As promised, "Tamara's Tips and Tricks to planning a successful event." Over the years the most commonly asked question that I have heard is how can I save money when planning my event? I tell my clients that if they want to save money a great tip is to skip the cocktail hour and go right into the reception. This will definitely save at least a few thousand dollars and often there is no reason that you can't go right into a room if set up allows. The celebration can begin right away and your guests won't even notice the difference:)
