Kathy and I are destined to be best friends. From the moment she called me to talk details, we instantly hit it off! Her and Derek have a little baby girl who is just a few months older than my babe so we obvi talked babies forever! By the time we hung up, I felt like I’ve known her forever. And when she told me that Derek’s a PGA caddy for Matt Every? Well that just summed up my hubby and his love for golf.

I instantly fell in love with all the details of her wedding, including the beautiful Blackstone Hotel! These two are two of the most relaxed people I’ve ever worked with. The day just felt natural and not rushed! Seeing Kathy get walked down the aisle by her father was moving. And then add to that just all the genuine and good people they surround themselves with? Well it was certainly a wedding anyone would want to attend <3
