Hi Friends, I hope all is well. I know we get this question often but I’m at that place in planning where I feel like I need to be doing something or spending something lol. My wedding in 242 days...

Hi Friends, I'm back again! What are some ideas for the grand exit at the close of the reception? Are you just having one final dance, closing of the bar roll car, bubbles or horns? What's some...

What are your thoughts about having a day of coordinator for your wedding? Is it necessary? What’s the pros and cons? What did you do or are doing? Did you go without one and what was your experience?...

I’m not big on wasting my day taking pictures but I know I do have to take pictures. Ceremony and reception together is from 3-8. I wanted to take pictures before the ceremony but really wanted to...
