Stuart & Caitlyn Simpson Dodds


Wedding date: November 9, 2019

BRIDE’S FAVORITE ELEMENT OF THE WEDDING

“Before we entered the reception, our wedding planner arranged a private dinner for us to enjoy our first meal together as husband and wife. Those precious, valuable moments allowed us some uninterrupted time to slow down and experience the joy of being newlyweds.”

HER ADVICE FOR OTHER COUPLES

“It is never too early to start planning. If your budget allows, a wedding planner can make your life so much easier. They will coordinate vendors and handle any unforeseen complications on the big day so you can focus on soaking up every minute. It will go by in a flash!”
