In the last two months before our wedding we were debating on whether to spend money on getting a DJ for our wedding or save money and do an iPod playlist.

At the very last minute, after chatting on the phone with Jeff, it was an easy decision. We knew we would be in good hands after reading all the great feedback about Jeff.

Mum and Dad fly out this morning but they wanted me to say –

As funny as this sounds, I would truthfully say that it’s almost as hard to write a recommendation for Jeff as it was to write our wedding vows! Not because recommending Jeff is hard & but because it’s difficult to put into words how truly amazing he was throughout our entire wedding planning process! Contractually Jeff w…

READ MY FULL PHILOSOPHY

You’re inviting your favorite people from all over the world — they deserve an amazing celebration. We set a clear outcome (so-worth-the-trip, so-you-two, best-ever) and reverse-engineer the moments that create it.
