Allowing you to experience the MOMENTS I never had

When I married my wife, I couldn’t even imagine how the day would feel. I thought we were throwing a party for our friends and family, but when I woke up in the morning, I, who is usually very calm and composed, felt such big emotions.

Then I remember seeing my wife for the first time. I just wanted to take her hands and tell her all the things that were on my mind, but because the first time I saw her was literally when she was walking down the aisle at the beginning of our ceremony – in front of the priest and all our guests – I didn’t have the chance to say anything.

After the ceremony, everyone gathered around us, and we didn’t get a moment alone. And as the day went on, everything went under in the celebrations, the toasts, the cake cutting, everything. And that feeling I felt in the morning was gone.

Both my wife and I are all about the experience, so I know now that eloping would’ve been the right choice for us. We get self-conscious in front of crowds, and we care too much about how everybody else is doing and that they are happy and enjoying themselves. I mean, I love my friends and family, but that moment was supposed to be ours alone.

So, I want to help couples learn from my experience and understand that they are allowed to plan a day that is just for them and about their love.
