No one who knows and loves Rancho Mirando’s Donna Aldred would ever accuse her of being a technology expert. She’s been the driving force behind the design of the exclusive Rancho Mirando destination wedding packages that hill country brides covet for years. And yet with all the technology available to today’s brides, it wasn’t always so easy or streamlined to plan a beautifully designed Rancho Mirando wedding.
Until Donna became a power Pinterest user, that is.
Donna has always loved collecting snippets of this and that for her brides to use to plan their weddings. So once she finally gave up her notebooks of magazine clippings and got the hang of the popular social media site she was unstoppable. According to the latest stats on Top Pinterest Users only ONE of the top 10 Pinterest users has more boards that our Donna has!
Rancho Mirando brides have in their back pocket one of the most extensive and carefully-curated Pinterest pages on wedding design out there. From flowers in all the colors of the rainbow to the latest wedding crafts to photos of every piece in the Rancho Mirando inventory available to customize her wedding, the possibilities are almost endless with 11,ooo pins and counting.
“I start a board for each bride that she and I both pin to,” says Donna.
This technique now facilitates the design process from start to finish. What bride doesn’t love perusing Pinterest and collecting her favorite wedding inspirations?
“And when I give a tour I give our prospective brides the link and they can see Pinterest boards with all of our rentals and pricing right on one page,” she says.
Donna’s page currently boasts 147 well-tailored boards on the most beautiful trends in wedding design.
But who’s counting?
