Everyone who works in the wedding industry understands that back up plans are a way of life. But when there is a hurricane headed straight for your wedding day... back up plans, umbrellas, extra site visits, equipment rain gear, and creative thinking are also essential. When I spoke with Natalie a few days before her wedding about moving all portraits to a different location, she could not have been more positive and gracious. She was super calm and simply said, "I trust you, whatever you think is best." Best words I could ever hear.
As I walked into the gorgeous house the bridal party was getting ready in, I forgot about the weather and soaked in the warm, energized room full of smiling faces. Natalie and Brad have the best families and friends and everyone was so full of joy.
The entire day was perfect and smooth and stunningly beautiful. Her team of vendors, led by the extraordinary Meagan Warren, made sure everything was flawless *and* the rain even cleared for a few portraits during the reception. It truly was the best day ever! Take that Hurricane Matthew. ;)
Natalie and Brad, I just love y'all and your families and I'm so honored to have spent this amazing day with you! xoxo
