A very new attitude has arrived....Those shows have told the brides they can plan their special day themselves which is true. It doesn't teach them how to control their budget, how to work with vendors, that you need money for the deposits at the be…

The Buck Stops Here..........

We've heard of couples who threw a $50,000 party and then went back to their one-bedroom rental where they wallowed in debt. Or couples who, after asking the question, "Who pays?", had to deal with so much family friction that they took off to Vegas. We say that this is no way to begin a life of wedded bliss. Understanding money, the expectations and behaviors attached to it, and the traditional "who pays" scenarios can help you create your own ways and means committee that considers your lifest… Continue

Elusive Exclusives

The flip side of "no dress ads" are designers who run ads in bridal magazines that imply the listed stores have an exlusive on a particular dress. Bridal shop owners love exclusive gowns (sometimes called "confined" dresses) because they're the only shop in their area that carries them . . . and that often means they can charge a huge mark-up on the gown.

But how exclusive are these exclusives? Surprizingly, some designers will quietly sell confined dresses to other shops. Even though the shop… Continue

Melody, no hurry because I don't need a venue until mid-2010 but when you get the square footage and pictures please let me know. I produce business events, including the Chocolate Blues and Business Festival, which it doesn't sound large enough for but for some of my smaller events, it may just work.

Stay in touch........

Hi Melody. Right now I am trying to squeeze my "studio" into my bedroom. I had everything set up in another room in my house that is now my daughters bedroom. I have yet to finish setting everything up as I work, go to school and play stay-at-home dad to my two kids.
However, I would still be interested in hearing your ideas.

Help

A few things to consider before joining Smaller Indiana:
1. Please use your real name (first and last) when you sign up, or we cannot open your account

2. Please do not use logos or commercial images for your profile photo

3. Events should be posted in the events calendar

4. You can post pretty much anything you want on your own personal page (self promotion, etc), and you can change the style of your personal profile page to reflect your corporate identification if you so choose.

5. Please keep all comments civil and polite. It's OK to feel strongly about a subject, and it's OK to be critical of ideas, but please refrain from personal attacks of any kind.

If you witness or experience any issues, please contact admin@smallerindiana.com and we will look into the matter.

6. Smaller Indiana is supported by its members, and by corporate sponsors. If you're interested in learning more about sponsorship, please call Pat Coyle at 317 332 7878.
