When Andrew and I were planning our wedding we had little to no idea what we were doing.
We were both the first siblings to get married.
One of my best friends got married when I was on my mission, so I was completely un-involved there.
When we were planning our wedding I wish we had some sort of rough guide of what people before us had done.
We did not know where to look for so many different things.
All things that follow are in the Utah Valley area.
Our photographer was Maddie Thomas. She was wonderful and a complete life saver.
We had her do our Bridals and Wedding Day
(the person for our engagements we didn't like too much so we found Maddie instead).
And all pictures that follow were all taken by her! She's wonderful. We love her.
For our luncheon we had it at a local church, that way we could invite as many people as we wanted.
We had a lot of people from out of town that we wanted them there as well as our local family and friends.
This worked perfectly! We had Kneaders cater and it was delicious!

We also had our reception at a local church and these pictures do not do the place justice. It was absolutely beautiful! People were so amazed when they came in and many people told us that they had never seen a church reception so beautiful.
I was completely in awe.

We had Michelle do it and her company is called Ivory Gables.
Her website it HERE and her Facebook is HERE.
She was absolutely wonderful to work with.
She showed us so many different options and ideas and we got to pick exactly what we wanted.
Loved her!

We had VIP Catering do the food at our reception. They do all sorts of food. We choose to do desserts.
We ordered for 500 and when the reception was over we had over 600 of one kind of dessert.
Their serving size is more than just one per person.
Their website is HERE.
We had Emily do our cake (we found her through Thumbtack which is a kinda nifty site). She was so professional
and really worked with us for what we wanted. The cake was so beautiful AND she made those flowers out of sugar.
She did that!!! Talk about her talent! She doesn't have a website but I'm sure if you look at Thumbtack her information
will appear and I have her contact information if needed.

We ordered our wedding cake topper off of Etsy. It shipped from China so it took around a month to come. I didn't realize
that fact and it came about a week before the wedding. Ah, sweet relief! Online it did not have "and" for
Mr. AND Mrs. so I asked them to include it and they did!

To order this one or one similar the Etsy shop is HERE.
And today celebrates 6 months since we had this wonderful day that all this wedding planning
work went into. Totally worth it. We loved everything about our wedding day!
