<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h4 style="text-align: center;">We loved working with this fun-loving couple and honestly enjoyed every minute of their gorgeous Wedding and Reception here at Our Ranch!</h4>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em>We reached out to the newlyweds, asking a few questions about their big day, and they gave us a list of all their favorite memories. </em></p>

<div style="text-align: center;"><em>Tell us about your wedding! What was the inspiration behind your day? </em></div>
<div></div>
<div></div>
<div style="text-align: center;"><em><strong>Hillary:</strong> </em>&#8220;The moment we arrived at the Ranch, we knew it was special. It was the first of four venues we toured, and nothing else compared. I envisioned simple, elegant decor with pops of reds, pinks, and oranges. The Ranch is so gorgeous. I really didn&#8217;t think it needed too many additional touches to highlight how pretty the venue is.&#8221;</div>

<div></div>
<div style="text-align: center;"><b><i>H: </i></b>&#8220;I didn&#8217;t necessarily have a specific vision I just knew what I didn&#8217;t want&#8230; the gals at <a href="https://www.thebustledelmar.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Bustle</a> in Del Mar were so helpful!  After a long day of trying on what felt like a million dresses at a few other bridal salons, I described my preferences to the attendant. She pulled a few dresses and made adjustments based on my feedback. When I put on THE dress, she added the veil, and I started crying&#8230; something I certainly didn&#8217;t expect!&#8221;</div>

<div style="text-align: center;"><em><strong>H:</strong> </em>&#8220;We were super excited to get the party started and really looked forward to our music selection &#8211; we selected all of the songs for our cocktail hour, dinner, and dancing. We got lots of compliments from our guests, which was awesome since we did take a lot of time putting the music selection together. Also, we were engaged for almost two years &#8211; we held out for our date, 9/21, because of Earth, Wind, and Fire. We closed out the party with &#8216;September&#8217;!&#8221;</div>

<h2 style="text-align: center;">Golden Days of Summer</h2>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h4 style="text-align: center;">Devon and Collin had vibrant florals and lots of gold accents to bring out all the warmth of their love to their Wedding and Reception here at our Ranch.</h4>
<p style="text-align: center;">We asked them to share some of their thoughts about their big day, and the answers are so sweet!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="https://leocarrilloranchweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/Brown-Ellis-May-31-2019-80.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-56186 size-large" src="https://leocarrilloranchweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/Brown-Ellis-May-31-2019-80-1024x683.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="683" srcset="https://leocarrilloranchweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/Brown-Ellis-May-31-2019-80-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https://leocarrilloranchweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/Brown-Ellis-May-31-2019-80-300x200.jpg 300w, https://leocarrilloranchweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/Brown-Ellis-May-31-2019-80-768x512.jpg 768w, https://leocarrilloranchweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/Brown-Ellis-May-31-2019-80-700x467.jpg 700w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">The lovebirds got ready in our Bridal Suite and Groom&#8217;s Room, and we loved how perfectly their rustic-chic motif went with all the abundant natural beauty.</h3>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><i>How did you meet?</i></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em><strong>Devon</strong></em>: &#8220;Collin and I met <span style="font-size: 1.125rem; letter-spacing: 0px;">our Freshman year in 2010</span><span style="font-size: 1.125rem; letter-spacing: 0px;"> at Northwestern University in Chicago, IL. We were both student-athletes &#8211; he played football, and I played golf. We were friends for a few years and then started dating in 2013.&#8221;</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

