Tyler and I ask that you remain unplugged and live in the moment with us during our ceremony. We will have our officiant give everyone the change to take a picture during the ceremony. Then you will be asked to please silence your phones and let our hired photographers and videographers be the paparazzi for the ceremony. Photos of our adorable ring bearers are encouraged, but we ask you to refrain from ALL phone use once the flower man has finished his routine, so we can see your smiles from the Bride’s entrance to our first kiss as husband and wife. Thank you for understanding!
