…most dreaded part of the planning process. Well today I have great news for you. I am adding guest lists to all my packages. That’s right, I will contact all your friends and family and get their pertinent information and pass it on to you. :) It will not cost anything to my current brides and…. OK, so maybe I’m lying about that. But, I do think I may have a solution for you. Most of you are users of the internets. (Assuming you read…

…ement. Even though I knew without question that this was exactly what I needed to be doing, I almost let my concerns for what others might think hinder me from going through with my decision. I was BEYOND terrified of my friends and family’s response. Can’t lie, having to tell everyone about my decision turned out to be even worse than what I had anticipated. It was a nightmare! With the exception of a few, my friends and family were completely…

…ng “eye-candy”, as she called him, but did anyway. A few days later she was making him a spice cake from scratch for his birthday and the rest is history. So ladies… take note. Head out to your nearest gym and find the best looking guy there. Odds are he’s super smart and the man of your dreams.

…8221;. Here are a few photos of the kids in action with it. Since I got it about a month ago I have had about 6 client meetings and each of those couples has almost been more interested in it more than my photos. I get all kinds of questions about it and basically the meetings end up with me talking about the wedding with the bride while the dude just looks at comic books on my iPad. Hey, as long as they’re booking right? :) The most…

…ready to kiss the other and the other person is like… not quite right now. So even though Rebecca is the bubbly outgoing one in the relationship, it was super obvious how much Tony values and respects her. He was so tender and kind to her the whole session. I loved how he listened to her and how his steady personality is the perfect balance to her go-go fun-fun one. Reason 892 why Rebecca and Tony are great together. He puts up with her hip…

…pizza they just made… They went out onto the porch and drank coffee. PIZZA TIME! Cowabunga! One of the things I loved about these two is how expressive they both are. Kishan is great at saying and asking just the right questions, and Kally’s facial expressions are the best. These two met at a pharmaceutical conference while in school.

…ade me realize just how much of a young lady she is. Everyone who I spoke with before the trip just keep gushing over and over about how special it will be for her. Just how much she’ll remember it forever. How lucky it is that she’ll have these memories. What I have since realized is that I’m the lucky one. I’m the one who is treasuring that week.

…ust on my end. :) Seriously, the premarital counseling we did BEFORE we were married prepared us so much for the first few years of life together. We did an 8 week course together with a counselor, read books about marriage and communication, went to conferences, and met individually with couples who’s marriages we respected and asked them to pick apart our relationship and give us warnings on what areas they saw us struggling in. All of…
