​“Brian and Heidi…communicated clearly with us, and helped us create a small, intimate, and unforgettable ceremony.  Brian's ceremony met all our requests, and felt personal and unique to our own style and values. Heidi quickly set us up for photos, and made sure we got all the different groupings we'd requested in plenty of time. She also turned around the photos in record time!” Jonathan Payne
