Describe your wedding cake:  Didn’t have one! We went with our
own personal favorites for sweet indulgences; Jarrod’s cinnamon rolls,
and my double chocolate cupcakes. We’ve been to weddings where there is
so much of the dessert left over, so we also provided bakery bags so
everyone could take home some sweets to enjoy the next day.

What advice would you give to someone planning their wedding?
Roll with the punches! Planning a wedding is always going to come with
some bumps in the road. Also, get an amazing coordinator/planner. Our
day wouldn’t have happened without ours, Bliss Event Group. Having
someone there that cares enough to not only help plan your day, but
also pull out every last stop to make it happen is priceless.

Best advice or most memorable comment someone made to you during the wedding celebration. Someone
told me I was the happiest bride they’d seen!  [Editors note from Lara: “I agree with that person!  Your love for Jarrod and your family was so genuine and radiant.”] That really make me feel
great, because that meant everyone could see just how joyous I was.
What’s next for you as a couple? Well,
I’m hoping to go back to grad school starting next year pursuing my
Ph.D. in psychology. Jarrod is also working on finishing up school in
criminal justice. We want to travel, and also spend as much time with
friends and family as possible.

Congratulations Brittany + Jarrod!  We wish you a lifetime of happiness!
