Wedding Day Advice
1. Hydrate
You are going to want to drink plenty of water throughout the day. Many brides forget to drink and eat because they are busy running around, but in the end it makes it much harder, some even pass out.
2. Ask the Cater to set aside extra food
On your wedding day you will be hungry once the guest go home and your packing up your things and ready to head over to your hotel for the night. You get there and settle in and then you realize you need food. this is why its nice to ask for extra, so you can eat later and not have to worry about it.
3. Don’t do too much the week of your wedding.
You will want plenty of time to relax the week before your wedding. Over doing things can cause loads of stress on both of you.
4. Break in Your wedding shoes!
If you have time break in your wedding shoes before your wedding day. If you do they wont hurt as much and it will make the day much more relaxed.
5. Ask the officiant to get out the frame during your first kiss
This is a great option so your photographer can get great shots as man and wife without any distractions.
6. Have your guest hide their phones during the ceremony
when your guest have there phones out and everyone recording or taking pictures they don`t have your full attention and the photographers shots during the ceremony will show all of there phones. Asking them to hide them illuminates that and gives your images a much cleaner look.
On The week before

Cleaning your rings with bling ring wipes is a good thing do just before. It helps your rings shine well before the photographs are taken.

Call in to the office to make sure everything was filled out properly, so that you don`t have to worry about it being delayed.