<h4></h4>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">We loved this picture taken by <a href="https://laurieashleyphotography.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Laurie Ashley Photography</a>. She had so many unique angles we&#8217;d never seen to achieve the perfect shot.</h3>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em>Tell us about your proposal!</em></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><em>Devon:</em></strong> &#8220;Collin and I still live in Chicago close to Wrigley Field. The area around the field was recently renovated with nice restaurants and a new hotel &#8211; Hotel Zachary. When we walked into the lobby of the hotel, Collin proceeded to walk past the bar and straight to the elevators that went up to the guest floors. He said there was a &#8220;second bar&#8221; on a higher floor, but when we got out on a higher floor, it was clearly just guest rooms. We went into one of the hotel rooms overlooking Wrigley Field, the door to the room was propped open with a &#8220;Model Suite&#8221; sign on the door, he said to check it out. Once inside the room, we turned the corner there was an arch of market lights and flowers on the floor with balloons in the shape of the word &#8220;Love&#8221; in the background. He got down on one knee, and I said: &#8216;Of Course!&#8217; After the proposal, my best friend popped out of hiding and took pictures of us. We ended up staying the night in the beautiful hotel. It was a wonderful night, and I was definitely surprised!&#8221;</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://laurieashleyphotography.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Laurie Ashley Photography</a> also captured this special moment below.</h3>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>The happy couple went without a first look, opting to share a private moment before the ceremony just out of sight from each other beneath one of our many romantic arches.</strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><em>D:</em> &#8220;</strong>We had a &#8216;first touch&#8217; before the ceremony. We didn&#8217;t see each other, but on a corner of the building, Collin stood on one side, and I stood on the other, and we held hands moments before walking down the aisle. We didn&#8217;t say much, but after the months of planning and the craziness of getting hair and makeup done all morning, worrying that everything was going to fall in place, that moment was calming and reassuring that the day was going to be perfect.&#8221;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.studiofleurish.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Studio Fleurish </a>decked our pepper tree with a dreamy garland of roses in luscious shades of pink for the ceremony.</h3>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><i>Tell us about your wedding! What was the inspiration behind your day? </i></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><em>D:</em></strong> &#8220;We loved that tree and wanted that to be the star of the show. We put a garland around the tree and kept the aisle simple with two floral arrangements at the last two guest chairs at the start of the aisle.&#8221;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">Heartfelt touches like this are always so special to us.</h3>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em><strong>D:</strong> &#8220;Collin&#8217;s</em> dad passed away his senior year of high school. It was important to us to honor his memory, so we brought Collin&#8217;s favorite pair of his dad&#8217;s cowboy boots to the wedding and put them on a seat for the ceremony with Collin&#8217;s Dad&#8217;s name on a reserved sign.&#8221;</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.nickweissmusic.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Nick Weiss </a>welcomed guests to the ceremony site and heralded Devon down the aisle with his talented guitar skills.</h3>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em><strong>D:</strong> &#8220;Collin&#8217;s</em> stepdad, John, performed the <span style="font-family: Segoe UI,sans-serif;">ceremony</span>. One of Collin&#8217;s Mom and Stepdad&#8217;s wedding gifts to us was a large leather bible, with our names engraved on the front, that he used during the ceremony. That was a special gift we will enjoy for the rest of our lives.&#8221;</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">You&#8217;ve got to love the look on Collin&#8217;s face!</h3>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">This glow keeps spreading, onto Devon, and even we can&#8217;t help but smile!</h3>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<div>
<p style="text-align: center;"><i>How did you both choose your wedding day look?</i><u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em><strong>D:</strong> &#8220;</em>We wanted to keep it classic and romantic, but also relaxed and true to the gorgeous venue. Collin and his groomsman wore matching navy suits from Banana Republic with blush ties and socks. I was in an all lace blush and form-fitting ivory gown from BHLDN, and my bridesmaids were in flowy Jenny Yoo dresses. My sister, the Maid of Honor, was in a solid blush color, while my two Bridesmaids &#8211; my now sister in law and best friend &#8211; wore a blush watercolor print, which matched our overall color palette well. My shoes and earrings were rose gold, inspired by my rings.&#8221;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">After the ceremony, <a href="https://www.personaltouchdining.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Personal Touch Dining </a>started the party by serving up the newlywed&#8217;s signature drink, and some incredible bite-sized appetizers.</h3>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<div>
<p style="text-align: center;"><i>Did you personalize the day in any way? </i><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><em>D:</em></strong> &#8220;Signature Drink and Party Accessories &#8211; We featured our dog, Chi a lot. It was important for us to include him as he is a big part of our lives and family. We had a signature drink named after him and got a beautiful sign made from a vendor on Etsy with a watercolor of his face. We displayed this sign on the bar.&#8221;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">To have and to hold, to keep the beers cold, custom koozies are always a hit for the perfect wedding favor!</h3>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><em>D:</em> &#8220;</strong>The Koozies we handed out at the bar included a hunting-related phrase, &#8216;The Hunt Is Over.&#8217; Collin grew up hunting in LA and still does in Chicago. It is a large part of his identity, and we thought this phrase fit the bill. We also included antlers in our decor that are representative of our style and Collin&#8217;s hunting.&#8221;</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">Finding their seats for dinner was easy for guests on this rustic seating chart, thanks to the available escort cards.</h3>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="https://leocarrilloranchweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/Brown-Ellis-May-31-2019-96.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-large wp-image-56178 aligncenter" src="https://leocarrilloranchweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/Brown-Ellis-May-31-2019-96-1024x683.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="683" srcset="https://leocarrilloranchweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/Brown-Ellis-May-31-2019-96-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https://leocarrilloranchweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/Brown-Ellis-May-31-2019-96-300x200.jpg 300w, https://leocarrilloranchweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/Brown-Ellis-May-31-2019-96-768x512.jpg 768w, https://leocarrilloranchweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/Brown-Ellis-May-31-2019-96-700x467.jpg 700w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">The floor looked dressed and ready for dinner!</h3>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>We love the classic white linens against our dark wood dining chairs.</strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong><em>D:</em> &#8220;</strong>We wanted our wedding to be relaxed, but traditional, colorful, and just a good time for our friends and family. Growing up in CA, I always dreamed of an outdoor wedding with market lights and CA vegetation. Most of our friends and family traveled from other states, so we ultimately wanted to give them a true CA feel, and Leo Carrillo Ranch was the perfect venue for our vision.&#8221;</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.studiofleurish.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Studio Fleurish </a>took charge of the gorgeous floral arrangements on each table for the simple, yet elegant, centerpieces.</h3>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em><strong>D:</strong></em> &#8220;After the first meeting with our wonderful florist, Studio Fleurish, Nadine used the three words: &#8216;Classic Romantic Elegance&#8217; and I think those were three buzzwords I kept in mind throughout the planning process. Color Palette: Bright Pink, Blush, Ivory, Yellow &#8211; Large florals with bright greenery &#8211; with Navy and Gold accents.&#8221;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

