The Robichaux Wedding
Annelise Gerami + Kyle Robichaux
Date: September 27, 2019
This was a very special wedding because it was the very first one that I got to plan from start to finish, and even more so because it was my very own! I think back to this day quite often and how special it was, so I figure why not do a highlight of it?!?
Looking back, there is just one thing I would change about our wedding day, and that would be to have been able to have had my sweet sister here to celebrate with us rather than from heaven. We truly had an awesome lineup of vendors, and I wish we could have a repeat of this day every year! In hindsight, the 9ish months of planning leading up to this day were filled with lots of stressful days and decisions. My hope is to help all of my couples have a celebration as great as Kyle and I’s wedding day without all of the stress that goes into planning. At minimum, I believe hiring a day-of coordinator is a must. I am so adamant about this, that I even hired a professional coordinator for my own wedding day! I believe it is so important to be able to focus on preparing for your marriage and the rest of your life instead of having to think about the little details on the day of your wedding.
