When I give potential brides their consultation folder in my office I always include business cards of my favorite vendors – people I’ve worked with and trust explicitly to be professional, to take care of my clients and who I know do an amazing job. If I could assemble a dream team – this may have been it last Friday for Katelyn and Josh’s backyard wedding! We all had such a great time working together and enjoyed lots of laughs & seamlessly worked as 1 team to make their day perfect!
There are many great vendors in Bakersfield and I’ve had the pleasure of working with a lot of them – but here’s a peek into the behind the scenes photos of the amazing team Katelyn and her mom Kendra assembled for their wedding!
(**In our pre- wedding consult she made sure to get it on my list that they loved their vendors and wanted a photo with everyone if they could!)
Fairy Godmother Denise making all of Katelyn’s wedding day dreams come true! Loved working with her and Pam (sorry Pam, I didn’t grab a photo! love you!)
