Do you take on more than one wedding per weekend?
Nope! My focus is fully committed to one Destination or South Florida event per weekend. They will always have my full attention from rehearsal through wedding day! There are so many special details that go into their wedding weekend and I ALWAYS want my clients to feel like the main priority on their wedding day.
