We are having an unplugged ceremony, meaning that once the ceremony begins, we ask that all phones be put away and silenced. We want everyone to be fully present with us and for our amazing photographer to be able to capture the best pictures which we will share with you. Once the ceremony is over feel free to take as many pictures as you'd like and don't forget to share them with us. Please avoid using flash photography during the 1st dance, cake cutting, toasts, and other formalities so that the photographer can get the shots needed.
