That’s a wrap on wedding season 2022!

Thank you to all the wonderful couples who hired me to add beauty to their wedding day. I am so grateful that you allow me to do this for a living.

I’d like to also thank all the vendors I worked alongside this year - planners, caterers, photographers, venue staff, and more who help make the magic happen.
I can’t forget the amazing freelancers and friends who worked with me this summer, you are the best!
And duh, the flower farmers and suppliers who provide the magical flowers we use!
Lastly, thank you to my friends and family who are patient with me when I forget to answer texts, listen to my complaints and worries, help out when I need an extra hand, and don’t mind when I pass out on the couch on Saturday before 6pm.

2022 was a big one, and I can’t wait to see what 2023 has in store.
We still have availability for next year, so reach out if you’d like to book our services!

Until then, I’ll be hibernating with Birdie (🐈‍⬛), Draper (🐶) and (🧍🏻‍♂️) ❤️.
