We had the pleasure of planning a unique Igba Nkwu Nwanyi ceremony that beautifully blended tradition with personal touches. Instead of following the traditional path, the bride and groom came together, each taking a sip of palm wine in a shared gesture of unity, with the blessings of the bride's father enriching the moment. The groom's genuine interest in embracing his bride's Igbo heritage was a beautiful aspect of their celebration.As wedding planners, our goal is to tailor each event to the couple's vision, making sure it reflects their individuality and shared values. This ceremony was a testament to that, showcasing how traditions can be adapted to suit the couple's preferences while still honoring cultural roots. Congratulations to the couple for creating such a meaningful celebration of their love and heritage.

Ending the night on a high note with a formal last dance isn't just a tradition; it's an unforgettable moment that leaves everyone spellbound.Here's why incorporating a last dance is a must in your wedding plans:
1️⃣ It provides a perfect, intimate closure for the couple, allowing them to have one final, private moment after all of the excitement of the day.
2️⃣ It signals a clear end to the evening's festivities, guiding guests smoothly towards the grand exit.
3️⃣ It offers a spectacular photo op, capturing the essence of your love and celebration in a single, magical frame.

Let's make your last dance a memory that echoes through time, long after the music fades.

I am definitely jealous of wedding photographers! They ALWAYS get the best seat for the first look!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Although a first look isn’t mandatory, it’s a great way to manage wedding day jitters, it helps free up time that would typically be used to take photos after the ceremony, and it’s just out right fun!

Prep photography doesn't have to be stiff. Just think of it as hanging out with your friends!

I love to plan time in our wedding schedule prior to the wedding to just capture candid prep ready photos. These moments are when you are truly yourself and tend to appear more relaxed in your photos! Prep photos are a great way to relax even the most camera-shy people.
