Wedding Industry Statistics 2012

13th March - Submitted by admin

On Wednesday, March 7, 2012, Santa Barbara Wedding DJ Scott Topper attended a Wedding seminar conducted by the Santa Barbara Event Professionals at Butler Event Center. Santa Barbara Wedding Planner Kerry Lee Dickey was the guest speaker from Santa Barbara Wine Country Weddings and Events as she presented “For Better Or For Worse,” A Look at Wedding and Events Marketing, Santa Barbara Style!

Here’s some of the wonderful Wedding Industry stats that I learned…

The percentage of event clients that do planning and initial research for event services online is 90%!

The average cost of most Weddings today is $26,800.00.

The average number of Wedding guests in the U.S. is 165 attendees.

The Wedding industry is now a $120 BILLION dollar industry.

77% of Marriages are first time marriages.

When a Bride plans her Wedding, she involves and meets with forty different businesses.

80% of today’s Weddings are Destination Weddings (meaning the bride and groom themselves as well as the majority of the guests) are traveling from out of town to stay in the wedding location vicinity and also potentially host other activities for the guests (i.e. Farewell Brunch, tours, etc.).

DJ Entertainment and Technology have not been affected by the 2008 Recession and are in fact, booming more than ever.

Thanks Kerry Lee Dickey from Santa Barbara Wine Country Weddings and Events for discussing and sharing the economic climate as it relates to our Wedding Industry 2012. Here’s some more info on Kerry Lee-

Roots. Experience. Integrity. Connections. Soul.

Roots we’ve got ‘em!

Who would have thought that a career in wedding & event planning would begin at the tender age of three when CEO/Founder Kerry Lee Dickey began hostessing at one of her family’s four restaurants here in Santa Barbara?

A third generation Santa Barbarian and deeply rooted in this area, Kerry Lee loves and genuinely knows Santa Barbara. Her grandfather served as a local businessman and was highly regarded in the community as a leader. He also served as Rotarian and Police Commissioner and established in Kerry Lee the roots for a life-long love of and devotion to community. With the family home (also built by her grandfather) on Channel Drive, right next to the Four Seasons Biltmore, elegance, community and service have always been the very essence of Kerry Lee’s being. Over the mountains in wine country, Kerry Lee’s Great Uncle founded Valley Pump and Supply and was a renowned “water witch” helping local ranchers find where to drill for water supply and being the key source of finding the water supply to make Lake Cachuma.

“I love producing events both here in Santa Barbara proper and have a special affection for Santa Barbara’s wine country, thus the namesake of my business,” Kerry Lee says. “We have the Riviera of the United States on one side of the mountains with all the wedding and event location styles one could want; and on the other side, we have a natural backdrop reminiscent of Provence, Tuscany and even some ‘Big Sky’ country thrown in with solid country ‘ranch feel’. Kerry Lee has always described this special Santa Barbara wine region as “rustic elegance”, a term which media quickly picked up and spread and has now become a common description of the Santa Ynez Valley.

Experience no one can touch us in Santa Barbara County!

With over 600 weddings now under her belt and planning weddings & events since 1995, Kerry Lee has not only become one of the most trusted and sought after Santa Barbara wedding and event planners, she has become a sought-after resource to the events industry as well. Starting her professional event planning career under arguably one of the world’s best customer service leaders, Nordstrom, Kerry Lee served as Special Events Coordinator for Nordstrom Santa Barbara following her college graduation. She then continued to be as she calls it “baptized” into the events industry by working for years in the hospitality industry as a Director of Catering and Wedding Sales. This is where she truly learned the soul of event planning and what set the stage for her career.

After some world travel, living in Paris , France for a brief time, Kerry Lee met up with national wedding celebrity/author/brand Beverly Clark and has served on retainer to Beverly Clark Enterprises, LLC in the capacity of the co-developer, trainer and Vice President of the Wedding Certification Training Program and currently trains and certifies wedding professionals world-wide.

