Q: What is your favorite part of a wedding day?
A: I cant pick just one! I love when I visit first thing in the morning- the excitement level is so high. I love greeting them as they arrive to the ceremony. The moment after I tell the last person to "go" and walk down the aisle is such a wonderful feeling of "we did it!!" A room reveal is always magical as we get to show the couple all the details they have worked on. Yet, my favorite moment might be about 30 minutes before the reception ends, when the couple is on the dance floor singing their heart out with the band, surrounded by their friends and family just having the time of their lives. If we make eye contact they might signal they need a water, or their dressed fixed or a friend needs something and Ill jump in. Most of the time I get a huge smile- so I bust my own dance move to keep the energy high and continue to keep an eye out from the perimeter. This is the celebration we worked for.
