The most important choice when getting married is of course the person you marry. The second most important choice you make is the wedding planner. Muriel Saldalamacchia is so much more than a wedding planner. She was our guide and muse, championing our cause with vendors (all wonderful) and keeping us focused on the many decisions we had to make. Muriel is a warm, caring and kind person with a serious commitment to joy and beauty. Those qualities made what is otherwise a trying and difficult time an incredible ride!
