Hello Brother

MY SISTER IS GETTING MARRIED! Just in case you missed this post on me starting to plan a Bridal Shower & this one on a DIY Wedding Binder, My little sister is getting married and I am so excited! As the big sister and Matron of Honor I have all kinds of responsibilities for the wedding and I pretty much love that! Planning someone else’s wedding is so fun and totally different than planning your own!

BUT one of the most exciting things about this whole process is gaining a new little brother. This is my sister who I fought with, played with, dreamed with, laughed with, and lived everything with and now she is all grown up and getting married. We get a new friend, a new family member! What a beautiful thing about weddings! (So, hello brother!)

I wanted to share with you their engagement story via pictures! Long story short, their first date was on this roof and then they got engaged there! They are so adorable and have great friends who were willing to be there to photograph that moment – what a special memory they get to carry with them into their marriage!

When brides ask me about weddings I always tell them how important a great wedding photographer is and they should make sure to get one! Photography is one the most memorable things about your wedding and a great photographer can make anything look good. You may have a small budget (I did and she does) but DO NOT miss out on a good photographer. I really think you can spend a good chunk of your budget on a photographer you love! But photography does not always need to be expensive! Just like in the design world, there are photographers that are just building their wedding portfolio and would love to give you a great deal! That is my PSA for the day – book a photographer that you love for your wedding day! These kids are going with the person who was their when they got engaged – Johnathan Edward Photography and if you are located in the Northwest Arkansas neighborhood you should look them up!!
