The Tribute Kathy and I braved the cold winds Monday to visit The Tribute with our newest bride-to-be Kelly, her fiancee Mike and her family. This will be our first wedding at the Tribute and we were really impressed with the facility. It has so much to offer. First of all, we met with Bethenny, one of the event coordinators, and she was delightfully helpful. She took us on a tour to see the various choices for the ceremony. Kelly can choose from the ballroom, the outdoor gazebo or the rooftop terrace. In addition to the meeting rooms, The Tribute offers a very manly study complete with flat screen TV, leather couches, fireplace, and video games for the groomsmen (hope you can convince them to leave when it is time!). And for the ladies, well they are in for a treat as they have a huge suite also with couches, fireplace, TV, and a patio with a beautiful view overlooking the golf course. The Tribute also offers a small amount of rooms for out of town guests and a lavish Bridal Suite for the couple on their first night.This eliminates the need for a getaway car although they do provide a getaway golf cart for your departure from the reception.

Cyndi Hill is getting married at the beginning of January. We met with Cyndi and her mother for our final visit to the Old Red Museum. It is neat to be using such a historical location but with that come some restrictions that need to be respected. Since the building is not equipped with fire sprinklers (hard for me to hear since my husband owns a fire sprinkler company!), no candles are allowed. Another requirement that we have not dealt with before is that the caterer has to take all their trash with them…actually put it in their truck as the building does not have dumpsters. Luckily, Cyndi is working with Celebration Catering and they are familiar with the rules at Old Red Museum.
Cyndi has such a sweet heart for people and her emphasis is totally on the true meaning of the ceremony. I am excited to be a part of such a loving couple's wedding! What a great way to start of the new year! Blissfully, Beth

Truth in advertising... things are not always what they seem.
Southern Weddings discusses why it is important for brides to be aware of the fact that vendors often pay for favorable reviews or for the opportunity to post on a blog. Check out their article, New FTC Regulations: Explained. Many thoughts come to mind concerning this concealed business practice...misleading, deceptive, untrustworthy...
I want to know if someone is singing a vendor's praises because they think they are incredible...or because they were paid to say it. Wedding Day Bliss does not accept any advertising, nor do we receive any compensation for products or benefit from the vendors that we discuss on our blog. We write about fabulous vendors, great merchandise, and subject matter that we feel is helpful to our readers...and we write it from our hearts. Karen
