I may be biased but my favorite something Borrowed and Blue ... is ME!
💙
I absolutely LOVE working from referrals of my couples. I worked with Julia in 2022, Kate this past May and because of Kate's wedding, I connected with a future December 2024 bride who also knows Kate!

It's such a special feeling when a future client either experiences my work in real time, or they're told such good feedback that it's an extra level of security and reassurance to work with me.

I've had the honor of being "passed down" in multiple friend groups, and I will never get enough seeing familiar faces as wedding guests! It truly is my favorite connection to make.

When you know, you know! 💞

These two sweethearts met in high school, so they made it a point to go back to Robinson on their wedding day to take photo. Talk about nostalgia!

Luckily when having a wedding in the City, there's no shortage of cute streets to stroll down for photos!

's library is one of my favorite backdrops for photos.

Between it's olive walls, fun pop of wallpaper, thoughtful decor and the lighting from the large windows down to the candles in the fireplace - There's no place more cozy 🔥

I love when Chelle and Evan brought up their mothers during their wedding ceremony.

It was such a beautiful moment to shine a light on the women who raised them, highlighting the love they now all get to share together.

✨Vulnerable Post ✨ I realized that up until this weeks wedding recap that I hadn’t posted for all of July.
It makes sense because my world stopped on June 28 with the incredibly unexpected and traumatic loss of my dog, Tilly.

She was the first pet I ever had as an adult. She was a result of the pandemic which forced me to slow down and I realized that without work, I really had nothing to do. I had no hobbies, couldn’t safely see friends. So I decided to get a friend that I could fill my days with. But I never could’ve expected just how many voids she filled for me, and how much she would mean to me in the cruelly 4 short years I had her.

Tilly became my connector. She was really the only thing I could talk about with people, other than work - and not many people get the work aspect. But everyone understands a dog.

She softened me in every way. If you’ve ever worked with me, you get that I’m pretty blunt and straight forward. No fluffy details, just no-nonsense, always in a rush, straight to the root kind of gal.

But having Tilly allowed me to slow down, to prioritize boundaries and self-care (more so- her care 😂) and have something else to heavily invest in. Any time I was bored, stressed or even sad - I would always default in throwing myself into work, to dissociate mainly. But she changed it all. Every bored day, was a chance to have a new adventure with her. Every stressed day would be lightened by her silliness and unintentional humor. And every sad day would be made better with endless cuddles.

To say I’m at a loss would be an understatement. I’ve been defaulting to what I know - work and detachment to make it through. But it’s been hard. In all the non-distracted moments, it still feels like a freight train plowing through, opening all the voids once again. She was the love of my life.

For the first time ever, Fall season - I’m so ready for you.

I loved that instead of having bridesmaids, Kate had her best girls dress as her Something Blue!

This was great for many reasons!
💙 Everyone can have a dress that's in their own style and makes them feel good, plus they'll likely wear it again! The range of blue hues and patterns was awesome!
💙 It designated the girls as special but didn't come with the typical "bridesmaids" duties of posing for photos all day
💙 She still had them all "get ready" with her and everyone was DIY hair & make up.

There's been an uptick in couples choosing to use 's Portico for their ceremony.

But there's always a big question: How do we decorate it?

The space doesn't need an arch and stair arrangements get tricky as the wedding party is coming up and down them.

The perfect answer? This greenery vines by .

It was so nice, we used it twice! (for my wedding the next day that also chose Portico!)

PSA: If your venue reaches out to you to schedule your final walk through before I do, don’t schedule it without first looping me in.

I am REQUIRED to be there. I need to speak to the big players ( Venue, Caterer, YOU- the client) to make sure we are all on the same page with all of the details. Breaking up these meetings can cause miscommunications, confusion and missed details.

As I always say - Help me, Help you. If you get there before I do, set everyone up for success by creating the email chain with those VIPs so we can agree on a date and time and all actively participate. This is your big final step of planning, let’s do it right!

Today is my 4 year anniversary with !

What started as a regular tour as a coordinator just in hopes of networking in December 2019 turned into a job offer in June 2020. Andrea had remembered our conversation that far back ( I can't even remember what I ate yesterday) and when a position opened, she reached out to me.

That basically encompasses Andrea at . She cares deeply about connections with vendors, couples, clients and with her staff. I always tell potential clients during tours that even though SB is a gorgeous venue with a lot to offer, a big win in the Sweeney column is Andrea herself. She goes above and beyond and will be by far your most responsive vendor. And that goes for being Worlds Best Boss too 🏆️

She supports her team, believes them, trusts them and really takes our ideas to heart and implements most of them (Thank you, new vomit clause! I petitioned hard for that one 🤮🤣)

Forever proud to work for Sweeney Barn - Here's to another 4 💥 (or maybe I can retire at 40??? who knows)

Sarah & Jim

What a unique venue to get married at, I had no idea it existed until Sarah & Jim hired me for their big day. They originally had wedding plans to be at a country club, but after covid they were able to re-evaluate what felt truly like THEM.

So a fun, family-friendly, outdoor venue like Glen Echo Park fit the bill for these lovebirds and their guests!

Some highlights:
👗Sarah’s lace dress was navy! And it matched Jim’s suit
⏳They had emotional vows and a sand pouring ceremony with their kids making a blended family become one!
🎠 Guests were treated to a carousel ride and we got such fun photos on board too!
🥓 Brunch time-frame and food! More of these weddings pleeease

Boy do I love a sneak peak!! 👀

Courtney & Michael were picture perfect on Friday for their wedding at Airlie! We faced some uncertain skies but luckily only a light drizzle came down 🌦️ We still had the most perfect day!

This is also the first time one of my couples utilized the waterfall and I love it! They chose to do their private vows there and I've seen a big uptick in this trend! I think having that intimate moment just amplifies a first look even more!

This sweet couple deserves the sweetest life together and I can't wait to see where it takes them 💕
