If you are choosing a specific theme for your wedding/elopement, make sure you stay true to it throughout the entire planning process. The theme also needs to be close to your heart in order for you to have true inspiration. Take a lot of consideration into the vendors you hire. I see a lot of couples choose the cheapest route when they are eloping because they don’t want to damage their bank accounts – but you will be sorry if that cake is less than good when the time comes to take a bite! You need to be able to trust and love your vendors and many do a lot of elopements. So don’t be afraid to be honest with them and talk to them about your budget, needs and wants. I personally love it when couples are very open with communication with me because it makes my job easier. ~Natalie Landrum/Photographer
