Episode notes
Floral Costs Are Often Underestimated
- Flower costs can be triple what you expect, especially outside major flower markets.
- Cities without big flower markets require importing flowers, increasing costs significantly.
Lighting Controls Event Mood
- Lighting sets the mood by influencing guest comfort and energy.
- For parties encouraging dancing, sophisticated lighting boosts atmosphere; simpler lighting suffices for dinners.
Prioritize Music and DJ Quality
- Invest more in music than even the wedding cake; music shapes emotional memories.
- Hire a DJ who loves music and reads the crowd to maintain great vibes throughout.
