I am finally sharing what everyone wants to hear about – the wedding reception! Yes, a wedding is about the ceremony and the union between a couple. But let’s be honest, we all look forward to the fun part – the reception. I am glad to report that we got a lot of positive unsolicited feedback about our reception and wedding in general. During the day itself and the weeks after, people were telling us that we had one of the best (if not the best) weddings they had ever been to! I know I am biased, but I felt the same way.

Weddings are not cheap. And if you’re like me, you want to get a good bang for your buck! After planning 2 completely different weddings for my husband and me over the past year and a half – and being heavily involved in my sister’s wedding in 2016 – I have definitely gained some knowledge and insight into the wedding world.

No, I’m not going to tell you to invite fewer people (though that certainly is effective). While we had a small destination wedding (about 40 people), I know that isn’t practical for everyone, and we definitely stepped on some toes by not inviting many people. But overall, we were very happy with the size of our wedding.

Here are some ways we saved money on our Palm Beach wedding.

I missed y’all last week! With the 4th of July weekend, things got a little hectic and I didn’t get the chance to finish up this post. But I am excited to finally share our wedding ceremony with y’all!

I feel like the ceremony is the one thing I really haven’t shared any pictures of. But it was absolutely more beautiful than I could have ever imagined, and I am so glad we had it where we did!

Today’s wedding blog is all about our first look and wedding portraits! If you haven’t seen the last few posts, be sure to check those out here. And be sure to sign up for my email list down below, because next week I’ll be sharing our wedding ceremony – you don’t want to miss it!

I am so excited to finally share my first post-wedding blog with y’all. I was writing wedding blog posts pretty regularly in 2020, but at the beginning of the year when we had little time left and a lot to do, things just got too crazy to keep y’all posted on. But now that things have finally settled, I can share with you all of the ins and outs of our wedding and I am so excited!

In order to keep organized (and keep your brain from being overwhelmed), there will be numerous posts over the next few months about individual parts of the day. Today we are covering the getting ready details for the ladies, and the next post will focus on the guys. Enjoy!
