As we bring this first month of the year to a close, we would be remissed if we didn’t take the time to reflect on some of the wonderful events that we had the honor of being a part of ! It was during these times; through the laughter as well as the tears of joy that we knew what we were put on this earth for! We would like to share these special moments throughout a series of posts entitled Looking Back!
We will start with Deauna & Zachary! While Deauna worked and lived in Austin, we were planning her fabulous wedding to take place in Dallas, Texas which would eventually be home to her and future hubby Zachary. Their stunning wedding was set against the breathtaking backdrop of the 3-acre estate known as Mediterranean Villas.

We caught up with Deauna & Zachary, and here is what they had to say…
1.) What was your favorite part of the planning process?
Our meetings with Kandi. We always had such a good time, we laughed, brainstormed ideas, and just shared our vision. It was exciting to meet and watch our vision come to fruition.
2. What is your favorite thing about being married?
The feeling of completion.
3. What advice you would give to a bride-to-be about planning their wedding?
I would tell her that it is THEIR day, so do what THEY want, everyone doesn’t have to understand or like the choices that they make for their wedding. With every decision to ask herself- “When we look back at these pictures a year form now will we regret having done this the way Mom wanted rather than the way we wanted?” We have looked at our album and video several times and can say that we wouldn’t change a single thing.
4.) If you had to start the planning process all over again, would you do anything different? Why or why not?
Yes. I would have planned to be prepared to do things without the assistance of my bridal party. Everyone wants to be apart of your wedding but often times don’t want to invest the time or money needed to bring your dreams to fruition. I would have put aside some extra cash and put aside a lot of emotion.
We wish Deauna & Zachary many years of wedded bliss, love and happiness!
Smooches!
