Planning long-distance proved to be even more challenging when their wedding planner fell through a month before the wedding. We stayed very calm and acted quickly to find a replacement planner who was wonderful and redid the entire event, Leslie says. With a positive outlook and plenty of hard work, the pair managed to pull off a spectacular celebration on Captiva Island.
