Vendor Love

I find myself obsessed with all the parts of my wedding, including my vendors.  They are amazing.  All of them.  From David, the funny British manager of Laraine winery where we will have the big event to my stylish, creative caterer Karen from Lila and Sage who I think totally gets my vision and is supportive and responsive to all of my wishes.  Then there's Ashley Maxwell, who my dad refers to as my "high priced photographer", when really she's right in line with the rest of the photographers I considered.  I think this is where my vendor obsession began because it was love at first view of her site...her style totally captures what I'm looking for.  I'm also blessed to have one of the absolute best floral designers around as my future sister-in-law.  I've referred so many friends and co-workers to LaniElizabeth because their style is so rich and lush, and they definitely don't shy away from being cutting edge and taking their work beyond just traditional. As one of my beloved bridesmaids, Elizabeth A. will be more consultant than actual designer, but thankfully I have her creative brain to help guide me with my floral choices. 

I can't wait to see all of these creative geniuses come together to make magic!
