I hadn't even considered doing a garter toss, but my fiancé brought it up and seems to think it would be fun. Do people even do these anymore??

Some of you may have seen my friend of a friend engagement photos yesterday. She's a new photog and is only charging 500 for the wedding! I check prices in our area and saw a couple great portfolios for some that would be about 2100 for the package....

Today when I was lamenting whether I should pay more for a more seasoned photographer a friend from work said, "Well that depends...if you are planning on getting divorced in a year then no, but if you are planning on staying married then maybe!"...
