Truth be told, our favorite part of the wedding day actually happens BEFORE the ceremony. When little love notes are exchanged in a first look with your spouse to be, bridal party and/or family members. Taking this extra moment before the ceremony to recenter and remind everyone of the reasons you all came together for this occasion, is truly beautiful. And we LOVE being a part of that moment. 

Congratulations, you’re engaged!
