Eagles - Cardinals Game...
GO EAGLES!!My team gets another chance...
Well, I don't believe it, but my team this year is headed toward the NFC Championship, and I can't believe it. As many of you may already know, I am a huge Eagles fan, and just a huge NFL and college football fan altogether. It's been a lot of fun over the years that I have been in business to use football as a way getting to know many of my couples. I've met Cheeseheads, Rams fans, Giants fans, and of course Philly fans. I remember one of my couples actually bought me a Donovan McNabb Jersey, and another bought me a Randall Cunningham Jersey (as he was my favorite player of the Eagles). That was just completely unexpected.
So how am I spending this week Sunday. I'll be huddled in front of the plasma, watching that Eagles-Cards game. I'll still have my cell phone on in case any of you need to get ahold of me. But more than likely, my TV will be on so loud, that I won't be able to hear it ring. I promise though, if it rings, I'll just put my live TV on hold (I have DVR), and we can chat for a bit!
Wanna hear something funny. There are some couples who book with me just because I am a football fan, and some who book with me just because I'm an Eagles fan. It has nothing to do with my photography, or my service, or anything. That's team spirit. Who said my love for the game would never amount to anything!!
AN UPDATE ON JANUARY!!
Well, I am happy to report that business has been rather good for the month of January. I only have one wedding this month, but other than that, bookings have been pouring in. This is actually a good sign as this tells me that people are still willing to travel to Hawaii to get married. And that the down economy isn't really having too much of a negative affect on peoples choices to get married. Couples are spending less though, and there have been more cancellations over the past year than ever before.
THE HOT Months to book SO FAR have been February and October. Don't ask me why...but there seems to be a huge demand for the Pro Bowl in Hawaii, maybe because it's moving; and weddings. Couples are flying down to Oahu to watch the last Hawaii Pro Bowl and then to get hitched right after! Amazing. I think couples are booking in October right now because travel around that time, is cheap.
Months that still are relatively wide open...well, that would be all the other months.
Well, I'm about to head out to a meeting. I'll try posting photos of recent weddings when I get back... Talk to you all soon