<h4></h4>
<h3 style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.personaltouchdining.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Personal Touch Dining </a>helped set tables and brought Devon and Collin&#8217;s tablescape vision to life.</h3>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>We&#8217;re always up for unique napkin folds, and this was the first time we&#8217;d had a couple ask for this arrangement!</strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em><strong>D:</strong></em> &#8220;We created the table numbers on Minted &#8211; One side was the table number surrounded by a gold border, and the other side was a photo of Collin and me with a thank you note to our guests. We brought in gold chargers for the table settings to add more pops of gold. The menus at each seat matched our wedding invitations and had a gold floral design on them.&#8221;</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">After a charming Grand Entrance and First Dance, <a href="https://www.personaltouchdining.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Personal Touch Dining</a> treated us to another fantastic dining experience!</h3>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em><strong>D:</strong></em> &#8220;When the DJ announced us as Mr. and Mrs. walking into the reception and all of our guests were standing and smiling and clapping for us, that was a pretty surreal moment. The love and happiness we felt was really great.&#8221;</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://thephotobus.us/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The SD Photo Bus </a>always adds a fun twist to a classic photo booth.</h3>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Guests love all the wild props and instant photos to take home!</strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em><strong>D:</strong></em> &#8220;We had &#8216;heads on a stick&#8217; signs made of his face that people used on the dance floor and in the Photo Bus. Some of our favorite photographs from the wedding included these signs of our dog&#8217;s face &#8211; Collin and I took a series in the front of the photo bus with us holding the signs over our faces. I have these framed!&#8221;</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.personaltouchdining.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Personal Touch Dining</a> helped supplement the dessert bar so the happy couple could keep their cake and still satisfy everyone&#8217;s sweet tooth.</h3>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>The shelves behind the dessert bar in the Cabana are great for displaying favorite photos!</strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em><strong>D:</strong></em> &#8220;We had a hashtag sign made for the wedding &#8211; #alwaysandforEllis. We also included a lot of pictures from our engagement sessions in Chicago and San Diego. We got mismatched wood and gold frames to feature these photographs in the cabana area. I also framed a floral heart print I gave my Maid of Honor and Bridesmaids for the cabana area.&#8221;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">Finally, the last song ended, and our incredible coordination team helped all the guests line up for the Grand Exit out in front of the Hacienda!</h3>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><i>What were some of your favorite parts of your wedding?</i></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em><strong>D:</strong></em> &#8220;Seeing how 13 months of planning turned out &#8211; it was more than we could have imagined between our vision, the visions of our vendors, and Personal Touch Dining. It was surreal looking out from the bridal suite to see the guest tables and the Photo Bus being set up.&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&#8220;More specifically: FLOWERS!!! And Grand Exit (Our friends and family held up foam glow sticks, and running through that sea of people and colors was a great way to end the night.)&#8221;</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">We loved having these two celebrate the beginning of their forever here at the Ranch!</h3>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><i>Do you have any wedding planning or marriage advice that you&#8217;d like to share with other couples planning their day?</i><u></u><u></u></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em><strong>D: &#8220;</strong></em>Collin traveled during the week, so we had wedding planning &#8216;check-in&#8217; meetings on Sunday evenings. It was nice to have that designated time to sit down together and talk/update each other for just an hour or two every week. If something came up during the workweek, I would just set it aside for the weekend &#8211; made the week a little less stressful knowing that whatever came up would be addressed on Sunday.&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&#8220;During the planning process, to see how everything was coming together, I made a single page planning board/collage and would update that when I started purchasing items for the day to see everything come together, and all the colors. It was a fun activity, and got our families that much more excited for the big day and us.&#8221;</p>

