  • Can we observe an event?

    We do not allow our clients to observe us at another couples wedding. We believe that on the day we are at someones wedding we need to be 100% focused on the Bride and Groom we are working with for that day! We believe they deserve our full attention and focus, and we do not want to distribute our time during that day trying to make a sale, as we feel that is disrespectful to the current couple we are working with. And of course that same undivided attention is what you will receive on your big day as well if you book with us!
