As the bride and groom, we didn’t have any experience with this. Jamie helped us think through everything from before to after the ceremony. Because of COVID, we had to set up a live stream for our family and friends who couldn’t attend. We also had to make our ceremony a bit different from a traditional one so our virtual guests could have the best experience. Jaime accommodated all our requests. On our ceremony day, Jamie arrived 30 minutes before the time we told her so she could help us reserve the spot we like in Prospect Park. We really appreciate that.
