You may have noticed, things were a little quieter over here on the gram @signature_experience_events last week.
Did this last week feel “off” or weird to you? Did you think you were the only one? I spoke with several friends and colleagues and they said they had also experienced a weird, wonky week. 😑 😣 😩 When you work full-time, in addition to owning a business; (two actually, when you include the farm business) and people have expectations and things go wrong at work, and you have to stay over-time to complete time-sensitive important stuff...when the internet is down, when your Canva app crashes, and your documents don’t load...all in one day!! And a few more days too. 😱 What then? How do you handle this and work through it? When your plans don't work out the way you had hoped they would, what do you do? When you’re frustrated about the obstacles in your way, how do you deal with your frustration and expectations of self and others? 😬 When you criticize and talk $hit* to yourself and/or wonder if things would have worked out the way you anticipated, how do you feel? How do you overcome this? Do you feel like sometimes you’re scaling a big mountain? ⛰ Does it feel like an uphill climb? Here are some things you can do that in my experience, have been helpful: 1. Acceptance - Acknowledge your thoughts 2. Stay calm - Pay attention to your emotions l 3. Be authentic - Express yourself and ask for help if you need 4. Be realistic - Bad things happen; don’t let the situation take away your calm 5. Trust in you - Believe in yourself and your abilities 💪 6. Improvise - Get creative, see opportunities, think outside the box, be flexible 7. Gratitude - Focus on your blessings 🙏 8. Be diligent - Work hard and take responsibility for yourself 9. Exercise. Move your body. Dance. Run. Walk. Kickbox. Get all the bad energy out of your mind and body. Your outlook, your health and your brain will greatly improve. 10. Find purpose and stay true to your purpose. Be joyful in serving others. 😃 11. Surround yourself with people who support you, cheer you on and encourage you! 🥳 When everything feels like an uphill struggle, think of the view from the top! How you handle the climb determines everything! 🧗♀️ Comment below ⬇️ with what you would do/have done and/or how you have worked through your challenges. 📱 You can help others and encourage them when you share your experiences and tips. 👇 ❤️ 💝 💕 💞😊 🤗 🤩 🏔 🧗♀️🥾🥇 #celebratethespecialmoments #spreadingjoy #encouragement #thetealady #mondaymotivation #youcandothis #mindsetmattersmost #healthymindbodyandsoul #believeinyourself #selfawareness #facingchallenges #frustrations #outdoorsisgoodforthesoul #mountainclimbing #seemomentsinlife #seefriends #quotesofig #womenempoweringwomen #womensupportingwomen #womeninbusiness #langley #fraservalley #yvr #yvrplanner Quote @j.lynn.poetry 📷 @signature_experience_events

She meets with you to determine your goal, date, budget, theme, offers ideas, makes a checklist, solicits bids from vendors, networks with others in the business, does site visits to venues to inspect and ensure they meet your expectations, coordinates with food and beverage providers re menus and dietary concerns, plans for challenges and creates contingency plans.

Flowers improve your emotional health. Flowers have an abiding positive effect on your mood. When you receive and buy flowers, you feel less anxious and depressed. You experience a greater sense of joy in life. Flowers create a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Watch 👀 the facial expressions of people receiving flowers! “The Emotional Impact of Flowers Study was conducted by Jeannette M. Haviland-Jones, Ph.D., Professor of Psychology, Project Director, Human Development Lab at Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey. Dr. Haviland-Jones is a psychologist and internationally recognized authority in the role of emotional development in human behavior and nonverbal emotional signals and responses.” - excerpt from ‘About Flowers’ You need something in your life to improve your emotional health, after a challenging, precarious, troublesome and unparalleled year and a half. Flowers are the quintessential gift!! 💝 💐 Giving flowers is the ultimate gift of love and friendship. You can buy flowers for yourself and your BFF’s.

