Planning a wedding is exciting . . . and overwhelming. Suddenly there are so many options and so many businesses that offer all sorts of ways to personalize your special day. Or stress you out. It depends how you look at it.

Kate Parker and her team have been making sure that brides are excited and not overwhelmed for years. We at the Meadowmere have had the pleasure of working with Kate several times and we think the best way to know if a wedding planner is working is how much the bride smiles the day before, day of and day after. Kate and team are responsible for a lot of smiles.

So when we were asked to join my Kate Parker wedding and provide a resource for couples in need of wedding accommodations in Southern Maine, our Ogunquit hotel said yes! One of the best parts to the site is real advice from real vendors that Kate and her team know personally. They are helping you, the bride-to-be, with a great personal resource. And our Ogunquit hotel was thrilled to be a part of this forum.

As anyone who has used any online wedding checklist will tell you, the list of things to do when planning a wedding can be a bit much (who really needs a twice a day email about latest colors and how much you should remember to smile? who wants to see a check list of 396 things you have to do?). This site is designed to be your resource. Set reminders on what you want.

Check out the Meadowmere and many other wedding resources for Southern Maine and the seacoast area. We’ll look for you to be smiling the day before, the day of and the day after!
