We received a listener email with lots of wedding planning questions! Thank you for that.  Also, we talk Kids and weddings. ***Listener Question*** Hi, ladies! Love listening to your podcast during my commute to work! I got engaged about a month ago and it is probably time to start planning. I have some questions I wanted to ask: How much should I budget for a day of coordinator? Would you know if there would be cost differences pending month for the reception? Possibly between Oct to March? If a winter wedding, when do you suggest the bride and bridesmaids should start shopping to jump on discount deals? Do wedding dress sellers participate in Black Friday? I live in VA and pending price of venue, I am considering DC or Richmond to have the reception. Are you familiar with any venues you can recommend that will fit about 200? Best Anna ***Kids and weddings*** Check out episode #133  Decide on whether you want kids at your ceremony and/or reception. If you decide you do not want kids at either your ceremony and reception, make it clear on the invitation that this is adults only or a 13yrs + (whichever you decide) Maybe you only want them at your reception. Tips for if you decide to invite them: Offer a Kid's Meal. If possible, seat all the parents and their children together at one table or at tables close to each other. Hire a chaperone or sitter. You may need to create an entertainment space-- a kid-friendly DVD, a few board games, electronic games, lawn games, or an arts and crafts space.  Remember you can reach us anytime by emailing info@fromringtoveil.com Subscribe to the podcast: {Apple Podcasts} {Google Play} {Stitcher} {Youtube} -Until next time, No Stress No Worries Keep Calm and Listen On-
