What (or who) helped you most in your planning process and/or on your wedding day?

My mother and I really worked together to come up with a wedding that really spoke to a classic DC wedding. We are both event planners so it was a lot of long nights making sure all the details were right!

Great advice, Ashley! Short, sweet, and to the point. I loved the gorgeous reception venue and especially loved the various slate tiles the couple used as chalkboards to note each table name. Super easy (you can find them at home improvement stores) and super cute.

Brides, would you consider an inventive way to display table names or numbers? I’d love to hear your ideas!

Happy Planning!