Here are a few for you to consider when you’re planning an event:
Your event planner can offer you their professional experience and insight. Their valuable knowledge gained by having planned numerous types of events, can give you ideas and tips that will make your event successful and meaningful to you. When planning events, there are some standard big things to “handle”, like your list of guests and your choice of venue,though there are many more things to manage. Many small details need to be taken care of, that you might not have thought about, that need to be organized and ready when your date arrives. Flowers, decorations, catering, dietary concerns, insurance, licenses, equipment and logistics, to name a few. When you hire an event planner, you can let them look after all the little details. You will have more time to focus on matters important to you. Your event planner will help you save time (planning an event is time consuming) by taking care of the preparations, so you won’t be stressed out and worried 😧 about trying to get it all done. 😳 Let your event planner know in advance what you want and need and they will take care of the responsibilities. You will be relaxed to fully enjoy and celebrate your gathering with your guests. 😊 Regarding your budget; an important part of planning!...discuss this in the beginning stage, so your finances are kept in check. 💰 💴 ✔️ Talking about costs can be stressful or boring, though you will be glad you took the time to do this. Costs can rapidly add up and you don’t want any surprises! 🙈 Certainly not financial woes/surprises! 😆 funny, not funny. 😁 Important stuff. You want peace of mind. 😌 You will be worry-free! All you have to do is have fun, make memories, share stories and delicious foods while you #celebratethespecialmoments with your family and friends! 😃 "Friends are like flowers. They fill the world with beauty." - Celeste Barnard 💐 🌸 🌺 Email to discuss planning your events! 📧 📱 Choose your dates soon! 🗓 ⏰ 🏃♀️ You’ll be glad you did! 😅 Always happy to “hear” from you! 👂 📱 📧 Who’s on your guest list?

Do you notice the details and decor when you’re at an event? 🤩 Do you appreciate the ambiance and inspirational enhancements at parties? 😯 Do you want a gorgeous atmosphere at your events yet don’t want the stress of getting everything ready and doing the work? 😌 Since I was a young child; a long time ago! 😀 I have always enjoyed setting the table and making lovely, visually-appealing decorations and arrangements. You will notice the difference they make, when your table is beautifully set, clean and and inviting! When you think of what you want for your table settings for an event, whether Afternoon Tea, Garden Party, Picnic, or Birthday with friends?! What kind of things do you think of regarding table settings, accoutrements or decorations? Your settings and details can be as simple and casual as you like, or you can “fancy it up.” There are various ways to add some flair, colour, ambiance and fun to your atmosphere. They can be elegant, charming, pleasant, graceful, cute, fun and economical. You make your own, (check out @pinterest) you can buy decorations or have an arts-and-crafts friend make something for you. As a creative person, I like making things. Sometimes I buy. Why not host a “craft night” with your friends? Have a party! You’ll be stress-free, and having fun. As someone who is “all about the details”, I enjoy a welcoming vibe, with a visually-appealing presentation. I can help you choose decor et al, according to your tastes for your events!

Did you enjoy the downtime? Did you get other stuff done? Did you relax, (after you panicked and fretted about the outages) exhale and #celebratethespecialmoments Did you invite, call or DM your friend(s)? Sitting down with a cup of tea has a way of soothing and calming you. Gathering with friends around a cup of tea (or coffee if you prefer) is a wonderful way to savour the moments, reflect on the good times, and be grateful for your friends and family and blessings in your life. You can share blessings with others when you gift your special peeps #teaboxes filled with lovely and yummy things.

Do you love sharing? Do you love giving? I love sharing and giving! 😃 Friendship, laughter, tears, kindness, hugs, tea, coffee, food, especially sweet treats, books, gifts, experiences and much more. A few things you deserve and you can share: Kindness Peace To feel all your feelings, even the messy ones To make your own choices without having to justify them Coffee, tea, chocolate or whatever pleasures bring you joy! When you share, you feel better, because it is good for your health, promotes gratitude, empathy and compassion. It can release neurochemicals that result in a sense of well-being.
