What’s the best answer to, “What are you doing New Year’s Eve"” Getting married, of course! With the help of planner Kathrina Addison and day-of coordinator Event Envy, Emily and Keifer threw a black-tie NYE wedding to ring in the new year with all of their closest family and friends, and the result was truly spectacular.
