Tips and Advice
The best tip I could give to a any couple is to like your vendor.  Weather it's your DJ, caterer, or photographer, these are people your essentially inviting to your wedding.  Never underestimate to value of actually liking them.  I here a lot of brides complain that the liked their photos but the photographer was rude.
