IT'S FINALLY HERE!
I am so excited to share with y'all a little project I have been working on these past few weeks.
For a while now I have been thinking of doing several blog posts featuring wedding vendors in the Dallas & Fort Worth area.
So, that's just what I am going to do!
For the next few weeks I will be posting blogs with Q&A style interviews of wedding professionals in the Dallas/Fort Worth area.
Kicking off our blog series is the lovely and oh so talented, Whitney Bailey.
Meet Whitney!
Whitney is the owner of Chic Fleur Weddings and Event's in Dallas, Texas.
Whitney welcomed me to DFW with open arms and I am convinced that her warmness and fun loving spirit is what makes her a top notch wedding planner and coordinator.
One of the things that I love about Whitney is her genuine heart and amazing organization skills!
It's clear to see that Whitney loves what she does and because of this she provides her clients with phenomenal services.
Whitney is most certainly an assist to any bride and groom who hires her!
So, lets get to know Whitney!
Ellen Ashton: Why Did you start your business?
Whitney: I’m a firm believer in “do what you love” and that is exactly what I did! With a background in design and the love for people and hospitality, I thought I would give weddings a try. I love the idea of creating an event that brings two people together and is one of the most special days in their lives.
Ellen Ashton: How did your first client find you?
Whitney: I think my first client found me on theknot.com. I was also very lucky to have family and friends support me and refer me to anyone they knew was getting married.
Ellen Ashton: Do you service Dallas or Fort. Worth, or both?
Whitney: We will travel wherever our bride wants to get married. A majority of our brides get married in Dallas but we do have some Fort Worth brides. We also have a few destination weddings on the books for 2016/2017 and we are so excited for this!
Ellen Ashton: How do you survive the wedding day?
Whitney: With the perfect timeline, some fantastic vendors and a Venti coffee I am good to go!
Ellen Ashton: What is your favorite 2016 wedding trend?
Whitney: My favorite 2016 trend is the “garden look”. I am all about a lush floral garland for your head table and lots of greenery.
Ellen Ashton: What is your most favored color palette for weddings this year?
Whitney: I am loving the combo of lavender ivory and greenery.
Ellen Ashton: What is your favorite television show?
Whitney: I am a huge Grey’s Anatomy fan and The Bachelor fan! I have been watching both shows since the beginning so I will forever be a far.
Ellen Ashton: Wine or Ice-cream?
Whitney: For sure wine (specifically a good Cabernet). Although what’s this I hear about ice-cream wine? I need to try this!
Ellen Ashton: What is your most favored package you offer to couples?
Whitney: My favorite package is of course our Full Planning in addition to our Design Package. I love getting to know the couple and being able to insert pieces into their wedding that resemble them. With a huge passion in design I love to help create an unimaginable experience for both the couple and their guests.
Wedding planners/coordinators work hard behind the scenes before and during the wedding day. They keep you on budget, find you good deals and hustle months before and during the wedding day. They insure that you get to experience your dream wedding and get to soak up every special moment with your family and friends. Who wouldn't want this?!
Let me just tell you, it takes a village to make a wedding day happen and a good planner like Whitney is key for a smooth wedding day.
Each and every wedding vendor is SO IMPORTANT. I hope this blog series will help brides of all kinda find the perfect vendor for them!
