Favorite part of the ceremony: Watching the groom as he sees his bride for the first time. It’s the exact moment that you can see how much he loves her.
Favorite part of the reception: When the couples sees the décor before the rest of the reception guests. I’m always so nervous before we reveal whatever element of surprise we’ve come up with for the couple, but our instincts haven’t failed us yet!
Sam loves to: buy shoes, dance, travel, shop at Banana Republic, watch football (especially the Dallas Cowboys) and of course…plan weddings and events!

Samantha has coined the term “The BBS Way” which is defined as her team of wedding consultant’s commitment to being:
The professional consultants who work at the company have to meet strict requirements prior to working with clients. These include, but are not limited to, becoming a certified consultant through the Association of Bridal Consultants and working weddings with Sam to learn the BBS Way.
