A Great Resource for any bride planning a wedding in Charleston

The time has come!  Tonight was the launch party and booksigning for the new book  “Bride’s Advisor Charleston: Everything you need to create your dream wedding in Charleston”.  The authors, Suzette Latsko and Dianne Shaver, were on hand to sign copies of the book.  The event was hosted at the fabulous Charleston Harbor Resort and Marina (a great wedding/reception venue), there was great food, nice music playing from the dj, and the most drop dead gorgeous floral centerpieces from Karen Powell, owner and head florist at Summerville’s OK Florist (established in 1947, ok was a “nifty” new catchword and didn’t mean so-so like it might today…they are anything but so-so).

I had been able to see the book on Suzette’s laptop several months ago…but nothing can match seeing it in person and holding it in your hands.  The text is very informative and will give a bride a good sense of what really goes into planning a wedding.  There are bits of wisdom, honest facts, and opinions gleaned through years of working in weddings.  There are blank forms for the bride to fill in her own information as she plans her wedding and a pocket at the very back of the book for contracts and other important forms.   As she plans, she can keep her details organized by utilizing this planner. 

All of the vendors in this book are hand-selected for top caliber talent.  I have to say, I am honored to be in the company of all of these great vendors.  The images throughout the book are beautiful, creative, and really add to the experience of this planner.  The caterers, florists, cake, stationary vendors, etc.  are all people with whom I have worked or have heard others com plementing their work.  This book truly represents the best of the best of the Charleston wedding market.

I hope any bride who is planning a wedding in Charleston…or wants ideas for how we Charlestonians do things, needs to get this book.  It is available locally at Borders and online at: www.bridesadvisorcharleston.com
