When I went to pick up items from Bailey she showed me an extra special piece for their day. She pulls out the figures laughing and explaining how much Trent loves cows. On their cake table were two cows dressed as bride and groom complete with fencing and grass bails. SO cute and personal to those two! You know you’re a midwest bride if…:)

Typically all my clients are super organized and Bailey did not stray from that norm. Everything went so smoothly and working with The Venue CU team made it that much better too. They are really on top of it at The Venue CU and truly strive for the couple’s day to go off without a hitch. Love partnering with them!

Luckily, Bailey and Trent were able to have their big day pretty much just as they had planned. There were slight changes due to COVID, but they kept their original date! Maybe we are turning a corner this year!!
