Trials and Tastings

We wanted to stress the importance of testing your vendors products or services before using them on the biggest day of your life.   Today we'll talk about the food and beverage tastings and hair and make-up trials.



Always always always meet with your Caterer for a full tasting.  Try everything you will serve your guests from the canapes to the dessert and wines.  Guests will always remember the food from an event so you want to get this one right.  At the tasting you want to check out the china, glassware, linen, cutlery, table accessories, and chairs so you can start to design the look of your tables and dining room.  It's okay to play with your food and mix and match plates until you find something suitable to your style.   Feel free to suggest mixing and matching different dishes as well.  This is your wedding and you want it to be oh so scrumptious.



I suggest going for a hair and make-up trial approximately one month prior to the wedding day.  Any earlier and a new style might show up on the runway and you'll have to pay your stylist for another trial.  Any later risks time pressures and in some cases skin reactions to make-up products.    Bring pictures, hair accessories and your veil to the trial.
