Real Couples: Georgia & Kevin
Meet Georgia & Kevin! I know I sound like a broken record, but I really am blessed with the best couples. Georgia and Kevin are no exception! A conversation with Georgia is like a paid vacation. She puts you at ease the moment the conversation begins. Read more about them below...
Name:
Georgia Ryder and Kevin Nelson
Wedding Website:
www.theknot.com/ourwedding/GeorgiaRyder&KevinNelson
Where's Home?:
Houston, Texas
Why a Houston Wedding?:
We chose Houston as the location of our wedding because most of our friends and family are in the Houston area.
Length of engagement?:
7 months
How long until the wedding?
4 months!!
Who did you first tell you were engaged?
Well, we called both our parents, and no one was answering their phones!! We eventually got through to Kevin's grandmother first.
If you had to start over in your wedding planning, what one thing would you do differently?:
Enlist help from bridesmaids, friends, and family. I tend to try to do everything by myself, and that can be stressful.
During the ceremony, who will be the first to cry?:
ME!! I get teary eyed when I think about it.
What are your three favorite blogs/websites (besides STC's)?:
: They have discounted prices on everything that you would need, from candles, decorations, paper, and more.
: Our website is through The Knot. It features great tools for planning, budgeting, and the message boards are great to get ideas and talk through issues with other brides.
: The name says it all! Just pretty pictures of pretty weddings.
Why did you hire a wedding coordinator?:
I have a very busy schedule, and I knew that I would not have time to do it all myself, so I decided to hire a wedding coordinator. I decided on STC because of their great reputation, and because of Resha, in general. She has had experience with weddings in all budget ranges and all types. Since she has such a variety of experience and her welcoming personality, I knew that we would just click. Having the right relationship with your coordinator is key to making the planning more fun and not stressful!
Guys - if your wedding day is half a sweet as you are, it will be an amazing celebration. Thank you for letting me be a part of the planning process. Much love, Resha
