I feel like I’ve been reliving my wedding in a big way this past week. Our pictures and our wedding highlight video have both been delivered and I find myself casually watching the video and crying. The first time I saw it, I sobbed from beginning to end. Our wedding was truly the best day of my life.
Besides my amazing parents- the wedding would not have been possible without them- Kendo and I had an AH-MAZE-ING team working with us who made our day (and the year of work leading up to it) flawless from start to finish. I kind of promised my girl Andrea at the Mayflower a list of our vendors because everyone worked so well together and did an amazing job. I’ll throw in some extras because I’m so in love with every little detail.
I was serious when I said I’d be throwing some major wedding content your way, and I’ll def repeat some stuff, but weddings are truly my passion and having my own that I am so obsessed with made every step of the process worth it, even the unneeded stress tears. I figured the best way to introduce my amazing vendors was to show the video highlight reel, so you can see how everything came together. Let me know if you think I didn’t cover something or if you have any questions. And without further ado…