<h3 style="text-align: center;">Framing the window in our Bridal Suite, the bridal bouquets from <a href="http://www.flowersbymaemae.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Flowers by Mae Mae </a>welcomed Becky and her bridesmaids with their vivid coral and lush burgundy blooms.</h3>

<h4></h4>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">Becky was super sweet and answered a few questions for us about her experience planning!</h3>
<h4 style="text-align: center;"><i><span style="font-family: calluna;">How did you both choose your wedding day look?</span></i></h4>

<h2>Springtime Sunshine at the Ranch!</h2>
<div><i><b> </b></i></div>
<h3><a href="https://www.annadelores.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Anna Delores Photography</a> shared these pictures from Lily and Ross&#8217; charming Spring Wedding and Reception here at the Ranch last year!</h3>
<h4>We reached out to the newlyweds and asked for a little inside scoop of what they remembered most about their big day, and if they had any tips for future couples.</h4>
<div></div>
<div><i> </i></div>
<div>
<div><strong><em>How did you meet? Tell us about the proposal.</em></strong></div>
<div></div>
<div><strong>Lily:</strong> &#8220;We met via OkCupid in D.C. in October 2011. I was a speech-language pathology grad student at GWU, and Ross was working at the Treasury Department. We hit it off on our first date and have been together ever since! Four and a half years, two cross-country moves, and three Brooklyn apartments later, Ross proposed in Central Park in March 2016. A mutual friend&#8217;s grandmother made the ring from an heirloom diamond my grandfather found on a Brooklyn street in the 1950s.&#8221;</div>
<div></div>

<p><a href="https://leocarrilloranchweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/Beale-Wirsing-March-15-2019-163.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-55983" src="https://leocarrilloranchweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/Beale-Wirsing-March-15-2019-163-683x1024.jpg" alt="" width="683" height="1024" srcset="https://leocarrilloranchweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/Beale-Wirsing-March-15-2019-163-683x1024.jpg 683w, https://leocarrilloranchweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/Beale-Wirsing-March-15-2019-163-200x300.jpg 200w, https://leocarrilloranchweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/Beale-Wirsing-March-15-2019-163-768x1152.jpg 768w, https://leocarrilloranchweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/Beale-Wirsing-March-15-2019-163-700x1050.jpg 700w, https://leocarrilloranchweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/Beale-Wirsing-March-15-2019-163.jpg 1067w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px" /></a></p>
<div></div>
<div>
<div>
<div><strong><em>Tell us about your wedding! What was the inspiration behind your day? </em></strong></div>
<div></div>
<p><strong>Lily:</strong> &#8220;Our biggest inspiration was the ranch itself. We were and are absolutely in love with the space, and it was important to us that our aesthetic choices serve as complementary touches to the existing structures and gardens.</div>
<div>That said, I had the hardest time making decisions on almost everything wedding-related! It took me months to settle on yellow and white with lots of greenery for our flowers. Luckily, Kristin Osterloh,&#8221; of <a href="https://kofloral.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">KO Floral Designs, </a>&#8220;did an amazing job with the garland and repurposing flowers from the ceremony to re-use at the reception.&#8221;</div>
</div>
<div></div>
<div></div>
<div></div>
<div></div>

