She also played a number of other Disney songs as guests arrived. In fact, she learned lots of new songs for us, which we really appreciated. We hired a DJ for the evening, he did a great job and got everyone up on the dancefloor. My favourite part of the day was probably the first dance to Once Upon a Dream. I felt like a princess in a fairy tale. Plan and organise everything as much as you can before the wedding day. For example, send your suppliers your timeline and include emergency contacts for them to use on the day. Likewise, send this to the wedding coordinators, bridesmaids and groomsmen along with all of the suppliers’ contacts. This means you won’t have to worry about anything on the day and can enjoy peace of mind. WITH THANKS My hair and make-up artists, Suzy and Kelli, were amazing on the morning of the wedding. They were so friendly and bubbly, which I think is why I didn’t really feel nervous while getting ready. They managed to see to everyone on time and made the morning preparations an enjoyable experience. Our photographer Flo went above and beyond on the day, and captured the most incredible photos that we will cherish forever. She also made everyone feel really comfortable and at ease. The fact that she was able to capture so many great images without making us all feel as though we were on a photo shoot is truly an art! 40
