Round Up: Sarah Yates

Capture the oh-so-pretty details of the big day with oh-so-pretty images from Sarah Yates! See her work here and meet her at HITCHED.

Why do you do what you do?

because it's fun and majorly rewarding on so many levels. plus i can't think of anything i'd rather do more..unless there's a profession i'm not aware of where i could travel the world having luxury adventures and cuddling puppies.

What should brides/grooms know about your service?

you're not going to look back on your wedding photos in 10, 20, 30 years and go "WHAT WERE WE THINKING!". i keep things classic and stay away from the trends. and, i put FUN very high on the priority list for the day.

What makes a wedding super rad to you?

a couple whose love makes everyone at their wedding glow. i've seen it, and it's the most amazing thing.

also, a dessert bar that involves anything chocolate.

Name one wedding tradition that you wish to see re-invented.

i'd like to see more dogs replacing ring bearers at weddings. other animals would also be welcome.

What do you want the guests at HITCHED to remember about you?

i'm changing this question to : what do you want the guests at HITCHED to remember about weddings?

it's YOUR wedding, do it how YOU want to. bring your personalities into it, choose your vendors based not only on the quality of their work (which you should LOVE) but also on their personalities, eat lots of your wedding cake (cupcakes, dessert bar, whatever), laugh often, don't hold back the happy tears, and most importantly: stay focused on what it's all about.... YOU'RE GETTING MARRIED!!!!
