getting ready with the girls
when planning a wedding, you lock in all your vendors at least a year out to ensure you have them secured. after this work is done and the deposits are paid, you may find yourself wondering what to do now. if you are like me, you spend most nights browsing instagram and pinterest for inspiration for photo, video and everything else for your wedding day. this can be dangerous as you can be like me and find yourself buying every personalized item on etsy and wondering where all your money has gone. this post is to help you navigate these waters and suggest some items that are totally worth the cost. These will elevate your photos and videos and make you glad you spent the time and money on them.

pop the champange
trust me when i tell you-bring champagne! I have been a bridesmaid at several weddings and it’s always a fun time getting ready when champange is involved. a lot of brides make the mistake of only bringing one bottle for a photo op and us bridesmaids just end up with a sip of it after a long morning of getting ready. As each girl will likely have some downtime, it makes it a lot more enjoyable to have champange and snacks to keep them occupied. I suggest bringing several bottles, you can always save them if they don’t get drank. Just make sure you have one that you can pop for the video and photo!
relax and enjoy the day with your ladies!
