{real wedding} perfectly bright spring wedding at ace hotel palm springs

congratulations Susan and Adrian!

Susan and Adrian are dear friends of mutual friends of mine.

make sense?

it was super fun, at least for me, to help Susan every so often with ideas, 

but more so to calm her down and keep her grounded while wedding planning.

and like every wedding, in the end, despite all the worries and woes, the day still was pretty flippin' amazing.

Susan also was kind enough to share a couple of tidbits of advice to those wedding planning:

1) don't be afraid to ask for help from family and friends - they won't mind as much as you might think
    2) really understand how much the little things will cost (flowers, photographers) before you set a budget or decide on a venue
    3) document everything thats important to you and hand it off to a coordinator you trust
    4) start off your wedding day with a mimosa (or two!) and don't task yourself with anything besides dressing up and having fun
