We’re starting a fun new series on EAD – Library Vendor Spotlights.  The goal is to give you a glimpse into the minds of our fantastic Library vendors and let you get to know some amazing people from the wedding industry just a little bit better (and hopefully of course to give you some inspiration along the way!).

Our first Library vendor spotlight is the utterly adorable Andria Lewis of Andria Lewis Events.  Her blog is called The Planner Pages and she’s based out of Memphis, TN but serves all of Tennessee, Mississippi and Arkansas.  You can find her on Twitter too!

EAD: What is the single best piece of advice you can give to brides and grooms as they begin to plan their event?
AL: Slow.Down. My biggest frustration for (not with) brides/couples is that as soon as they become engaged they run out and start visiting every, single, little venue they’ve ever passed on the street. They begin having appointments with florists and caterers who either are not their style or who are way out of their price range. Then, when they become overwhelmed and frustrated they call a wedding planner. I hear SO often, “Oh, why didn’t I hire you from the beginning?!”

Even if a couple is not hiring a wedding planner, I want them to know that it is most important to slow down and do some research and be flexible in your dates and wants. It is also important to know that the word ‘perfect’ does not exist in the world of weddings. Your wedding will be great! But, it won’t be perfect. And that’s okay.

The Library has been updated with more fabulous wedding vendor links this week, and the event planning page is completely updated with everyone’s cities and states! Remember that listings on the Library are absolutely free, so that we can provide you with the most comprehensive wedding vendor listings possible. If you would like to be added to the Library or have a vendor you would like to recommend, simply contact us!

If you are a vendor and would like to participate in our new expanded listing program, contact us and we’ll get you all set up.

Lots of changes going on in the Library.  First of all, we’re working hard to add cities to the listings {all of the videography listings have been updated – go take a look!}.  If you are a vendor in the Library it would be so helpful if you could comment below or contact me with your city – thank you! 

We’re also working hard to get the city guides up and running for you.   I’m still looking for brides and vendors who would like to contribute to the following cities:

* Seattle
* St. Louis
* Charlotte
* Indianapolis
* Boston
* Chicago

Please contact me if you are interested in blogging!

Last but not least, we’ve updated the Library with lots of fabulous new links. Remember that listings on the Library are absolutely free, so that we can provide you with the most comprehensive wedding vendor listings possible. If you would like to be added to the Library or have a vendor you would like to recommend, simply contact us!  If you are a vendor and would like to participate in our new expanded listing program, contact us and we’ll get you all set up.

Hi all!  I wanted to give you an update on where we are with the Library city guides. My goal is to have at least 2-3 brides and 2-3 vendors for each city contributing on a regular basis, as well as the ability for anyone to guest blog and/or submit vendor reviews.

So far, we have a great deal of interest in Boston and will definitely be moving forward with that guide.  If you are a bride or vendor interested in blogging and contributing to the Boston city guide please contact me asap so we can chat.

We also have several Seattle and Charlotte vendors and brides interested, but still need a few more to make those cities definite.  Again, please contact me if you would like to participate.

Other cities that drew interest:

St. Louis
Indianapolis
Cleveland
Atlanta
Austin
Miami
Baltimore
Chicago
Phoenix

I’d be committed to working with as many as 5 cities at inception, should there be enough participation and need.

Can’t wait to hear from you!

xo,
E.

Hi everyone! I’m looking to revamp the Library and would love your input and participation.

One of the things that I have long been interested in adding are city guides. Because EAD is first and foremost about community involvement, my goal would be for both brides and vendors to write articles about planning a wedding in their city, including detailed vendor reviews, tips, real weddings, etc. This way, the Library would not only be an awesome resource for those planning a wedding and looking for vendors in ___-town, but also a fabulous source of inspiration for all of us. I’d like the city guides to initially focus on areas that don’t have a huge amount of blog resources devoted to them already.

With that in mind, if you are a bride-to-be or vendor interested in contributing or a recent bride interested in recapping your wedding and you are located in the following metro areas, please contact me and let’s chat.  If there is a metro area that you are very interested in having a guide for, let me know that too!

Boston
Charlotte
Portland
Austin
Denver
Indianapolis
Oklahoma City
Seattle
Nashville

I’d also love to hear from vendors whose work is nation-wide (ie – stationers, calligraphers) who would be interested in blogging.

Last but not least, if you have any suggestions for features that you would like to see in the Library, I would love to hear them.

The ability to provide the city guides and any new functionality will depend on the response that I get, so hopefully enough of you are interested in making the Library a great resource to allow this little project to get off the ground!
