Carissa
Today was a big day for Carissa and Theodore, filled with exciting wedding preparations. They had a full schedule ahead, booking their photographer, taking their engagement photos, finalizing the caterer, sending out save-the-dates, and setting up their wedding website. They were also finalizing the guest list, ensuring that everyone they loved would be part of their special day.
Carissa started the morning with a call to their chosen photographer, Sasha, who came highly recommended for her stunning and creative wedding photography. "Hi, Sasha, this is Carissa. We'd love to book you as our photographer for the wedding."
Sasha's voice was enthusiastic. "I'm thrilled to be part of your special day, Carissa. Let's set up a time for your engagement photos. How does this afternoon sound?"
"That sounds perfect!" Carissa replied, excitement bubbling in her voice.
After securing the booking, Carissa and Theodore headed to the picturesque location they had chosen for their engagement photos. Sasha met them there, her camera ready and a warm smile on her face. "You both look amazing," she said, guiding them through various poses and capturing the love and joy between them.
The photoshoot was fun and relaxed, with Sasha's expertise making them feel comfortable and at ease. Carissa's engagement dress, with its intricate lace and elegant silhouette, looked stunning in the photos, complemented by Theodore's sharp suit. Mia and Baby Camryn, dressed in their matching ivory dresses, added an extra touch of sweetness to the family photos.
With the photoshoot done, Carissa and Theodore moved on to their next task—meeting with the caterer. They arrived at the catering company's office, where they were greeted by the head chef, Maria. "Welcome, Carissa and Theodore. I'm excited to discuss your wedding menu."
Carissa smiled, feeling the excitement build. "Thank you, Maria. We're looking for a menu that's both delicious and elegant, with options that will please all our guests."
Maria listened attentively as they described their vision, suggesting various dishes that matched their tastes. After tasting some samples, they decided on a menu that included a variety of appetizers, entrees, and desserts that were sure to impress their guests.
Next on the agenda was sending out the save-the-dates. Carissa and Theodore had chosen a beautiful design that featured one of their engagement photos, capturing their love and happiness. They carefully addressed each envelope, making sure every detail was perfect before sending them off.
With the save-the-dates out of the way, they turned their attention to finalizing their wedding website. They worked together to create a site that included all the important details about their big day, from the venue and schedule to the RSVP form and accommodation options for out-of-town guests.
Finally, they sat down to finalize the guest list. With a cup of tea in hand, they reviewed the names one last time, ensuring that everyone who mattered to them would be part of their celebration. They double-checked addresses and made sure no one was left out.
As the day came to a close, Carissa and Theodore felt a deep sense of accomplishment. They had made significant progress in their wedding planning, and everything was falling into place beautifully. With each step, their excitement for the big day grew, and they knew that their wedding would be a celebration of love, joy, and togetherness.
In addition to all the wonderful preparations, Carissa made a heartfelt decision regarding the officiant for their wedding. She had chosen Bishop Thaddeus, Theodore's father, to perform the ceremony. It felt incredibly special to her to have him, her soon-to-be father-in-law, preside over their union.
