Wedding Time Line Basics

Chris & Jessica Engagement

Congratulations... You just got engaged!

Now everyone wants to know, "When are you getting married?", "When's the big day?"

Knock it off already, people - right?

Wedding planning and wedding reception time lines are kind of like Rome, they're subject to change and they won't get built in a day.

I understand.

Been there, done that - over and over, and over again - and not because I've been married umpteen times, like some celebrities.

I'm fortunate.

Because to me, weddings (and the often stressful wedding reception time line) are the wonderful nature of the beast.

Now that he's popped the question, you'll eventually have a bunch of details to keep track of.

Take a deep breath and don't sweat it!


Stress-Free Wedding Time Line

I'm Carlo. And this is my party truth.

I'm an off-premise catering evangelist/outlaw. I'm a passionista. I'm a paradox. I love when a client hires me to oversee their entire event, from start to finish - because I'm an event planner too.

I'm proud to be mom to Petey Wheatstraw, "the devil's son-in-law" - the best damn Chihuahua North of Mexico. I grew up in Rochester, Michigan. I currently live deep in the heart of Texas. And boy, do I ever miss Xochimilco Super Nachos, the fragrance of Fall and fresh cider and donuts at Paint Creek Cider Mill, and eating a Detroit Lafayette Coney Island when the mood hits me.

It's cool of you to stop by. And you know what's even better? Finding out what you have to say! Hit me up with a comment. Hang with me on Twitter (three accounts, you choose; @TheCaterHater, @CarloAtYourServ, or @CarloAtYourSer2). Or, connect with me using the FB gadget or G+ button on the sidebar. For real, I'd be honored if you'd click on either one. If you want to ask me anything or want to leave a comment, you know the drill; "Contact".

I like people. Especially, people who want the party truth. Talk to me.
