What three adjectives best describe your wedding?<\/b> Timeless, romantic, and organic.<\/i><\/p>\n

What inspired your personal wedding style, and how did you incorporate your style and personalities into your big day?<\/b> We loved the wedding blocks – we wanted our wedding to be chic and beautiful. We based a lot of the detail of the table decor off of a beautiful table setting we saw in a Colin Cowie magazine. We also wanted to incorporate our two cultures. The wedding emphasizes the joining of our cultures and families.<\/i><\/p>\n

Looking back, what are the moments, decisions or memories that you love the most about your wedding?<\/b> I loved our first dance. It was such an intimate moment, but also the climax of our day, where we had the chance to enjoy each other explicitly. I will hold on to that moment forever.<\/i><\/p>\n

What piece of advice would you give to a bride planning her wedding today?<\/b> Whether its getting in shape or combing through spreadsheets in the middle of the night to cut costs, remember to do everything in moderation. Pace yourself. The assessment of value-to-price is important through the whole planning process, but my advice is to find 3 things you absolutely need to have and let yourself splurge a little. With that being said, stick to your budget. This is not just your wedding, its you and your future husbands wedding. They may not care about a lot of the details (perhaps they cant visualize like you can) but the choices need to reflect both of you.<\/i><\/p>\n
