Bride tell us a bit about who was the most helpful in helping you pull off your dream wedding?

“Don’t let Covid stop you from your dream day! Adjustments may have to be made but follow your heart and don’t settle. What you and your significant other choose to do will be the RIGHT decision❤️”

Did anything hilarious/unexpected happen?!

“The groom’s button came off 10 minutes BEFORE the ceremony was suppose to start and had to find someone who could sew asap!! 

We were in NO way expecting the dance-off our DJ threw in but it was so fun & an enjoyable memory!”

What is something unique you incorporated into your wedding?

“I had a blue heart sewn into my wedding dress that was from an old shirt of my dad’s that my mom had kept after he passed for my “something blue”. 

Also for my father/daughter dance I decided instead of skipping it, I wanted to incorporate a dance that involved men in my life that have been like father figures to me since losing my dad”
