From the Bride…

Funny wedding memory me and my mother in law (crazy to say) were just talking about how we did almost have a ride to the mass and you were about to hail a cab haha

Cake was actually made by the Hilton which was great  Cake topper was a lladro
Best wedding memory was when of course being pronounced Mr and Mrs John Aye, but also my favorite was being on the balcony and seeing everybody there for us and that when it all hit me that we just got married 
Best advice I received before our wedding is that the day goes by so fast take time to take it all in and that’s exactly what we did! It was the best event we will ever throw .. and I loved every part and second of the day! 
Dj was James Traut big fish productions- he was absolutely great!”
