Finally finally finally! After a year of planning, switching locations, tons of construction and DIY projects gone wrong...we are o-p-e-n!
I cannot be more excited about Bliss! A Wedding Library debuting in New Orleans. I know a lot of people don't understand the concept of "a wedding library" so let me explain a little. A wedding library is a place for brides to be to come and browse through wedding vendors information such as albums, sample pictures, products, live video, sound clips, etc. I decided to create a more organized system of how brides can view each vendors products without it being a cluster. I decided the best way to do this was to display vendors products through cubby like shelving. Through my research done on the wedding library concept past and present, vendors want fair exposure. I created a system where vendors are categorized (photographers, bakery, rental/decor) and each vendor has equal cubby space. Vendors are invited to the library and free to decorate their cubby HOWEVER they want! I love watching vendors get creative, it has been a fun process!
This may help you get a better idea of the "cubby" system. Don't mind my face in these pics ;)

The goal at Bliss! is to streamline the planning process for brides. I have been a wedding planner for almost three years and know the long process of booking vendors. As a bride, you have to first find vendors you are interested in. If you use common wedding websites, you are looking at almost 50+ vendors IN EACH CATEGORY! How are you ever supposed to find the ones that are a perfect match for you and your big day? After selecting a few to email, the overwhelming process starts. Price quotes come in, availability, etc. I know first hand it's hard to remember which vendor is who, who cost what, were they available, or weren't they? They sent me to some other vendors they like? I know, I know. It's a lot. Here at Bliss! we have their pricing, availability, and almost instant access to communication with that vendor right here. We have limited amount of vendors in each category while still giving you a wide selection of style and rates. There is a vendor for EVERY bride!
The best part about Bliss is that the service is FREE to brides. As a Bliss bride, we will spend some time getting to know you. We want to find out what vendors you have booked already, what you need, your budget, your style, and your overall personality. After we figure out the fun stuff, we will recommend some of our vendors who we feel are a good match for you. We will put you in touch with them instantly and save tons of time. At the library, you can view vendors websites instantly, watch video samples right here, check our photographers albums(and compare to others!!) and sometimes get lucky and taste some cake :)
