Their favorite memory: “Our officiant came up with the most beautiful poem, tailored to our childhood, adolescent and adult lives. Then he had us turn towards our guests (who traveled from Florida to Tennessee) and said, ‘If anyone here would not hesitate to help Tiffany and Ben in a time of need, please stand.’ Every single guest stood up for us. It was the coolest moment and really solidified the love everyone had for us as a couple.”

Their favorite memory: “When our photographer took us outside as the sun was setting for some really great photos. We had a ton of fun doing all sorts of funny poses and Wildalys was great at getting us to loosen up. It really ended up being a special experience."

Their favorite memory: “Every moment of that day was an absolute dream. Between reading our vows during our first touch, finally seeing each other at the altar and dancing all night long with our loved ones, it is impossible to choose. It was the best night of our lives.”