Kerry Lee has had the privilege to be the sole event planner in Santa Barbara chosen to serve the “horse whisperer” Monty Roberts himself as Corporate Event Planner his Flag Is Up Farms in the Santa Ynez Valley, working with top CEO’s from all over the world in planning their events at Monty’s ranch for his corporate program . Kerry Lee has also spoken at various conferences , including the ARA International Conference in Las Vegas, Nevada at Mandalay Resort where she was specifically invited to present on “Legendary Customer Service Standards” in the events industry , based on her reputation for her business practices with clients.

A Certified Wedding Professional, Kerry Lee continues to learn and attend industry events regularly so her clients receive the most up-to-date standards and expectations and stays active attending ISES (International Society of Event Specialists), ABC (Association of Bridal Consultants) , NACE (National Association of Catering Executives) and SBEP (Santa Barbara Event Professionals) meetings.

Integrity never a hidden agenda (or fee)

Santa Barbara Wine Country Weddings & Events does not ever accept kick-backs from any of their event supply partners. Period. The result? That clients are assured planning and referrals to vendors are the most suitable for their budget, vision and plan and not simply who will give the event planner the biggest incentive or monetary bonus for their referral. Also, consulting fees are for services and clearly stated. Period. What you see is what you get. If it is determined that a client’s needs are going beyond the scope of the contract, the client will be notified in advance of a possible fee increase and be let to make the decision if they want to add the additional work (and fee) on. There will never be a surprise bill.

Connections sorry, but it is all in who you know….

Our work in the trenches both as an event planner with over 600 events’ experience and the fact that we have been aligned with the industry’s leaders on a national and international level mean our clients benefit from the most up-to-date trends, vendor referrals and industry standards.

Soul that certain “je ne sais quoi”

“You’re not like those typical carping wedding planners. You have a joy to planning and know your stuff and make it fun for everyone.” Well, we couldn’t have said it better. We love what we do. And we also know that with all the planning that takes place prior (i.e “crises prevention” as Kerry Lee calls it), there is a certain “magic” to allowing the event to breathe and have its own pulse, too. CEO/Founder Kerry Lee Dickey has a background in theater arts and one of her signature essences is finding the soul of every event – which is unique- and making the experience flow seamlessly with various fresh touches to entertain and delight guests. She is also known for a “secret ingredient” in creating timelines that are known to be 99.999% fail proof and allow the event to go off exactly as planned.

When not planning events or traveling to consult with and train industry professionals, Kerry Lee lives with her family in Santa Barbara and loves teaching Jazzercise as a certified instructor in her “down time”, rounding out this professional wedding planner’s life with all the things she loves most in life.

Bar \ Bat Mitzvah Candle Lighting Ideas

23rd January - Submitted by admin

The Candle Lighting service at a Bar\Bat Mitzvah is a great way for a young
man\lady to say thank you, and recognize those in his\her life who helped
them to achieve this milestone in their life.

Many families like the idea of saying thank you and offering recognition, but
are tired of candles, as they are so pervasive at Mitzvahs, and are looking
for alternatives to candles as a way of distinguishing their child and event
as unique.

Here are some suggestions and options regarding candle lighting that will
allow you to do just that.

Variations on candles

While candles are the standard you can also use Flowers, Leaves,
Trees, Tony’s, Emmy’s, Academy Awards, Puzzle Pieces that
create a picture of son\daughter, or something to match
your theme.

Rename the Academy Awards \ Oscars to be the Joshua’s or Rachel’s.
Fill in your son\daughter’s name here. Or have the leaves represent a
tree planted in Israel in the name of the person being honored.

Time Factor

If each candle takes 60 seconds \ 1 minute to – Announce, allow
recipient(s) to walk up, take a few pictures, and walk away, then
13 candles would take 13 minutes.

2-3 minutes each is more realistic. So add 30+ minutes to your
time line if you decide on a candle lighting service.

Candle Lighting

Adding visuals, pictures, and video to your candle lighting service
is a great way to keep your family and friends engaged in what
is now a very personal experience.

Your memorial candle can take on the emotional feel of the Oscar’s
Memoriam. Your family candles can include pictures from vacations
and special memories.

Guests unable to travel\attend can record a video message that would
play after the candle is lit, as a surprise for your son\daughter.

