By our real bride, Rachele:
What was the vision for your wedding?
Fall is my favorite season so I just knew that’s when I wanted to get married. I planned a fall, rustic, bohemian-style wedding and everything turned out just as I had envisioned. We had lots of terracotta, dark green, and pampas. I honestly would not have changed a single thing if I had the chance to. It truly was the most incredible day ever!
How did it go the day-of?
Honestly, Meredith at Belles on the Bluff made my day SO special! She took all of my “day of stress” from me and executed all of my wedding dreams. She coordinated with all of the vendors the day-of so I was able to spend the morning with my bridesmaids and family getting ready. We had a small intimate cake for the two of us and cookies for our guests. We also set up baby pictures of ourselves at each table for our guests to recall and discuss our childhood memories. Our officiant was a very close family friend which made our ceremony feel more personal and intimate. We just absolutely loved everything about our day!
What is your #1 tip to future brides?
My number one tip would be to slow down the day-of (easier said than done!) and try to enjoy and cherish every moment. Find a crew that helps you have a stress-free day so that you and your new husband can enjoy your day!
