Q. I just moved to Winston-Salem and my fiance and I are planning on getting married here. I would like to hire a wedding planner to help with the process, but don’t know where to begin to look for one. If you have any suggestions I would be very appreciative!! Right now we are looking into having the wedding at Reynolda Gardens and the reception at Forsyth Country Club – any other suggestions would be great as well!!! Thank you SO much for your time and help.
A. A wedding planner is valuable resource for every bride, but especially a bride in a new town. You have already found one good source, this web site, www.wxii12.com, is a good place to begin. Click the link on Planning to find many options. I am listed as Weddings By Design, 765-6331, and am available, along with others who will give you good advice. If you have any questions about any wedding service provider, be sure to check with the Better Business Bureau for cautions about recent problems. A smart bride plans, organizes, and communicates. You are off to a good start with definite plans for the ceremony and reception. A word of caution, be sure to have a Plan B in case of rain for the ceremony. Best Wishes.
