Ten weddings, published in full.
What "featured" means here. Each of these ten weddings is published with full photographer credit, the planning team named, the floral designer credited, the real budget range stated, the real guest count and the real timeline. We do not publish stylized shoots, we do not publish anonymized "anytown couple" galleries, and we do not publish photos without the couple's signed permission.
Some of these were intimate — forty in the conservatory in February. Some were full estate — one hundred and ninety-five on the parterre in October. None are aspirational. All are documentary. The point is not perfection. The point is completeness.
Couples sometimes ask us why we publish budgets. The honest answer is that budgets are the single most useful piece of information we can give someone planning a wedding, and most venues hide them. We do not.
