favorite love songs.
Is
there a detail that you had at your wedding that makes it unique? We
did a football theme for some of the pictures, and had the guys
wear their favorite college football team hat on with me throwing
the football. We did the garter toss with it on a football! We had
one of the ring bearers carry a homemade sign “Uncle Rob here
comes your girl”. Mariachis performed during dinner. We had a
photo booth which the guests loved!
What
was your pick for “first dance” with your husband? Is there
meaning to the song selection? Willie

getting ready with mimosas with all my girls, to finally walking

and music!
Did
you take a honeymoon? If so where did you go? Maui, Hawaii
What
is one piece of advice you will leave for future brides? Make
sure to do your research for vendors and read the reviews on
different sites. Anything you can do yourself really does save money
and makes it more personalized!
Thank you so much for sharing with us about your day, Sonja! We love your color palette and use of peacock feathers-gorgeous! The football garter toss is a fun twist too!
