#Schmitten
Traditional, romantic. Ballroom/big church dress.
'Just cares about the really important stuff', likes videographers that include the ceremony and reception. Likes the 'inclusive' package, stands up to them.
Couple & Party
Bride: Andra Roventa
Groom: Frank Schmitt
Party Details: (Each side size, family details, etc.)
Between 100 - 150 guests
Style Notes
Music:
- Andra likes country music, frank does not, no country at all per franks face when country came up on the call
- Andra likes Indie/Folk
- Not too mainstream
- Not a big fan of cliche romantic pop stuff, no big name stuff
likes the idea of accoustic/Dinsey cover, sweeter. Told her we can't do disnet, but will do something sweet.
