Houston Wedding Photographer – Kelly Urban Photography

If you stumbled upon the time-machine (and actually knew how to use it with out torching your existence) would you make any changes to your wedding? What would you do different?

For Andy and me, we pretty much went in a inexpensive rout (because I am cheap). We loved our cake (made by a friend with a cake business) and venue (my parents home). We loved the theme –Halloween.

If we could have a mulligan, we would:

1. We would have splurged on a professional wedding photographer. This is a big one for me and my family. My mom even has mentioned a time or two that she wished she had hired a wedding photographer. I loved my photographer, he was my teacher and mentor in college, but he is not a wedding photographer. He is a photojournalist. It would have been nice to have someone there who was a wedding pro. Someone who had done plenty of weddings and knew what to expect and where to be instinctively. Also, I would have liked my friend to just enjoy the wedding instead of work.

2. I would have RENTED my wedding dress from rent-the-runway or something. Gotten a pretty dress that was maybe a little cheaper then send it back. My dress is currently hanging in my closet taking up space. I haven’t opened it in years. Hopefully moths haven’t gotten into it. Maybe one day I’ll donate it to someone in need.

3. We would have picked a different florist. Same flowers, just someone else delivering them. Maybe we would’ve even picked them up our self from the Houston flower district.

Are you getting married soon? Was this helpful? Is there anything in particular you are interested in asking couples who’ve been there-done that?