<h3>During this time of the year, our feathered tenants are bold, beautiful, and always ready for their glamor shots!</h3>

<div><em><strong>What was the most anticipated or special moment of your wedding day?</strong></em></div>
<div></div>
<div><strong>Lily:</strong> &#8220;Saying our vows &#8211; I didn&#8217;t know it would make me so emotional, but I cried the entire time!&#8221;</div>

<div><em><strong>How did you decorate your space for the ceremony and the reception? Was any part of the decor DIY?</strong></em></div>
<div></div>
<div><strong>Lily:</strong> &#8220;LOL, this was the hardest part for me! I was SO stressed out about how to decorate the cabana, and I spent hours scouring the blog and LCR&#8217;s Pinterest for ideas. Most of our decor was DIY &#8211; we bought a bunch of frames from eBay and Goodwill for family photos, and I went to Target for streamers and paper flowers. Kristin probably contributed the most with her gorgeous floral designs, which we used for both the ceremony and reception.&#8221;</div>

<div><strong><em>How did you both choose your wedding day look?</em></strong></div>
<div></div>
<div><strong>Lily:</strong> &#8220;After we got engaged in 2016, I was totally overwhelmed with the multitude of options for my wedding! I had no idea where to start, so I thought, well if I pick a dress first, I can use that as a springboard for everything else (style, theme, color, etc.). I actually ended up buying a dress before we even set a date! But finding my dress really did help inform every other decision I made, including the location and venue.&#8221;</div>
<div>&#8220;Ross knew he wanted to wear a blue suit, but was having trouble finding the right shade and cut. He initially bought a $500 suit online, which ended up looking terrible because the fit was all wrong. Luckily he found a beautifully cut wool suit at Bonobos about a month before the wedding, which fit perfectly!&#8221;</div>

<p><strong><em>What were some of your favorite parts of your wedding?</em></strong></p>
<p><strong>Lily:</strong> &#8220;Our favorite parts of our wedding were the sweet speeches from our family and friends, our first dance, and getting to spend time with the people we love but don&#8217;t get to see often enough. It was really special to have our dear friend read the poem Ross read to me when he proposed (Having a Coke with You, by Frank O&#8217;Hara) during our ceremony. Another special moment came from Ross&#8217;s aunt, Annie Leibovitz, who took portraits of us before our ceremony, something we will always treasure.&#8221;</p>

<div><strong><em>Do you have any wedding planning or marriage advice that you&#8217;d like to share with other couples planning their day?</em></strong></div>
<div></div>
<div><strong>Lily:</strong> &#8220;Wedding planning is stressful! We decided early on what was most important and where we were willing to splurge versus what we didn&#8217;t really care about, so that definitely helped our decision making. Remember that you can pick and choose what to include in your celebration &#8211; you don&#8217;t have to follow every tradition or do things that are trendy right now if they&#8217;re not important to you. For instance, Ross and I never bring home wedding favors, so we didn&#8217;t have favors! Think about weddings you&#8217;ve attended or been part of &#8211; what worked and what didn&#8217;t work? What did you like/what did you not like?&#8221;</div>
<div></div>
<div><strong>Lily:</strong> &#8220;I would also advise couples to keep the not-so-fun yet essential logistics in mind! Plan these out first so you have a better sense of what &#8216;fun stuff&#8217; you can afford &#8211; for example, figure out transportation to and from the wedding for you and your guests before you book that photo booth or late night snack! Remember that you can almost always add things at the last minute if you have extra room in your budget, but it&#8217;s a lot harder to get back a deposit you&#8217;ve already put down or figure out how to cover an expense you didn&#8217;t plan for late in the game.&#8221;</div>
