Real Advice From a Real Bride: Include your Father!

I am very excited to introduce a new segment I will be featuring on my blog called "Real Advice From a Real Bride."  Here, my past brides will share a short anecdote or piece of advice from their special day....something they didn't expect, something they really enjoyed, or anything they would love to pass along to you.  Our first post is from a gorgeous September bride, Lauren Moffat.  I hope you enjoy!

"It's easy to forget to include your dad in all of the getting ready madness.  You get it in your head that the hair/make-up area is just for you, your mom, and your bridesmaids... but your father is still your father, and he wants to spend time with you before the big moment of giving you away!  Someone gave me this tip, so before all the changing went on, I had my dad come into the bridal suite and thanked him not only for the wedding, but for everything he's done for me.  It was a really nice moment, and he really appreciated not being relegated to another area the whole morning.  And don't forget to have your photographer capture it on film.  Even if you're wearing a funny tank-top like I was!" -Lauren Moffat
