Spring & Summer Months Are Fast Approaching!

Spring is here and summer months are fast approaching! If you are planning for 2016 or 2017 you still have time! Here are some great tips to start planning:

1. You must hire a planner! Whether your special day is in 6 months or a year hire a planner. Your professional planner will make your day so much easier with budgeting, booking the right vendors and time line deadlines!

2. Set a realistic budget! Especially if you are planning at the last minute. Realize the time you have to pay for everything will be shorter and deposits will be bigger.

3. Have alternate dates! If you are planning for the summer and spring months, please be aware that dates go faster for venues and other vendors. If you are not prepared for deposits right away, have an alternate date for your special day!

4. Book your biggest vendors first! Sometimes people go backwards and they will book  a dj, florsit or baker first. They are important vendors but to start your planning off right book your planner, venue, and caterer first! This will help with smooth sailing when it's time to book your other vendors.

I hope this helps you for your spring and summer months and beyond. Happy Planning! Contact us today for your planning needs!

I started the year off with vol.2 of Speak Now Or Forever Hold Your Peace relationship forum.. Great crowd but of coarse i wanted my events to improve. I continued to step out the box with my other events such as the wine tastings, sex,sassy,& classy, my debut of desire desserts vol. 1 & 2, business mingles, spades tournament, and how can we forget two speed dating events! While all this was going on i continued my weekly radio show great minds think alike, book club Imaginable Minds, and continued with my catering services. Through all

Many people use the terms: planning, coordination, organization, timelines, etc... Do you know the difference with these words and the type of services you are looking for ? Let Selections Entertainment help you out! Planning: Many people misinterpret wedding and event planning with other terminologies such as coordination.

How Important Is The Word Support?

In our everyday lives we use the word support for many reasons. We encourage and support ourselves and others.  In today's society technology has taken over with twitter, myspace and facebook and many people hide behind that wonderful computer screen for marketing purposes for their business or personal use.  Eventhough in society we shouldn't look for someone's approval but support really runs a long way.  Are the majority of people really there and supporting you or are they just putting together a bunch of words on social media websites to make you sound or look good and deep down inside they are not really happy for you?  There are so many so called businesses on these sites.  Please take the time to get to know someone when conducting business and creating ideas together.  There's a difference when meeting so called business owners on the web and meeting them in person. Also get to know current business owners.  Just because they are in business doesn't mean th
