Wedding Questionnaire
This is to help me get an idea of what all will be going on during your wedding. This will also help in the making on a timeline for your big day. If you need help/advice with your timeline, please do not hesitate to contact me and I will send you examples and walk you through it. I want your wedding day to go as smooth as possible so please fill this out at your earliest convenience, so we get start working out the details!
