    1. Can any wedding planner weigh in on this thinking? No professional photographers.
    2. Pleasantly surprised by my LightInTheBox wedding dress experience! (if you’re on a tight budget)
    3. Burnt out, directing a multi-cultural wedding alone from abroad (LDR), and ready to cancel everything. Need advice from anyone who’s been here.
