शादी के माहौल का एक वाक्य योग: An intimate surprise wedding filled with love and Disney magic
नियोजित बजट: 30,000
वास्तविक बजट: 40,000
मेहमानो की संख्या: 24 (including bride & दूल्हा)
स्थान: Redbird, Los Angeles, वह
फोटोग्राफर: सफेद खरगोश फोटो बुटीक
जहां हमने सबसे अधिक धन आवंटित किया: We allocated the most funds to 2 big chunks, our venue/food budget and our wedding vendors (फोटोग्राफी, वीडियोग्राफी, शादी के योजनाकार). As nature lovers, it was important to us to get married at an outdoor, greenery-filled location, तथा हमारा वेडिंग प्लानर found us the perfect venue—an amazing restaurant with an outdoor garden! Because of the complexity and quirkiness of our surprise wedding, we wanted professionals who could coordinate the details and capture all the emotions. While big expenses, every single one was totally worth it as they all created and contributed to our wedding vision!
जहां हमने सबसे कम फंड आवंटित किया: We allocated the least funds towards decoration. साथ में Redbird allowing us to use the garden, we had a beautiful outdoor venue surrounded by gardens and greenery, so we supplemented it with only a little extra floral.
पूरी तरह से इसके लायक क्या था: Hiring an experienced wedding planner! We would not have been able to keep our original wedding weekend if it were not for ग्रे इवेंट के अलावा कुछ भी. Holly put our wedding together in about 3 months and saved us from stressing about wedding details. We’re a pretty simple couple, and she not only brought our ideas to life, but she also elevated them and added magical touches we never would’ve dreamed of. Don’t skimp on this, hire someone you can trust that has a proven track record!
क्या बिल्कुल इसके लायक नहीं था: Nothing. Everything we paid for contributed to our overall unique experience. No regrets here. Would do it all again in a heartbeat!
कुछ चीजें जिन्होंने रास्ते में हमारी मदद की: As a couple, we constantly checked in with each other to identify and adjust priorities. Staying aligned through every decision was so important. इसके साथ ही, COVID quarantine and limited in-person interactions with friends and family made it really easy to keep our wedding a secret. अंततः, having professionals who we got along with and trusted gave us a stress-free experience from start to finish.
स्वयं की योजना बनाने के लिए मेरी सर्वोत्तम व्यावहारिक सलाह: Always remember the “why” behind your marriage and wedding. Stay true to yourself as a couple, and focus on what’s important to you both. Be flexible and don’t fret about the small stuff. Trust the professionals—they’ve planned and prepared for way more weddings than you.
शादी के बारे में पसंदीदा बात:
His: The SURPRISE! The nerves, joy, हँसी, and pure shenanigans fit us as a couple perfectly. भी, the intimate environment allowed us to spend time with all of our guests throughout the night.
Hers: Spending so much one-on-one time with my partner on the day of the wedding. We were able to relax and focus on ourselves, not on everyone or everything else.
और कुछ: Our original wedding was set to be at Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel in June 2021. यह एक बहुत बड़ी अतिथि संख्या के साथ एक आश्चर्यजनक विवाह के रूप में प्रस्तावित विवाह होने जा रहा था.
Once we knew the wedding was unable to happen on our original date, we scrambled to find a way to still have our wedding within our desired month. We hired ग्रे इवेंट के अलावा कुछ भी, and Holly managed to plan our wedding in 3 months taking our original vision out of this world and incorporating Disney magic in all aspects of our wedding! It was exactly the wedding it was always meant to be. Keeping it intimate, manageable, and heart-centered was at the core of what we wanted.
