Julie and lisa ‘I planned things, of course, but I truly just allowed things to fall into place, and we chose to laugh when things didn’t go as planned.’ and i share. We have heard countless times that we have ‘visible love’ for each other – even in pictures. Our wedding was one of the best days of our lives – everything was perfect, even when it wasn’t. it was so great to see everything fall into place, but the best part was just being in love with each other and seeing so many of our friends and family travel so far, just to celebrate and support our love. 90 » pink weddings magazine Thinking back to the real high points, we both really loved our ‘first look’. lisa wasn’t too excited about the idea of seeing each other before the actual ceremony, but it turned out to be our very favourite moment. she cried when she turned around and saw me, and i cried too. We were able to experience and discuss our emotions with each other, something that we wouldn’t have been able to do if we had first seen each other walking down the aisle. Our videographer said that it was one of the best first looks he had ever witnessed. My top tip for other couples is not to be so picky. The more particular you are about things, the greater the chance that something is going to stress you out on a day that should be so happy. i planned things, of course, but i truly just allowed things to fall into place, and we chose to laugh when things didn’t go as planned.
