What was your most anticipated moment of the day?

Walking down the aisle. It was the first time everything felt very real!! Once that happened it was a blur of happiness and excitement!

What was your favorite wedding detail?

My absolute favorite wedding detail was our monogram! I bought a digital file on Etsy and was able to incorporate it in so many places! I am pretty creative so I designed my own Save the Date, Wedding Invitation, wedding stationery, cocktail napkins, koozies, and even made our second line napkins.

Why did you choose your venue?

We chose the Audubon Tea Room because we knew we were going to have a big wedding and I really fell in love with the fact you could be outside or inside but still one collective room. I loved the Tea Room because it had a natural beauty and just really felt classic.

How did you feel at the end of the day?

We were engaged for a year and five months so it was honestly such a relief. I was so ready to start married life!! I was more excited for marriage than the wedding day itself. There were so many special moments of the entire wedding day that make me so happy, but at the end of the day I didn’t even care about so many things. I just wanted to marry Brandon.
