Tightwad Tuesday by Laurie Cohen

Welcome back for another money saving tip for your wedding.

 If champagne isn't your favorite, simply toast with your cocktail.  Or wine. Or water.  Nix the champagne, which often costs $50-100 per bottle and let your guests toast with the drink they got from the bar right before sitting down for dinner.  Champagne is so elegant and fun, but many people prefer not to mix it in with whatever they drink the rest of the evening.  

A Note from our Clients by Laurie Cohen

Any wedding planner will tell you, we work long hours and the pay, really isn't that great once you break it down by the hour.  But there is a reason we do what we do.  It is INCREDIBLE to be a part of our couples' weddings.  Sip and Twirl has always advocated equality and planned wedding for LGBT couples before it was "legal" in Arizona. Brandy and Kristie's wedding was our first lesbian wedding with an Arizona marriage license.  Needless to say there were some tears...

We just read their thank you note:

****

To Laurie and & Sip and Twirl Crew,

You ladies have been so amazing! You have made this experience so enjoyable for us! It was such a relief to give you the reins, know it was going to be perfect and not have to worry. 
Thank you for being so open minded, warm and accepting. The world could learn a thing or two from Sip and Twirl.  We will miss you ladies!! You are totally amazing.  

Love, Brandy and Kristie

****

  B&K- There was nothing to "accept".  We are who we are.  We love you! XOXOXO
