Anything else you’d like to share about your wedding?

Loved all of my vendors. Emily Jean Photography and Jenn Robirds Events were the best. We received compliments on the food, the DJ, everything went smoothly because of our vendors.

Any tips you’d give brides and grooms planning their wedding today?

  • Shorten your guest list, be careful with the guest list. Don’t invite neighbors with no guest count limit on it.
  • Don’t go crazy with the catering. We could’ve skimped more on the food.
  • Get a coordinator. That was one of the best decisions we made.
  • Not everyone will eat dessert, so no need to order extra, we had tons of left overs.
  • I would suggest a small bridal party. Ours in my mind was too big, although I loved everyone dearly.

What would you have done differently if you had the chance?

Lessen the guest list, lessen the cost for food, perhaps purchase a cheaper wedding dress. Other than that, we loved everything.
