sunday, February 8th from one to four PM. Refreshments will be served. Come and meet their European trained staff and be pampered. Bring your honey for an early valentine's gift, or stop by to get a gift card to present on the 14th. There will be special opening day discounts. Don't miss this chance to look and feel your best. You deserve it.

Meeting of the Wedding Professionals

We had a great meeting tonight at the Palm Coast Yacht Club. We voted in two new members: Europa Spa on Old Kings Road Palm Coast and Candy Bouquets on Rte 100 in Bunnell. The Europa Spa offers full service Spa delights from head to toe. Superb European luxury at affordable prices. The Candy Bouquet is the source for the most delightful and imaginative candy creations for bouquets, centerpieces and special gifts. We enjoyed the candy very much at the meeting tonight and you wouldn't believe the variety of flavors. We also had elections of officers and Rev. Ted of Exceptional Weddings was elected President, Jerry of Mr. Chocolate Fountain was elected Vice President. Gail of Exceptional Wedding Supplies was elected Secretary and Stephanie of Weddings by Stephanie was elected Treasurer. The Board of Directors will consist of William of Bridals by Agnes, Rev. Capt. Kirk of DJ Enterprises, JoAnne of Candy Boquet and Leesa of the Perfect Wedding Guide. We missed Rod who couldn't come because he had to be home with the wife and new baby girl. We will all work hard together to create the best weddings ever.
