Wedding Morning

On the heels of a fantastic weekend spent in New Jersey, both getting a bridal party ready for a wedding, and then attending a sea side wedding myself, I thought I would highlight the importance of the wedding morning.  
Ruthie and I are with bridal parties the morning of the wedding all of the time, and I think it is such an important part of the day because it really sets the tone for the remainder of the day.  I have such great memories of getting ready in my bridal suite the morning of my wedding, getting hair and makeup done, having coffee with my friends, playing with my niece, and listening to great music.  
Whether you’re at home getting ready, at the reception site or hotel, it doesn’t matter.  The wedding morning can be such a fun time and a nice distracter if you’re feeling those pre-wedding nerves!  .
Here are some fun tips for starting off your wedding day:
