"One of our favorite touches was the bride's touching tribute to her father who passed several years ago, he was a firefighter, and she had his helmet in the front row! She also had their adorable dog, Dozer, in the wedding!" - Olivia, Vellano Estate by Wedgewood Weddings

Brook, our coordinator, really went above and beyond to help us focus on the purpose of the day while she handled all other details. We really could not have asked for a better experience.
