Assigned Seating vs Open Seating
April 6, 2016

As fun and exciting as most wedding planning tasks are, it is fair to say preparation for your big day also comes with some not-so-romantic checklist items. Cue budget discussions, generating the guest list and seating arrangement creation. We’re going to dive deeper on the latter topic and save the other two doozies for another day. When the times comes…

The way a wedding should be! Vicki and Aaron were quite possibly the most laid-back couple I’ve worked with since landing at the Holiday Inn. Although that hasn’t been long, these two did a great job of planning details where they mattered and not messing with the fuss of things that don’t! Their ceremony was held in a portion of…
