TIPS FROM OUR COUPLES<br />

COMPILED BY EMILY PETER<br />

We found establishing a budget and organizing venues was our top priority. It was essential to<br />

discuss what was most important to the two of us. This allowed us to focus on the aspects of<br />

the wedding we wanted to invest the most in.<br />

Over the years, we have come<br />

to recognize the many ways in<br />

which drafting family schedules,<br />

balancing the family’s checkbook,<br />

and maintaining the family home<br />

can feel like a tired, unromantic<br />

partnership. We have found that<br />

intentionality, creativity, and humor can be<br />

effective tools for striking a proper and healthy work-life balance.<br />

Family, food and music: it was most important to share our wedding day<br />

with our family and friends, but also make sure everyone ate and drank<br />

well, and danced the night away. Even if every little detail doesn’t go exactly<br />

how you plan, get those things right, and it will be an amazing time!<br />

—Wedding advice from Lesley & Joseph (Joe)<br />

We divided the elements between the<br />

two of us, by what our strong suits<br />

were and where we were most passionate.<br />

We would then interview the<br />

vendors and narrow it down to the top<br />

two to three who we’d then meet with<br />

together. From there, we’d discuss what<br />

we liked/disliked about each and make<br />

a decision.<br />

—Wedding advice from Stephanie & Ben<br />

Featured in the Winter/Spring 2010 Issue<br />

Take your vows seriously. Go<br />

above and beyond for your<br />

spouse. Marriage isn’t easy; it truly<br />

does take work.<br />

Film the ceremony! We didn’t hire<br />

a videographer or even think to<br />

have someone record the ceremony<br />

on their phone. Looking<br />

back, it would have been a nice<br />

thing to watch every once in a<br />

while.<br />

—Wedding advice from Angelina & Ryan<br />

Featured in the Winter/Spring 2016 Issue<br />

Pick your vendors early to get exactly<br />

who and what you want. Also, for us,<br />

having a photographer was a really<br />

important way to remember the day.<br />

Splurge on the things that matter to<br />

you, and don’t feel guilty about it.<br />
