Happy Sunday! Im working on getting better shooting videos, and the below post was an assignment. However, it is about weddings, so I thought I'd share it!!

So Im always in my head! Im thinking of breaking up my signature course wedspread. It seems intimidating at second look?? Do yall think it should all be separate templates? Thoughts???

With winter around the corner, how fun would it be to have a Hot Chocolate bar at your reception? This could be a great addition if you're having a non-alcohol reception or even if you just wanted something sweet for the kiddos! Pro tip: Ask the venue if you could provide this yourself. It could save $$ if you don't have to pay the venue for this ...sweeten the deal by offering to set it all up! What are some other unique beverage ideas you've seen at weddings or are you planning something special?

So I took a little rest this weekend to get my brain back on track. I'm learning all about building my community as well! So just a check in....where are you in the planning stage? It's never too early to do the things on your list, if you can. So if you're caterer has an opening for a tasting, knock that out! and quick tip on that, most caterers will allow you to bring 2 extra people for free for tastings! Make sure to ask ahead, because it's nice to get other opinions, PLUS, it can serve as dinner if you time it right!!!

I got married yesterday!!! 😍😍😍 I’m still riding the high from it all! Let me walk you through my super micro wedding. Going this route isn’t for everyone but for us it was perfect. - Venue: The Courthouse Wedding Chapel - It’s a little chapel across the street from the actual courthouse. We picked it because we only had 4 guests and we knew we couldn’t trust the Oklahoma weather this time of year to do it outside. It was cute but minimal. Wood panels, a single curtain of tulle, 2 unlit candelabras, and seating for 20 people. The price ($200) included an officiant but we brought our own. We dropped so many things to make it micro but we wanted it to feel very special and this is something I would absolutely recommend if you have someone in mind. One of our best friends went online to become certified to officiate it. She read a couple quotes from Frey’s favorite books and even brought a couple items that were so meaningful to us that we never would have considered on our own. The only downside to the venue is that they want you in and out FAST. So once you are there you better be ready for showtime and ready to leave once your time is up because there is someone right behind you. — The look- I have zero regrets about splurging on my dress. I felt amazing in it and it shows in the photos. For my veil, I wanted a cathedral cut with a blusher. I couldn’t find anything exactly like I wanted so I went to Micheal’s, bought 108” wide tulle and metal hair combs, and had my tailor make it for me. She measured it to fit my dress. I’m not sure if I saved money there but I was able to get exactly what I wanted. I bought my shoes and earrings on amazon. I tried on very similar earrings at the bridal shop that were marked $70. I found mine for $20 online. I did my own hair and makeup. If you’ve never done makeup for video or photography I would recommend going somewhere like Sephora and asking a lot of questions if you want to go that route. My bouquet was a combination of faux orchids and real baby’s breathe. So happy I went this route because I didn’t have to worry about it getting damaged and I get to keep it forever.
