8 Elements You Need for Your Event Planning Website
If you own an event planning company, you probably have a website (and if you don't, you definitely need one). Here are the aspects you need for your site to be successful:
1. Clear navigation. Your website's navigation lets your clients know how to find the info they need. The simpler it is to get around and read it, the more engaged and interested people will be in your services. A prospective client on your site shouldn't have to spend time figuring out how to work their way around it.
2. An "About Us" page. A general description of an event planning company will not help your business. The "About Us" page on your website should talk about what makes you and your company different. A few questions to answer include: What motivates you? Why do you plan events? What are your interests? What do you love? What inspires you?
3. A professional photograph of you. Event planning is a personal business. So, potential clients want to see how you look and your style. People are more likely to contact you if they feel a connection with you and your website. And if you have other planners working with you, include their photos as well.
4. High quality images. Your website needs photos of events you've done from professional photographers. If you use photos from your smart phone or your own camera, you won't give a professional look and feel to your site.
5. Blog. This helps you connect to your visitors. Your blog will let them know things about your business they didn't know, give them tips and a place for you to share any deals, products and/or new services. Also, you can share links from your blog on your social media accounts. Finally, your blog is the best place to highlight all of your events.
6. Clear and simple to find contact info. It should be very easy for website visitors to find your email and phone number. Although you may have a contact form, still include your email, business address (if applicable), phone number and social media information.
7. Reviews and testimonials. Word of mouth is the best marketing you can get. Having customer reviews and testimonials provides proof that you've planned events before (or have done this many times) and have pleased customers. If other websites have good reviews for your business (like Yelp or Google), include a link to those sites on your website.
8. Have consistent colors, fonts, look and feel. Every page on your website and blog should have uniform colors, fonts and overall style. Prospective clients need a good feel for your style and brand by looking through your site.

At Long Last....Marry Me's New Website is Here ! (featuring our 'team')
I have been working with Stacey for 4 years now and soon after I started, she began mentioning to me how she wanted her website to reflect the growth of the Marry Me team- she wanted her clients and Ottawa to know that Marry Me was run by a team of wedding experts...with Stacey at the helm.
There were a few reasons why Stacey did this. Primarily to give her team the recognition they deserve with all the behind the scenes work they do for her and Marry Me's clients but, it also puts the client at ease knowing that if someone who isn't Stacey is at their meeting or at their wedding or simply returning their call, it is not just an unpaid summer intern that Stacey hired. It is a paid Marry Me employee with an Event Management degree who loves and respects Marry Me's goals and vision as much as Stacey does.
When a team of dedicated individuals makes a commitment to act as one...the sky's the limit !
Please visit our new website and let us know what you think !

Bridal Shopping - How to go about it.
There is no doubt that shopping for your wedding is one of the best parts of being a bride. You get a chance to get to see and try on beautiful things that you always thought were just for lucky few. In addition, you get to turn into reality that dream you have always harboured about your Wedding look.
Whereas you may be torn between incorporating some of the ideas that you picked from observing others brides and getting ready made attire, you need to sit down and, taking your budget into account, decide what will make your day as beautiful and memorable as you want it to be .
Once that is taken care of, the next thing to find out where to get each item that will make you the centerpiece of the wedding.
If you are going for a gown and changing dress that is tailored to your size and taste, you will need to search for fabric .These are has many as the new arcades in the city. All the more reason for you to be clear about the colour and material you want before setting out.
With the exception of bold brides, who may want different colours for their gowns, most brides go for bridal scheme by adding detailing in that colour. This could be in form of flowers, ribbon and decorative stones.
For harmony ‘s sake, be sure to go shopping with your maids so they can chose their fabric with what you want in mind. In addition when you go with your maids, there is a high likelihood you will get a discount from buying in bulk.
There is a variety of materials at shops Queen Mary, Fair Lady Textile, Anky Designers, Shina Collections, Smart Textiles, The palm house, Betuco Uganda Limited, Tailor’s Friend Emporium and JML Bridal Center.
Depending on the material, a meter of bridal white costs about sh13,000 while off-white will cost you sh 15,000. For your maids’ outfits, you may have to spend between sh 5,000 and sh15,000 per metre, depending on the material. Having the dresses tailored will cost between sh40,000 and sh 120,000 depending on design and tailor.
Body fitting gowns cost more as they require a lot of time and care to cut and stitch while ballroom designs cost less to stitch while ballroom designs cost less to put together, although they take up a lot of material.
However, if time is not on your side, you could buy a ready made gown and changing dress. A gown costs between sh600,000 and 1.8m. A visit to bridal paradise, Today’s bridal, Hossana Bridal Center, Lady charlotte, D2i Designs, Best bridal, Kim’ bridal and Roheel Jeweller will give you a variety of gowns to choose from. For a changing dress that will get everyone talking visit stop n’ shop, Sisters’ boutique, Bill and Bobby, Islander boutique, D2i designs. The prices range between sh100,000 and sh800,000.
Ever heard of the saying; “proper prior planning prevents pathetically poor performance?” Most Ugandans are guilty of last-minute booking with no planning at all. This creates a headache for both the couple and the travel agents. Start planning your honeymoon along with your wedding.
Set a budget. Decide whether you would like to spend more on the wedding or the honeymoon. How much money can you spend on the honeymoon? Remember it is possible to be in a particular location but choose the 5-star, 4-star or 3-star option.
Decide what type of honeymoon to take. This is purely based on your personalities. Are you adventurous? Are you the type that prefers to be left alone? Are you water-loving? The choice is yours.
Seek advice from a travel agency. The world of tour and travel even within your own country is complex beyond your imagination. Things like connecting flights are best done by the pros else you end up spending four hours in transit while an agency would have sorted you better. With your budget and ideal vacation in mind, take your ideas and talk them over with a travel agent. A good agent should be able to produce a number of options that will be tailored to your preferences and your budget.
Research your destination before sealing the deal: The internet, the tourist board or travel agency can provide you with information. Check out activity ideas and whether.
Know the logistics before you go. Know the distance between your hotel and all the other attractions you plan on visiting during your honeymoon. Check out hotel amenities.
Find out about necessary vaccinations or disease endemic to your preferred area for honeymooning. Visas, taxes, know it all.
Let everyone know you are on honeymoon. Hotel staff, restaurateurs and drivers should all be informed of the special occasion for your trip. Do not be shy, because divulging this information often results in special discounts, treatment or gifts.

3 Ways to Promote your Offline Event on the Web
- Blog. Blog about your event before, during and after it. Doing so beforehand can let others know about your event and encourage them to learn more or register to attend. By live blogging throughout your event, you can create enthusiasm and buzz for people who weren't able to attend (also, provide a snippet of what they missed; this will encourage them to be on the lookout for the next event). Finally, blogging after can sum up the event while giving info on ones coming up.
- Post event pics on Flickr. Everybody loves to see pictures of themselves (as long as they look good). Posting your event photos on Flicker and tagging them with individuals' names can create interest from those who attended and the people who follow them on different social media outlets.
- Put the event on Facebook. You can post pictures and tag them on Facebook as well. An additional benefit of posting on Facebook is when you tag someone, it shows up on their wall; and anyone who's a friend of a person you tag can see the photo. The idea? This will lead to other people wanting to learn more about the event and attend. Keep in mind that you'll only be able to tag people you're connected to.
