Another fabulous downtown venue! Houston Center Club

Photobucket

Stepping off the elevators into the warm, inviting lobby of the Houston Center Club, you can only imagine how incredible your wedding will be. It offers a great area for your guests to mingle, while they treat themselves to beverages and hors d'oeuvres until the bridal party arrives and dinner is served.

After the toasts have been made and the cake has been cut, dance the night away on the dance floor, then retire to your room at the beautiful Four Seasons hotel that is directly connected to the Houston Center Club by walkway. This alone makes this an ideal location for weddings with many out-of-town guests!

Simplify your wedding planning!

Are you recently engaged, trying to enjoy the happy times, but feeling overwhelmed by all the ideas, information, and magazines family and friends have passed your way?  Here's an idea from Crystal with Professional Socialites:  Tear out your favorite ideas and forget about the rest!

Photobucket

Sit on the floor with all your wedding magazines and when you see a picture of something you like, tear it out!  It can be the color, the style of a dress, the favor, or the photo style; whatever drew your attention to that picture...tear it out.  Keep all these pictures in a file and once you are done going through all your magazines start organizing and downsizing.  Separate the pictures in to groups to organize them for different elements of your wedding.  Then, as you go through each group, get rid of the pictures that you've lost interest in and NEVER visit them again. This is the only way to move forward.

You'll slowly start to see your image come together and it will be a lot easier on you and your poor bridesmaids that have been trying to talk you off a cliff and wiping away your tears.  Once you see your image, the details will come to you.  It will feel right and when you get to a point where you once again feel overwhelmed, don't forget to put this tip to practice and get back to enjoying your engagement!  You don't want to ever forget these precious days.

I hope this idea is helpful to all our recently engaged brides out there!
