Creating Enchantments

The One Thing I Regret Most About My Wedding Day 😬

Don’t get me wrong - I loved the Day, I love the Man, and I cherish every Image and Memory

BUT

I should have hired a Planner/Coordinator, for many reasons.

For those who don’t know, I got married in Covid 😷 times, probably because I was bored and needed something to do (stick with me because I know that sounds bad!)

♥️ Dating: October 2017
♥️ Engaged: August 2018
♥️ First Child: November 2019

I had nothing stressing me out in the year 2020 obviously, so around June I said to my then Fiancé “Let’s make it Official, I’m thinking September…” Of course he so graciously agreed, his major responsibility was to show up with the cake 🎂(which, by the way, was the WRONG Cake - but we can save that for a story time later down the road)

🗓️ 3 months of planning go by, adhering to a strict budget, this was my Jam - honestly I thrive in this kind of stressful environment 🤣

The Big Day arrives and no matter how much planning, organizing, and prayer… it was too much. A Completely DIY wedding, plus getting ourselves ready - I think it’s safe to say we were running some 30-60 minutes behind 🕰️ I’m Pretty sure my dashing Fiancè thought I’d hightailed it out of there with our child!

If there was one thing I could change or do differently I would, at the VERY least, hire a Day of Coordinator 👩🏼‍💻 to help with the decorating and scheduling. After all it was my Wedding Day and when I think back the two things I remember the most are:

1. The stress getting everything ready 🥵
2. My Fiancé’s Magic Mike moves in front of our parents 🫣😂♥️🤤

My advice to my Couples is to make sure at the end of it all, you can enjoy one of the biggest days of your life! You’ve promised all of your tomorrows to your best friend 🥰

✨ Surprise ✨

When Erin reached out to book her Soulmate Session she had no idea what her Boyfriend had in store (and honestly neither did I until he text me a few days later!)

Soulmate Session, turned Surprise Proposal, turned Engagement Session - this was such a fun one and when that rainbow turned up I was like a kid in the Candy Store! 

I loved learning more about Erin and Mike’s relationship, turns out they just finished packing up their house to move literally RIGHT before they caught their flight out to Anna Maria 🏝️ for this Session and a little getaway! 

Ladies, when your boyfriend says to book the shoot - it’s always a safe bet to book that nail appointment too 😉
