Did you live with your boyfriend or girlfriend before becoming husbands and wife? If so how did y’all prepare for the day of the wedding?

Welcome Bags
Shannon, on July 10, 2022 at 3:43 PM

Our welcome bags are complete. We chose to provide to guests staying overnight at hotel in lieu of favors. I found the items to be helpful at the last couple of weddings I attended.

What to do during cake cutting?
Spark, on July 2, 2022 at 5:43 PM
