It’s always nice when you meet someone for the first time and you instantly feel like old friends; that’s the way it was for us at Victoria and John’s Castle Hill wedding. Ironically, unlike most of our clients who are from out of state, V & J live in the next town over from Snap headquarters. Despite our close proximity, we were never able to meet in person due to Victoria being a super awesome very busy veterinarian. Imagine our happiness when we met these two funny, warm, welcoming people and their Jack Russell pup! We had hit the Jack-pot… our ideal clients! Victoria and John are fun loving, up for adventure and  quirky and interesting. They also have fantastic taste and put together a beautiful wedding with awesome details. V & J, don’t be strangers – neighbors!  If you get a free moment from caring for our four legged friends- swing in to Snap HQ for a coffee {if playing hooky from work you could even wear your disguise!}
