I plan weddings professionallly everyday- but planning my own has been such a different experience! I think I'm driving Sandra at NH crazy- she's been very helpful, we just work on different time frames! I'm doing a small wedding with only twenty guests- but we actually booked our travel arrangements before finalizing that wedding date with Sandra. If you have the time- I'd recommend actually booking the wedding first, as it would probably decrease stress levels and the number of frantic emails to Sandra Our guests did get a great deal on travel arrangements though
We chose the NH because it's not mainstream- but still offers 5-star quality. I haven't seen it, and won't until we arrive with our wedding guests. I'd be happy to keep you posted on my wedding experience with them. Also- I'd be happy to email you the wedding book I was sent. It looks lilke something they only send after the initial confirmation- and includes cake, flowers, and dinner options.
Let me know what I can do to help!
