03 TIMELINE

THE
TIMELINE

Working with a wedding timeline is essential on your wedding day. It keeps you on track with all of your the moments and moving parts of the day. Your wedding planner will most likely work with your team to figure out the details, but these are my minimum for recommendations. You're always welcome to add more time where your priorities may be.

04 FAMILY

FAMILY PHOTOS

Family photos are your heirlooms. When was the last time in your life when all of your loved ones (and of course all of your partners loved ones) were together in one place? I'll work with you to learn "who's who" before your wedding day, to make sure they are captured in both the candid moments and the posed photos, giving you memories for a lifetime.
