To Jessica (wedding co-coordinator) at Palazzo Versace for making our wedding reception planning so easy.

In your experience what did you value most about using a professional photographer? How easy and fun it was to work with both Ben and Lisa, they were never in our way,

and it was so easy to get along with them. Awesome Team 🙂   

Advice for other brides-to-be: Communication between a couple is the key during the planning of the wedding, always remember to enjoy the planning and especially the wedding day.  Have Fun 🙂
