Over the holidays you or someone you know might have got engaged! Congratulations! I personally don’t know much about weddings (other than planning mine eight years ago), but my friend Rebecca from New Creations Wedding Design & Coordination is a premiere Northwest wedding planner and she agreed to do a six-part series sharing some of her secrets for saving money on your big day! She is soooo good. We are very lucky that she’s agreed to do this series – her insider tips are so valuable. Check back every Wednesday at 11 a.m. from now through Valentine’s Day for the latest topic. . . 

We’ll start off this week with a short introduction from Rebecca: As a devoted reader of Queen Bee Coupons, the first thing you will want to know about your wedding is how to SAVE MONEY! Rest assured, I am here to help!

Here’s the plan. Over the next six weeks, I will bring you a unique series of cost saving tips on how to plan your wedding on a budget. We will discuss ‘big bucket vendors’ each week such as invitations, flowers, photography, venue, and catering. However, if you are a bride who has a specific cost cutting question, I will be more than happy to answer any individual questions you may have.

For specific questions, or to weigh in on topics with tips or tricks that you have found useful for your wedding day, head on over to the New Creations Wedding Facebook page, and become a fan of my page today to start the conversation or just leave a comment on this page. I look forward to truly helping you plan the wedding of your dreams with a budget that won’t break the bank!

Now I know that Queen Bee readers LOVE a great giveaway, and this series will be no exception!! At the end of the six weeks – we’ll be doing a giveaway that I guarantee with come in handy for that registry of yours! So watch for that in February.

About Rebecca
My name is Rebecca Grant, and I am the owner of New Creations Wedding Design & Coordination. I have been in the awesome wedding biz for over six years now, beginning my career in Honolulu, Hawaii, then moving back home to Seattle and launching my business here in November 2009. Because of my experience in Hawaii, my specialty is working with Asia-Pacific Brides; specifically, Chinese, Japanese, Filipino, Hawaiian and Samoan weddings, however, I do work a good portion of the time with traditional Western couples.

The focus of New Creations is to truly have each wedding be unique and tell your love story in one amazing day. My goal is to have your guests know you better after leaving your wedding than they did before. My business caters to what the couple needs in providing anything from ‘Day-of planning services’, to ‘Complete Design & Coordination’, to Consulting work with Asian customs and traditions. I have been the featured speaker at Wedding Network USA – a nationwide organization for wedding professionals, and constantly keep up on current wedding trends through professional organizations and continually pushing myself to create amazing events. I am also the exclusive referred wedding planner of Pottery Barn Bellevue Square (where-hint, hint-if you register there you will receive a 1-hour complimentary wedding design consult with me! Approximately 1 week later you will receive a customized idea board putting our conversation about you wedding design in photos to help guide your vision).

I have been so incredibly blessed to be doing what I love every day, and I look forward to sharing that knowledge with you!
