Alicia and Dane’s Columbus Wedding

April 27th. My brother-in-law and now, sister-in-law’s big day in Columbus. An absolutely breathtaking, perfect wedding. The bride chose the best and most useful bridesmaids’ gifts (Vera Bradley bags filled with things we may need on the big day, pictured below) and the cutest bridesmaids’ robes. While the ladies were prepping for the ceremony, the men were able to have a private bowling session at The Athletic Club. Their ceremony and reception sites were beautiful, historic, and within close walking distance from each other. A dream photographer/videographer/DJ team (they were SO fun and worked extremely well with the kids.) The flowers were just what the bride asked for and more. Oh, the cake. Just look at the picture below. I can say no more. And, if you get me started on Ross from Phia Salon — oh my goodness. He does exactly what you ask for – I’m telling you, the pictures girls were showing him… just consider it done. He’s that good (can you tell I was pleased with my “Lauren Conrad waves” hair?). Columbus/Ohio ladies who are in the midst of planning their (future) wedding: Take note at the list below… these vendors are gooood!
