"Do you have young children that would benefit from participating in my new animated online Young Child Confidence Course, especially in the current situation if schools are closed and children are at home?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

If you do, this is the perfect course for them as communication is a life skill that can be learnt at any age. My new online course starts from Saturday 11th April.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Such a lovely read. A clap for our lovely planner Laura Jayne @yourweddingyourway ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"I love the speeches. Hearing the people closest to the couple sharing their funny stories and favourite memories; it's one of my favourite parts of the day. I will always find somewhere to perch and listen and this wedding, I was stood at the back with my assistant when, as the groom was thanking friends and family for their contribution, he also took a moment to thank me 😊. He began telling their guests about their experience of using a planner. He told them how they didn't even think they needed a planner or coordinator when the venue recommended me to them but after our meeting, quickly realised the benefits and after one of our meetings nearer the wedding, came out with such a long list of things that they had missed in their plans that they wondered what they ever did without me 😊️ - such a sweet and appreciated gesture. Luckily we met with enough time to spare that they still had time to finalise the remaining details and with a little pointing in the right direction, all was sorted, final suppliers were sourced and all was wonderful! Fab venue, fab wedding, fab couple. "⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

HOW SHOULD I BE SELLING?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
. 👉🏻 Go back to basics, what is it clients need from you? Is this different post coronavirus? Do you need to adapt a service at all? .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
👉🏻 Remember to think about how the service will make them feel? What is the end result of working with you?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
👉🏻 Remember they are connecting with you as a person; it’s a long term commitment at times from both parties (which is why continuing to market yourself is important)⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
👉🏻 They need to feel they can trust you 100% to handle their wedding with care and love. They need to feel confident in your abilities and know their wedding is important to you, not just your business but YOU.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

OVER ON THE BLOG...Wedding Entertainment & Music Trends for 2020⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If there is one thing guests always remember from a wedding it’s the entertainment. Did they laugh? Did they dance so much their feet were sore? Did they wake up the next morning with a croaky voice from singing so much? We understand it can be hard thinking about what music and entertainment to have at your wedding. We spoke to members @warble_ents about trends in 2020.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

All the pretty from our supplier member Vaishali of @ananyacards
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"What is my why? Why do I do what I do? I have often been asked this over the last 14 years of running Ananya.⠀⁠
⁠
I am passionate about working with my bridal couples and listening to the individual story of every single couple, each one different. I love being part of their special celebration and life journey, and help bring their vision into reality. I want all my clients to look at their stationery in 10 years to come and for it to bring a smile to their faces. ⠀⁠
⁠
The reason I called the business Ananya is that it means 'without equal' in the ancient language of Sanskrit and that is what drives me and the business...to create something distinctive and unique.⠀⁠
⁠
I worked in my family business for 3 years before starting my first business @creativeiduk, a design/branding/marketing consultancy. I always knew that I wanted to set up my own creative businesses so in 2006, I started Ananya.⠀⁠
⁠
I am so grateful and proud to be celebrating Ananya's 14th year in an industry so filled with talent, emotion, and collaboration. Behind every company, there is the hard, dedicated work of someone making their dream come true, and the team of people making the magic happen around them: my name is Vaishali, and Ananya is my labour of love." 💫⁠
