World Kitchen Presents: Erika Beckwith and Robin Hunt
Cocktails and Conversation hosts Erika Beckwith and Robin Hunt know how stressful the wedding-planning process can be. After all, over the past decade, they’ve done it hundreds of times for their own clients in the Detroit and Atlanta areas. However, says Erika, “Our advice to you is take a breath, make yourself a French martini and calm down. Planning your big day can seem like an overwhelming task, but if you break it down into bite-sized pieces, it can be manageable. The first question you need to ask yourself is, Do I see my wedding as modern and contemporary, or classic and traditional? After that, do I envision it taking place in the spring, summer, fall or winter? And then, what would be my ideal number of guests?”

World Kitchen Presents Wedding Day Radio: Samantha Goldberg
If you know what’s good for you, you won’t arrive late at a wedding planned by Samantha Goldberg of Style Network. “My biggest peeve is people who walk in as the bride is about to walk down the aisle and they’re trying to get in front of her so they don’t miss her approaching the alter,” she tells Wedding Podcast host Robert Allen. “But I just tell them, ‘You are not going. You are so not going. You’re going to wait, because that’s really disrespectful to the bride.’ So many times I’ve seen guests come into the church, scurry to the wall and try to race the bride down aisle.”

World Kitchen Presents Wedding Day Radio: Steve Paster
Before the dress or caterer or cake or even preacher is booked, your guests have got to know to save the date for your wedding. So ordering invites is one of the first things couples need to do after getting engaged. But not all stationers are the same, says Steve Paster of Alpine Creative Group. “Most invitation boutiques are brokers. You walk in and look at books, and you work with a graphic designer. Then they turn around and send out the order to their vendors,” he tells Wedding Planning Radio host Jeannie Uyanik. “But in my company, we’re the broker and manufacturer under one roof, so our timelines are a bit quicker than most people would be accustomed to. There are some invites we can manufacture in one week. Then there are very complex invitations that might involve mounting, layering, dye-cutting, laser cutting—those generally take about four weeks.”

World Kitchen Presents Wedding Day Radio: Joann Ambriz
What’s a groom to do to get suited up for his big day? Joann Ambriz of Formally Modern Tuxedo has all the answers. “I always tell my clients, I can tell you everything about what’s fashionable right now, but you have to be comfortable with what you’re wearing. So I advise them to think it through,” she tells The Wedding 101 Show host David Rothstein. “Do they like things that are more relaxed? Do they like things that are more fitted? Are there particular color schemes they feel more comfortable with? And then I ask them to come in and try some things on. Once we have the tux down, we start with accessories. Whether or not the groom wants to wear a vest, does he want to match the bride with a white or ivory color, or prefer to stay with a classic black?”

World Kitchen Presents Wedding Day Radio: Ray Swash
Despite the name of his firm—Dream Weddings—Ray Swash is a realist, though an ever romantic one. “In our references, we began to get responses from couples saying thank you for the perfect day. But the perfect wedding doesn’t mean that everything goes perfect,” he tells Moving You Forward host Heidi Cowie. “It’s more that we can provide for the bride and groom a day, a ceremony where they love it. My goal for every couple is that someone—if not many guests—comes up to them after the event and says, ‘That was so you.’ In other words, it really reflected the heart, the style, the personality of the bride and groom.”

World Kitchen Presents Wedding Day Radio: Rachael Grammer
With this policy, I thee wed. That’s the message from Rachael Grammer of Two Hearts Weddings and Events. “You have this ring on your hand, but you need to protect it. You need to make sure it’s insured,” she tells Fotowerks Radio host Terry Bruno. “I’ve been the victim of the loss of my diamond engagement ring, and also of a home fire. And insurance saved me on both occasions. The other thing is, inspect your ring and clean it often, because the prongs can work loose and the stones can fall out over time. So as soon as you get home, take that ring off to keep it safe from chores around the house.”

World Kitchen Presents Wedding Day Radio: Chuck Fishman
If you don’t want Chuck Fishman to capture your big day on film, he doesn’t want you either. “People who are interested in good photography always make me excited. People who care,” the noted wedding photog tells Wedding Planning Radio host Jeannie Uyanik. “Case in point: I was meeting a couple in their apartment—I like to meet them on their own turf so they’re completely comfortable—and while I was showing my work, the guy was watching a basketball game. Obviously he could care less about the pictures. I knew that wasn’t a couple I could work with. There’s got to be a mutual respect. And hopefully they’ll ask smart questions, and not just check off on their checklist that they now have a photographer for their wedding.”

World Kitchen Presents Wedding Day Radio: Leah McCarthy
Planning an outdoor wedding? Fabulous! Just be sure to take a tip from Weddings with Leah host Leah McCarthy. “The most obvious detail to consider is the weather. Not only rain, but here in Hilton Head Island, South Carolina, we have to take into consideration the heat. And the time of year we choose,” she says. “We can of course say our prayers. But when Mother Nature’s involved, you never know what’ll happen. So you want to make sure you have a contingency plan. Often at popular outdoor venues, there will be some indoor space nearby that can be easily switched. And if you do choose a hot month, you’ll want to keep your guests comfortable. So be sure to have some cold drinks available before the ceremony, and perhaps even some towels on ice with lemon slices.”

World Kitchen Presents Wedding Day Radio: Jeannie Uyanik
“If you’ve recently gotten engaged, the first thing you should do is sit down and think about your guest list,” says Wedding Planning Radio host Jeannie Uyanik. “Because it sets the tone for two things: how much space you need, and how much money you need to pay for all of those guests. Whenever I talk to couples, I always ask, ‘How many people on your guest list? And they always say something like, ‘We think it’s about 200.’ But most of the time, it’s actually about 300.”

World Kitchen Presents Wedding Day Radio: Angela Gala
When your surname’s a synonym for festive occasions, we’re guessing you’ve got something on the, ah, ball. So when Angela Gala of Rogers & Gala Event Planning weighs in on the benefits of a wedding planner, we listen. “They can help save you money, they can help you select the right venue,” she tells I Do Radio host Angela Chester. “The biggest benefit we can offer is working with you from the very beginning. We recently had a bride who’d chosen her cake vendor, and it wasn’t someone we were familiar with, but she’d tasted a cake the vendor had baked and thought it was just wonderful. Come the day of the event, she brings the cake, and a piece on the back was falling off, some appliques were falling off and the chocolate was starting to melt.”
