What inspired your personal wedding style, and how did you incorporate your style and personalities into your big day?<\/b> My husband and I both gravitate toward classic, clean, and elegant aesthetics and allowed that to guide our decisions about decor, clothing, and color. Before the wedding, we spoke with our officiant about the qualities we love most in the other person, and she shared those during our ceremony. It was a nice way of making the ceremony very personal and allowed us to share more with those who came to the wedding.<\/i><\/p>\n

Looking back, what are the moments, decisions or memories that you love the most about your wedding?<\/b> Our first look was a magical and very intimate moment for us. It was the perfect way to start the day’s events together, just the two of us, before celebrating with all of our loved ones. We will also never forget looking around the room at the reception and seeing the faces of so many loved ones who were there to support us and celebrate together. It was truly a rich, blessed feeling.<\/i><\/p>\n
