I felt like I could have stood up there during the ceremony forever. The feeling was unlike anything I\u00b4ve ever experienced, so that would be the most memorable for <em>me<\/em>. Being surrounded by loved ones sending all their mindful intentions towards our union. I also surprised Andrew by planning a live acoustic performance from our two best friends during the cocktail hour. So, being serenaded by our dear friends was an unforgettable moment. And as a closing to the night, Andrew\u00b4s best man had the DJ play a popular hit by Andrew\u00b4s old band \u00a8Someday Never\u00a8, who was a big local band back in the day. Everyone went nuts. I fangirled out because I used to love that band before I knew Andrew and obviously knew all the words. It was so awesome!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"695\" src=\"https:\/\/withjoy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/IMG_6291-1024x695.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-68430\" srcset=\"https:\/\/withjoy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/IMG_6291-1024x695.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/withjoy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/IMG_6291-300x204.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/withjoy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/IMG_6291-768x522.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/withjoy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/IMG_6291-1536x1043.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/withjoy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/IMG_6291-1170x794.jpeg 1170w, https:\/\/withjoy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/IMG_6291-585x397.jpeg 585w, https:\/\/withjoy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/IMG_6291-24x16.jpeg 24w, https:\/\/withjoy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/IMG_6291-36x24.jpeg 36w, https:\/\/withjoy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/IMG_6291-52x35.jpeg 52w, https:\/\/withjoy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/IMG_6291.jpeg 1829w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What were the colors of your wedding?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Very colorful!

My husband and I could not be more grateful to the married couple photography duo, Rocksteady Images, who we consider to be an absolute <em>highlight<\/em> and major contributor to the day.

I couldn\u00b4t have imagined doing this without her. She is not only talented and actually <em>listens<\/em> to what you want, but she also is caring in her nature and loves to serve others, making them feel beautiful, comfortable, and happy. She is great at communication and coordinating time with other vendors.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Makeup Artist:<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/the.lash.genie\/\"> Candance Turner<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>I saw Candace do someone\u00b4s makeup years ago and knew I had to hire her when my time came to get married. She currently does a lot of eyelash extensions, but still doing makeup for events! She <em>showed<\/em> <em>up<\/em> for my day and did an amazing job making us feel beautiful. She is down to earth and honest which I respect the most. She also did a great job coordinating with the other vendors to stay on schedule.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Transportation:<a href=\"https:\/\/kinglimoinc.com\"> King Limousine and Transportation Service INC<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>Another breath of fresh air during this stressful time!
