Think logo logo logo!!!

As we are coming very very close to deciding on our logo, I thought it would be very important for us to be educated a little bit on what is logo, what should it be, and how to choose one for us!

Here is a link to "10 Tips for a Successful Logo by LogoBee". This article is short, simple and very to the point.

If we educate ourselves what logos should be,  we can be more rational when the time comes for us to choose one for our organization.

I pray that this will block any noises and help us see the sample logos with keen eyes! Enjoy~~

At the meeting#2, I would like to narrow down by alot of what we have talked about and focus on making the Meet the Dress reality, not just an idea.

Kickoff Meeting Sum up

Meet the Dress Kickoff meeting was a success!
Us girls got together on Friday, 5/4/2012 @ Tei An in Dallas and discussed what was on the agenda.
Parts of the discussions were overwhelming because the more we talked about more questions we ran into that just seemed impossible at the moment. I believe our ambitions & visions take reponsibilty for that, but I know that those are good signs! Mostly we were all so excited about the start up of the Meet the Dress!

Oh, and here are the Meet the Dress planners I made for the "Board of Directors" :)
We were busy taking notes all throughout the meeting!

Some good things were talked about over good dinner! Anything from how to start up a non profit organization to how many main events and mid events per year we should host.
















Before going in any further, I wanted to assign everyone a special title in the organization. This way each of us are specialist in specific areas which will make the team very dynamic. This will also prevent us from wasting time and help us build accountibility & responsibility.  Please meet our Meet the Dress Team!


We talked alot about big pictures of our organization, now it is time to take those ideas and focus on details one by one to make our ideas/dreams come true!!!
