"The Quotation Collector" Bride

The past year has had its fair share of challenges for me. I haven't been able to blog for more than six months despite my desire to do so. The economy in the country hasn't been the best and its been reflected so much on how couples are not willing to spend much on their wedding. But thanks to crafterminds on twitter, my zeal for blogging has been renewed and my need to complete my unfinished articles is greater now than it was a while back.

I thought I talk about a particular bride that continues to fascinate me until now. Well, I mentioned earlier on that the economy hasn't been at its best for a while and many couples have tighter budgets to work with but this particular bride gets my attention. I would like to refer to her as "the quotation collector" bride. Why so? She will go from vendor to vendor asking for a quotation price for her wedding. In order to get as many as possible she will always involve many individuals in her committee to help her do so. Her interest isn't in quality or reputation of the firm she chooses (whether they are known to deliver good services or not), but as the saying goes "may the best man win" or should it be the cheapest?

Why she fascinates me? A majority of them have the best ideas for their wedding and quite creative I must say. "The Quotation Collector" Bride always wants the best of it all but 80% of the ones I know have had to change their wedding vision completely or partially due to the fact the cheaper option would not necessarily respect it. This being February, I look forward to working with all sorts of bride for the year, but one I hope to be cautious around; "The Quotation Collector" bride, I hope to make some of them see a good wedding theme calls for good services from vendors which might not necessarily be the cheapest in the market. Let's see if I rise to the challenge better this year.....
