Workshop Wednesday: How to Plan an Awesome Wedding, Regardless of the Budget

We're excited to welcome back Amy Karlin, founder and creative director of Ottawa's own Splendid Events, back to Wed By Hand this year. Last year Amy's workshop was incredibly popular & you'll want to join us for this must-see wedding workshop about planning your wedding.  She'll be focusing on how to plan a polished wedding on a small budget.  And, very importantly: how to set and stick to a budget.  Because we all know each of us, hiding under the surface, has a dash of Bridezilla and a pinch of princess, just waiting to find that perfect pair of shoes, diamond earrings or dress that we just can't live without, and we'll have to sneak in the back door and claim, "this old thing, I've had it for years!"  

Amy has been planing, coordinating and hosting events professionally, and as a past-time for years, and after having a ball planning her own wedding in 2010 she got hooked on weddings, started Splendid Events, and has never looked back.  She has provided countless brides and grooms with unique and fabulous eco-conscious, wedding planning, all the while helping to grow and support Ottawa based businesses.  

Amy will help us keep on track by providing each attendee with a budget planning worksheet, which we'll also be posting for your convenience on the Wed By Hand Blog.  Amy will walk you through the sheet, plus her top tips for staying sane during the planning process.  She'll also be showing off examples of quality wedding attire, decor and other such stuff that can be found locally for great prices.  This workshop will be filled with insider's tips you won't want to miss!
