Question

Please, put the phones away...

Answer

We've hired an incredible photographer and we want her best work to shine. We ask during the ceremony, please keep your phones away. There will be plenty of time for that after. We do not want to have photos with your phones in front of your face, we want to see our loved ones faces in our forever memories. *also, if you really know us, we will cause a scene, please for the love of all things, keep the phones tucked away during something as sacred as a CEREMONY*
