How Cancellations Are Hurting, But There Is Light In All Of This.

Today I was supposed to be all set up and ready to meet and greet at the Wedding Expo in Dayton. I was so excited for this for a few reasons. Couples looking for their vendors still for their big day.

So lets scoot back a few months, back to the beginning of 2020. I received an email regarding the wedding expo with an opportunity to participate. I skimmed it and moved along. I wasn’t particularly interested because in 2019 I was signed up to do a small wedding show. I was all set and ready to go, and they canceled last moment due to lack of participation. So needless to say when this bigger show was coming up, I wasn’t really excited. Frankly I was nervous!

But as the weeks go by I received a couple more emails and soon phone calls. So, there I was finding myself answering a call to see what they had to offer. The first thing that was stated to me, “We’ve come across your website and was stunned. Your work is beautiful.” Well, I was hooked after that and suckered in to say the least!

So with planning underway, I contacted my local vendors and planned out a beautiful welcoming set up, printed off flyers and wedding guide magazines, updated my business cards and so much more! I invested over thousands of dollars into this wedding expo. I wanted to give my future couples helpful material, sweet little gifts and a day of smiles. I wanted to meet the local vendors set up around me.

As weeks grew closer, days away- our nation, OUR WORLD starts to undergo a crisis. I soon started to realize that this might not happen.

I started to panic. I started to feel overwhelmed with thoughts.”

As we got closer to the date, I had clients reaching out to reschedule session and even weddings. My heart dropped. I felt horrible this is was happening. I couldn’t even image those couples who have waited months and years to for their big day- for it to just be postponed or simply canceled.


Fast forwarding to today. We are going into #stayhome lock down for two weeks. All my sessions for the remainder of March and beginning of April have been rescheduled. This has been a tremendous eye opener and has affected my business 100%. I feel for those small businesses that are forced to shut down during this time with absolutely NO income coming in.

Because of all that is going on, I wanted to give a special offer to those brides who are looking for a photographer or having to find a new one due to travel bands. I had planned to offer all couples 20% off when booked that day. With all that is going on, I want to extend this deal till the first of June 2020 this is to all couples.*

I have a ton of beautiful wedding guides ready to go for you when you book. This will be included in your welcoming gift! Look how cute these are!
