Our favorite wedding day moments:
Whitney
One of my favorite parts of the wedding day is the moment just before the bride walks down the aisle. It’s the last quiet moment before the magic unfolds. Equally unforgettable, is when the our couple step into their reception space for the very first time. Their eyes light up, taking in every detail—the centerpieces, the lighting, the carefully placed accents—all brought to life exactly as they imagined. Witnessing those moments of awe and emotion makes every effort so worthwhile.
Mia
Over the course of the year we get to work with our clients, we grow to love them and form the sweetest bond. I love witnessing the abundance of love surrounding our precious couples from all of the people they chose to celebrate with them on their special day. Another bonus moment: even after three years, I still tear up every time we send our bride down the aisle!
