A tip for couples planning their wedding:

If there is a vendor that you absolutely love, make sure you book them right away. Don't feel like you have to go in a certain order if there is something that is super important to you!

Vendors are booking up quickly for 2022 and 2023, so be sure you are securing the vendors you love as soon as you can.
