Stacie Tamaki (Hey that's me) will be moderating a DIY Wedding Panel Tomorrow!

An invitation to Bay Area Do-It-Yourself Brides and Grooms!

I'll be moderating a panel discussion all about how to DIY certain elements of your wedding... Like a professional!

In tough economic times, and believe me I know of what I speak, I was living in Silicon Valley during the dot com bust in 2001-2002... Anyways, I was saying I know there are times when brides and grooms may need to be resourceful for a multitude of reasons. The decision to DIY is sometimes about wanting to be creative, but often it's simply a way to save money. My advice? Whenever possible try to work with a professional instead of replacing them completely. So, how to save money going the DIY route while achieving as professional of a result as possible?

If you've already decided to DIY certain elements of your own wedding, we'll be sharing some great ideas all about how to prioritize, what you should and shouldn't attempt to do yourself and cover how to: Successfully have an iPod wedding reception, though it may not be how you think. How to shoot and edit your wedding video like a pro, with the guidance of pros. How to work with a professional floral designer to have beautiful arrangements at a lower cost and how to make your own "like-a-pro" wedding invitations.
