Chuppah Set Up

 
Chuppah set up for Jewish cermonies can be a tricky thing. Because there are so many different looks to a chuppah your rental company may not entirely understand what you're wanting to achieve unless specific pcitures and words are used to describe your vision. And even that isn't always enough! Some are draped in cloth with special uplighting, others are simple with pole covers around 4 poles and a tallit (cloth) providing the canopy. When it comes to a chuppah covered with draping, make sure your rental company knows that no poles are to show. Unfortunately for one of my clients, the rental company had a hard time envisioning completely covered poles, even after pcitures were given to them. Also, most if not all chuppahs are to have 3 or all 4 sides open depending on the style, since both sets of parents are typically under the chuppah and the bridal party stands during the ceremony.  Here is a before picture showing incorrect set up and a picture taken (of one corner) after we (along with Carolina Curran of The Phoenix) worked on it to cover the pole. All 4 poles on this chuppah were incorrectly set up. After we put our special touch on it the finished product was much prettier which resulted in a very happy bride!

A Venue Coordinator vs. A Wedding Coordinator

Unfortunately, things haven't changed much in the wedding industry regarding the confusion between a venue coordinator and a wedding coordinator. Couples still seem very confused between these two roles and end up not hiring a wedding coordinator after speaking with their venue. Their day ends up in disappointment because they assumed they would have that one, key person to go to and rely on for their entire wedding day. Instead, they have to wait until they walk through their venue doors to receive some coordination by their venue coordinator or banquet captain, who's primary responsibility is to the get the meal out on time and at an ideal temperature.
