Love is not just about saying 'I do'; it's about being open and honest with your partner, families, and vendors. In the journey to your wedding day, transparency can be your greatest ally, forging connections, building trust, and creating an atmosphere of love and understanding.

A successful marriage starts with open hearts and open minds. Embracing transparency with your partner cultivates trust and deepens your emotional bond. Be open about your dreams, your fears, and your expectations for the future. Discuss your wedding visions openly, ensuring that both your desires are heard and respected. By doing so, you set the stage for a marriage founded on mutual respect and understanding.

Weddings often bring families together, each with their unique traditions, expectations, and hopes. Honest conversations with your families can bridge gaps and create a supportive environment. Share your plans and listen to their input with an open heart. Acknowledge their feelings and traditions, and find a harmonious balance that honors both your wishes and their sentiments. Being honest about your boundaries and expectations can lead to a wedding day that celebrates not just your love, but the unity of families.

Your wedding vendors are the magicians behind the scenes, turning dreams into reality. Open and clear communication with them is key to realizing your vision. Be honest about your budget, your preferences, and any concerns you might have. A transparent relationship with your vendors fosters collaboration and creativity. Share your inspirations and ideas openly, allowing them to infuse their expertise, creating a wedding that reflects your unique story.

The openness and honesty you nurture within your relationship, with your families, and among your vendors have a beautiful ripple effect. It sets a tone of respect, kindness, and acceptance that permeates your wedding day and beyond. Your guests will feel the warmth of your honesty, making your celebration not just a ceremony, but a profound experience of love and togetherness.

Remember, no wedding is perfect, just as no relationship is without its flaws. Embracing imperfections and openly acknowledging challenges can strengthen your bond. When you approach difficulties with honesty and love, you navigate them together, emerging stronger and more united. Your wedding becomes a testament to your resilience and your commitment to facing life’s challenges as a team.

In a world filled with fleeting moments, genuine love is built on the pillars of openness and honesty. As you embark on the beautiful journey to your wedding day, let these virtues be your guiding stars. Embrace openness with your partner, families, and vendors, and watch how your love story unfolds into a masterpiece of authenticity, trust, and enduring love. Here’s to a wedding that not only marks the beginning of your marital journey but also stands as a testament to the power of openness and honesty in every aspect of your life.

With love,

Ashley Trahan

Heber/Zarr Wedding - September 2023
"If you're looking for a magical and first class wedding reception, then City Club at River Ranch is the place to be! My daughter's wedding reception was absolutely beautiful and in her words, "It was just perfect and we would not have changed anything". Ashley at City Club was very helpful with question that we had from beginning to end. She was prompt in returning our phone calls and always open to meet with us at anytime, even on Saturdays since my daughter and fiance lived in Houston. The band had plenty of space to set up their stage and the food was delicious! From Houston to home in Lafayette, everyone said that it was the most magical and beautiful wedding reception and so much FUN!!! Thank you to Ashley at City Club for helping to make my 1st daughter's wedding reception the BEST night of her life!"
