Event Insurance

{source}

One thing you don't think about is having insurance on your wedding day. I mean, think about it. You have it on your house, your car, your health, your life.



But what about insuring a party. Have you thought about that... if you answered no, you probably should and here is why...



You insure things for events that you can't think about, not necessarily for things you can. For instance - you are probably a 20-something, or even a 30-something, you don't think about dying... but what if you did... that's why you have life insurance.



You are having a wedding, the biggest day of your whole-wide-life! Probably the most expensive party you are throwing to this day. What if something happens... something big... or something not so big.



What If's:

• Your reception venue burns down


• Your photographer has a tragic accident


• All of your images from your photographer are stolen from their car after your wedding


• You caterer goes out of business the day before your event


• Your florist forgets about your wedding


• Your ceremony site is eaten by a massive sink hole the day before your wedding


• Your guests get ridiculously drunk and cause major damage to your reception facility

All of these things have happened! And almost all of them can be fixed at the last minute, but what if... what if... what if! It's not about what we can plan for, it's about what we can't plan for.



That is why you have event insurance... We love WedSafe, it's very reasonablely priced, and can really cover your ass...ets.



Because it's about you, andthe details, and what you aren't thinking about. So now, you won't have to think about it.

Hints on Tastings

Photographer: Rebecca Jones

I love cake! I mean I seriously LOVE CAKE! So when a client asks me what to look for in a cake, I take that very seriously... probably too seriously. Nahhh... it's cake!

How do you taste a cake to make sure that you love it, that it's everything you want it to be, especially your wedding cake!?!?

That's a great question, and I am so glad you asked!

We've actually talked about MasterPiece Weddings and how we do cake tastings for our clients. But let's talk about the actual tasting part.

First, look at the cake, does it look pretty... even if it's just a slice of cake. Is it crumbly or is it a nice moist piece of cake.

Second, check out the filling, is it pretty and glossy... if its fruit, does it look like the fruit it's supposed to be... if it's Strawberry and Cream, does it look like it?

Now you can taste it... but wait!

Taste the filling first, do you like it, is it tasty?

Taste the cake next... Yummy? Moist? Delicious?

Taste the frosting next... what do you think? Too Sweet? Grainy? Deliciously perfect?

Now taste them all together! How do they taste all together, perfect? Be thinking about how the flavors meld in your mouth, do you like the way they all come together?

It should!

That is my idea of the perfect cake tasting!

Now bring on the coffee!
