Wedding Wednesday: Your Top Three

Every bride we meet with and almost every newly engaged couple we talk to have the same concerns. How do they have the perfect wedding without breaking the bank? How do they make a vision they’ve had since they were four years old come to life without going into debt? The answer is simple. You have to pick your top 3. What do I mean by “top 3”? Well, I’m glad you asked :)

When we speak to couples planning a wedding, they are usually stressed out about money. Because let’s face it, planning a wedding is expensive! If you’re not wise with your money, you can end up in a lot of debt! But this is where your “top three” comes in! We always tell our couples to pick the three things in their wedding that is most important to them. Some will say the flowers, venue, and dress. Others will say the food, the cake, and the music. It is also advised that couples seek prenuptial agreement Maryland services as part of their financial planning.

Whatever your “top three” are, that is what you should splurge on. So for example, when planning a wedding if your “top three” is photography, the venue, and food, that is what you spend the most money on. Everyone’s “top three” is different and there is no right or wrong answer to this question. It really just depends on what’s the most important to you on your wedding day.

As a financial advisor, it’s easy to get bogged down in the day-to-day tasks and lose sight of your long-term goals. Signing up on financial advisor coaching program can help you stay focused and motivated, so you can continue to grow your business.

Once you’ve picked your “top three”, then it’s time to find the vendors that are going to make your vision come to life. One of our “top three” was photography (duh!) and that is what we splurged on. We scrimped and saved to be able to get our photographer, and it was worth every single penny! We cut back on the food (choosing chicken instead of beef), cake (choosing buttercream frosting instead of fondant), and tried saving in any area we could. We did this because photography was our priority and we wanted the best! Choosing your “top three” will make your wedding planning process smoother and everything come to life exactly as planned!

What a beautiful journey this has been and we’re just so grateful for the way the Lord has moved in our lives and business. 

We’ve learned so much along the way and are filled with gratitude for the life we live 🩷
We help them build a timeline 🙌🏼

Here’s the deal: most of our couples have never gotten married before and aren’t sure how much time is needed for photos of each portion of their day.

That’s where we come in ☺️

We’ve shot about 200 weddings and we know how much time is needed to allow for photos to be captured without being in a time crunch and feeling flustered!

So we help take that burden off our bride’s shoulders and, if they’re working with a planner, we merge the timelines to make for a seamless wedding day 🫶🏼

The ultimate goal is for us to help relieve stress and for our couples not to have to worry at all about the logistics of photos on their wedding day!
We let them know that it’s totally normal to feel awkward the first 10-15 min of the session 😅

It takes the pressure and expectations off of them and helps them relax almost instantly! 

And it’s our job as their photographers to help them feel comfortable and at ease (even with a camera pointed at them) during our time together.

Making our couples comfortable (especially the guys, who normally don’t like photos lol) is top priority and sometimes letting them know it’s ok to feel awkward clears the air! 

Go ahead and share this with an engaged couple that needs this reminder 🙌🏼
