I was like many young, little girls and started planning my dream wedding years before I met my prince charming. My mom listened to my endless ideas over the years, and when the time came to start planning my real wedding, she made it her mission to be sure that my dream wedding came to life. She has helped me every step of the way and I am certain that many things would not have been possible without her. Mom, thank you for calming me down when wedding planning got the best of me, for answering my texts at 2 am because I had a brilliant new idea, for painting and crafting until your fingers turned gold, and for giving me the wedding of my dreams. I love you!
