While our brides were prepped and pampered, our grooms got to enjoy some time to relax and mingle, patiently awaiting their spouses return. It was truly something to behold when they saw their bride…One look at their beautiful bride all glammed up and wedding-day-ready and the grooms fell in love all over again!
