So, I’ve been hinting about some big things, and wouldn’t you know the whole review of the Westin Dawn Beach Resort & Spa, St. Maarten (read my own experience here) was really just a major hint that one lucky reader of the Relentless Bride Blog and Weddzilla.com Blog will be winning their very own DREAM HONEYMOON!!!!
That’s right, one of you lucky readers will win a (7) night stay (double occupancy – so your fiance/fiancee can come too ^.^ ), plus …

Our 2nd day in St. Maarten, the husband and I rented this little guy

and drove around the island.
The dual nation island is not very big by any means, so it didn’t take all day – but we had a blast. Granted I got carsick b/c the roads were quite bumpy… but here’s a few photos of what we say along the way:

1. When and why did you start blogging?
I started blogging just a few years ago, as a way to connect to brides and grooms directly, and really offer them my help in real time….not making them wait a year for one of my wedding books to come out. I became a wedding writer and author because I believe so strongly that weddings are family events…not just a day to put on a gorgeous, expensive gown and carry lovely flowers (although that’s …

I’ve always loved the Alfred Angelo line for its beautiful styles and affordable prices. Whether romantic, classic, trendy or sassy, I truly believe this line has something that would make just about any bride happy.
As you know, Alfred Angelo came to the rescue at the last minute when I was on the fence about my original dress, and I quickly fell head over heels for a romantic mermaid silhouette with cascading tiers of lace, a gorgeous semi-cathedral train, and …

Whats a B list you ask? In the wedding world this is your “other” guest list. Why do you need a separate guest list? Sometimes with family we are asked forced to invite people we don’t really know. This in turn forces the bride/groom to cut down her invited guest list. Other times, you invite a ton of people and the RSVPs don’t exactly come through…out comes the B list.
We had an $11,000 minimum for our venue. With what we …

1. When and why did you start blogging?
Savvy Says, the alter-ego blog for my company, Simply Savvy Events began just a short year ago in July 2009. I had many clients and friends ask me about starting a blog.

Growing up in New York, you learn that if you can make it in New York you can make it any where and all of the worlds best restaurants are in New York.
I always had a mental list of marque places to grab a drink at with out of town guests or a place to go to when booking a special event.  Hard to believe that 3 places that were top of the list are now closed.  They are Tavern …

1. When and why did you start blogging?
I first started my blog in order to keep family and friends updated about my wedding plans. As my research progressed I became infatuated with what the wedding world had to offer and dived head first into blogging weekly about my findings.
2. Tell us about your blog and its mission.
My blog is meant to be fun, carefree, and steer women away from being Bridezillas. Planning a wedding can be stress free if you …
