WHAT IS IT?
Where bridal shows are spectacularly fun, they just focus on the vendors and the logistics. In The Unabridged Bride: A Workshop, we realize that there’s more to you as a bride than just flowers, matching table cloths and up-lighting. There’s a whole inner world, too! Although, all the logistics are certainly fun! We want to work with the uncensored, uncut, unabridged you. Which is why we’ve created an awesome workshop with industry experts who deal with all aspects of being a bride and newlywed – from the inside to the outside!
WHEN & WHERE?

6:00pm – 9:00pm
CJ’S Off the Square
218 Third Avenue North
Franklin, TN 37067
WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT?
First, work with bridal coach, Liza Hippler of Maiden to Married, on creating a clear vision for your wedding. This can be used to help ground you and your fiancé through the planning process, and can be used to help determine what’s important and what isn’t when choosing vendors. It’s especially helpful when you find yourself getting caught up in all those delicious-sounding “extras” that are offered to you left and right!
Now that you’ve got your clear vision, CJ Dickson of Williamson County Weddings has some great and very practical ways to set your budget around your vision – and figure out what’s most important.
Piggy-backing on CJ’s talk will be Ashley King of Ashley’s Bride Guide. She’ll discuss your style: how to figure it out and how to achieve it without breaking the bank.
Next, sit back while pre-marital counselor Marie McKinney-Oats of Nashville Marriage Studio chitty chats about how to get your fiancé involved in the process, how to use some aspects of your wedding vision and take it into your marriage and some great ways on setting yourself up for marital success.
There’s also going to be a special guest talking about the importance of family protection (kinds of insurance – not birth control!) (one of the many things few soon-to-be-marrieds talk about).
