Behind the Scenes

After sharing the picture perfect, Inside Weddings Magazine feature from this Mexico Destination Wedding, we thought it would be a great idea to share a little bit of the behind the scenes! As you can imagine, so much goes into planning and executing a destination wedding. Planning from a far, transporting linens from Raleigh to Mexico, making rain plans, and pulling off four events in three days are just some of the factors we had to conquer!
