What was your wedding vision? Our vision was something “clean,” earthy, ethereal. Lots of greenery, not much color. Some mixed metals (gold and silver accents). As far as location, getting married in our parish church was extremely important to us, so we wanted to find a venue that was within a reasonable distance from our church. What were your favorite parts of the day? Our favorite parts of the day were getting ready with our families & closest friends. The groom loved reading the bride’s card on the morning of the wedding. We loved seeing everyone at our church ceremony, and the groom’s uncle really got everyone out of their seats with a live performance of “Sweet Caroline” at the reception. We were also told by almost all of our guests that the cocktail hour and Viennese hour were both out of this world! Do you have any advice for couples planning their weddings now? Enjoy it! Be on the same team. It can be extremely stressful, but remember the final outcome – you get to marry each other! Don’t let planning take over your life! It should be fun, not feel like a chore. Also – get video! It’s a no brainer – you need one! Even if you and your husband/wife are the only two people to EVER watch the video, it is so worth it!
