 What was the most memorable part of your day?  Amy: That would have to be when my dad was getting ready to walk me down the aisle and was talking to me about Nick and how proud of me he was, I was flooded with tears but as soon as I looked up at Nick standing at the altar I felt at peace.   Nick: It’s cliché, but it really was when Amy walked down the aisle. The first time somebody asked me where my wife was caught me off guard too!Any advice for future Brides and Grooms?  Amy: Relax and enjoy the day. Let your family and friends help and don’t feel like you have to do everything yourself.  Nick: Enjoy the little things that you wouldn’t even expect to remember like conversations with family and friends. Don’t worry about the “big moments” everything is smoother when nobody is on edge.Funniest moment of your day?  Amy: Throughout the day it was really funny trying to not let Nick see me. We were getting ready in the same house and there were several times I could hear him talking and I was so worried that he was going to see me, but he didn’t.     Nick: One of my groomsmen decided to show up in his suit hours before any pictures were taken. After talking about changing for quite some time, he finally did, only to hear that it was time for pictures moments after.If you could do it all over again, would you change anything?  Amy: I wouldn’t change a single thing, it was perfect.  Nick: I would have made the song playlist for the reception the day before the wedding instead of two hours before we said our vows.Where did you go on your honeymoon? We went to Gatlinburg, TN.What was your favorite photo moment?  Amy: I loved our first look, even though we neither one had much expression in that exact moment it was a really neat experience.   Nick: I really liked taking pictures by the lake, the sunset was really relaxing.
