The Photo Booth Guy Gets Married...



Well, I didn't JUST get married...To be exact, it has been 4 months and 8 days of complete marriage bliss. I proposed to Deanna on a pogo stick on the side of the highway in front of a heard of cows in South Dakota. Yes, that's how I did it. And I am just as surprised as you are that she said yes.

Since I work in the wedding industry, I thought planning would be easy. How wrong I was. I work with so many great vendors that picking vendors for our own wedding was extremely difficult.

So who did we book and where did we have it? We finally settled on Our Lady of Lourdes for the ceremony and Atlas Bar & Grill for the reception.

After much thought and consideration, we finally signed contracts with....

By Your Side Wedding Planning

Happily Ever After Photography (Photography)
Sassafras Floral + Garden Design (Flowers)
Instant Request (DJ)
Complete Video (Videography)
Buttercream (Cake)
Twin City Trolleys (Transportation)
The Traveling Photo Booth (duh, the photo booth)


Before we knew it, seating charts had been finalized, hair appointments and alterations had been made and friends and family were falling from the sky every hour on the hour.

The actual day was absolutely surreal. All I can remember is how beautiful Deanna looked, how sweaty and shaky my hands were, how great the speeches were (thanks Matt & Dave), how much love we felt and how much fun we had. It was absolutely perfect.

A small piece advice for those about to walk down that long isle: Walk really s-l-o-w and take at least one moment during that crazy day to take a really deep breath, soak it all in and remember that all is perfect...at least until you get the bill.