Practice Please

Just like your son\daughter will practice with the Rabbi for his\her
reading part in the service, so he\she should practice with cards
or a print out of what will be said for each candle.

Rhyme Time

Aunt Judy you are so much fun, please come light candle number one.
Uncle Irving and I love fishing. It is me and you for candle number two.
And so on.

This Dr Seuss style rhyming is a popular, but not necessary. The
message and sentiment are far more important. (In this blogger’s
humble opinion)

As always ADJA members who specialize in Bar\Bat Mitzvahs can help you
make the most of your Candle Lighting and guest’s experience.

WeddingWire is one of the fastest growing wedding and event sites in the country. They say that “necessity is the mother of all invention” which is exactly why WeddingWire was created: to create efficiency and transparency in the wedding and event space.

While planning his own wedding in 2005, Tim (CEO) became aware of the remarkable inefficiency in today’s wedding market. With engaged couples continually struggling to find the vendor that best suits their needs and vendors constantly searching for new ways to expand their businesses online, Tim and his 3 friends (Jeff Yeh – CTO, Lee Wang – COO, and Sonny Ganguly – CMO) set out to solve this persistent disconnect and provide both parties with simple, yet productive, channels to interact.

For engaged couples, WeddingWire offers the ability to search, compare and book over 100,000 reviewed wedding vendors, from wedding venues to wedding photographers. WeddingWire also offers a comprehensive suite of online planning tools for weddings, including wedding websites and wedding checklists, all at no charge. WeddingWire is about helping brides and groom execute efficiently and effectively on their weddings.

For wedding vendors, WeddingWire is the only all-in-one marketing platform for businesses online and on-the-go. WeddingWire offers one simple solution to build a professional network, improve search visibility, manage social media and reach mobile consumers. Businesses that advertise with WeddingWire appear on WeddingWire.com, ProjectWedding.com and other leading sites, including MarthaStewartWeddings.com (NYSE: MSO), Weddingbee.com and Celebrations.com (part of the 1-800-Flowers family of brands, NASDAQ: FLWS).

Ultimately, WeddingWire is about simplifying your wedding planning by leveraging technology. Whether you are looking for information about a specific vendor, need to comparison shop across vendors, require robust and intuitive management tools, or just want to connect with other engaged couples to share and collaborate in the bride forums, WeddingWire seeks to provide best-in-breed solutions to ease the entire wedding planning process.

Rhonda Couchigian of Rayce PR & Marketing

11th January - Submitted by admin

I learned a lot of useful and helpful business development, marketing, and promotions tips last night at the ISES- Ventura-Santa Barbara event from one of the top educational speakers- Rhonda Couchigian of Rayce PR & Marketing. Thanks Rhonda and Team! Rayce is a PR and Marketing firm focused on the luxury wedding, special event and small business markets. They believe in creative marketing and new business development with a foundation deeply rooted in consistency.

Here’s a bit about Melissa Musgrove Photographer-

My first instinct is to say, call me, in a matter of minutes you’ll feel like you’ve known me forever.

The easy info is that I’m married to my best friend and we have two grown children. (I was practically a baby when I married) We are all in the arts and each of have our own businesses.

I’m a dog nut. Inherited from my Mother, I’m sure. I have two of my own, but at any given time I usually have a third as I foster for the local no kill shelter, DAWG, in Goleta. I love to read, and when I do, I can’t get much done until I finish the book. Therefore, I don’t get to read to much during my busy season. During busy season I get by with reading Vanity Fair and Pro Photographer magazines.

I love going to the movies. Independent movies are my favorites.

I like to garden, hike, go to the beach, hang out with girlfriends. Hit a flea market once in a while. Standard girl stuff.

Oh yes, I love photography. Hopefully that shows!

Call me. . . 805-563-5050. It will be like talking to a girlfriend that knows all about weddings!

Memberships:

Director of Communications, International Special Events Society ~ Ventura/Santa Barbara Chapter

I’m honored and delighted to be listed as a preferred photographer at the following Santa Barbara Wedding Venues; San Ysidro Ranch, Four Seasons Biltmore, Montecito Country Club, Fess Parker Doubletree Resort Hotel, and the Channel Cat.
