Happy Valentine’s Day from the EN girls! ❤️✨

Perfect timing, right? Today isn’t just about love—it’s about new beginnings, bold transformations, and stepping fully into who we are meant to be. Consider this our Valentine’s gift to ourselves, our team, and to YOU—our incredible clients, supporters, and community 💕

Introducing Envive [en-veev]—a name that isn’t just a title, but a declaration:

🌿✨ To Live and Craft Vibrantly — Rooted in the French “vive,” Envive is about longevity, success, and bringing a fresh, elevated energy to every event we touch.

🌿✨To Rebirth, Renew, and Evolve — Blending “EN” from Elle Nicole Events with “vive,” Envive signifies evolution and renewal. This marks a fresh chapter of growth, sophistication, and intentional transformation—honoring our foundation while stepping boldly into what’s next.

🌿✨To Celebrate with Elegance and Energy — We don’t just plan events; we curate moments that feel as seamless as they are stunning. Every detail. Every emotion. Every experience—crafted with intentionality and excellence.

We’ve spent the last year in quiet evolution, fine-tuning what truly matters, and now? We’re back, stronger AND better than ever, and ready to create magic.

Same legacy. Same passion.
New Name + New Brand+ New Site thanks to our good friend = New ENERGY. Let’s Go Envive. 💫

✨ REBIRTH. ELEGANCE. TRANSFORMATION. = “Better days comin’ for sure!✨

Scrolling through our IG, it’s hard to believe we haven’t posted in a year. But trust us, we’ve been working—reflecting, evolving, and refining every part of what Elle Nicole Events represents.

📍 Last summer, right before stepping into Year 11 of business, we consciously decided to lean into what organically came to us. Instead of chasing, we chose to listen—to our work, impact, and future. What started as a shift in business became a personal journey of entrepreneurship, leadership, teamwork, family, friendship, and purpose.

💫 When Elle Nicole Events launched in 2012, we were a group of mid-to-late 20-somethings building something new. Now, we stand at the door of the mid-30s and early 40s, honoring the beauty of growth, change, and legacy.

And what better way to return than by celebrating our half-birthday (is that still a thing? 😂) and reflecting on the power of 11.

✨The number 11 is a master number, full of deep significance:
✨ A symbol of spiritual awareness, intuition, and transformation
✨A sign to trust your instincts & follow your heart
✨A marker of higher purpose, career growth & new opportunities
✨A harbinger of major success & expansion

We receive all of that. 🙌🏾

Here’s to what’s next. Here’s to new levels. Here’s to rebirth. Here’s to elegance. Here’s to transformation 🌿

How do you feel about the 20 picture carousel IG feature?

Is this thing on? 🎤 Oh, don’t mind us... we’re just test-driving Instagram’s latest feature, allowing us to share not one, not two, but a whopping 20 pictures at once! 📸The baddest and the flyest! 🎉

While we’re having some fun with tech, we were thinking about the power of this feature. Is this another feature that will come and go? Or is this a feature that opens up a whole new world of storytelling opportunities? It seems that from showcasing the intricate details of event designs to capturing those candid moments, the possibilities are endless! 💍✨

It also means that lovely couples who are planning their special day and using Instagram to vet their vendors, get an even more immersive look into the magic of wedding planning and design. Fashion, swoon-worthy decor, and all the behind-the-scenes action you didn’t know you needed. 💃🕺

✨🌹 We don’t always get to play with colors like Red AND Black, BUT WHEN WE DO? THIS kind of MAGIC happens✨🌹 Our Katanie has a favorite saying: “GONE WITH THE WIND FABOLOUS”, so naturally, her wedding design aspirations were sky-high. Our wedding design process is intricate beginning with selecting verbiage that adds depth and meaning to every expected detail. Each design client gets a curated design deck that combines that verbiage with imagery and direction for their wedding design.

wrote the following when she began to envision Katanie + Ben’s big day:

Soft, romantic, lush florals paired with the warm glow of candlelight set the stage, while prominent colors of red, white, and black, with accents of champagne, gold, and soft pink, bring a modern glam design with vintage touches to life. The sweetheart area, adorned with a stunning red rose backdrop and large candelabras, exudes pure romance. The rare sight of black taper candles, adding an extra touch of sophistication. The centerpiece of the reception, the estate table, stands as a testament to luxury and elegance and offers seating for 21, creating an intimate and memorable dining experience. 🌹✨

Executing those visionary words were one of our favorite moments of 2023! To all the couples planning 2024 & 2025 weddings, desiring a planning process that is as focused on designed details as it is logistics, reach out to us, and let’s craft the luxury wedding of your dreams together💍✨

Happy Tuesday!

Can you believe we're already nearing the end of the first month of the year? 📆

Have you set your intentions for 2024? If not, consider this your gentle reminder to do so!

Let me share mine with you first:

Often, we allow various factors, whether they're external or even our own mindset, to steal our joy, which can impact our passion.

🌟 Last year, my main focus was on decluttering my life so I could commit more intentionally to the things that truly matter.

This year, as I hone in on my level of commitment, I'm starting by asking myself, "Why am I committed to said task? And how does said task bring me joy?" Once I have a clear answer, I'm guarding that commitment fiercely, making sure nothing or no one can take away the joy it brings me. 💪🏾

Now, I'd love to hear from you! 🗣️

In the comments, share what intentions you've set for this year. Let's inspire and support each other in making 2024 the best it can be! 💫🙌🏾

Reflecting on Amee and KeeKee’s and their 5-year anniversary has us thinking about the difference 5 years makes! Their wedding kicked off our most-calendar-filled event year to date…we worked HARD in 2019 and created so many unforgettable experiences…and then the year 2020 hit - and we all know how the rest of the story went…

…yet, here we are in 2024, still standing!

A lighter calendar, yes, but one filled with the refinement that comes from a conscious choice to evolve.

We've immersed ourselves in enhancing the client experience, enhancing systems, and elevating every step of the Elle Nicole journey. As a result, we've become better planners and designers.

Change is inevitable, but refinement is a conscious commitment to elevate—honing in on details, simplifying processes, and hearing our purpose amidst the noise. Refinement, in the spirit of sophistication and reinvention, is our word for the year-

🌕 It’s a Celebration because we are over the moon with excitement! Our stunning bride, Dana, has been featured on .

While our couples and their weddings have been featured many times over the last ten years, this is a momentous occasion for us, marking our first feature on the prestigious Brides.Com.

Thank you to for crafting an impactful piece for and .

This feature, titled "10 Gorgeous Wedding Hairstyles for Brides With Locs," showcases Dana's enchanting wedding look, where her locs took center stage.

Embracing your natural hair on your wedding day is a powerful statement, and Dana's style was nothing short of iconic. Her gathered tresses, featuring a beaded accessory, exuded elegance and charm.

💫 One of the things we love most about our clients is that they look to set trends and make a lasting impact with their wedding imagery.

Here’s a tip for our prospective Luxury Brides-To-Be:
Your wedding reflects your personal style and love story, and your natural beauty deserves the spotlight.

The options for brides with locs are limitless, and Dana's feature is a testament to that. You can have a chic updo, a high ponytail, or wear your locs down—there are no boundaries to your bridal style.

Do your research, consider your veil and comfort, and don't forget to do a trial run to ensure perfection. Keep your locs hydrated and healthy with the right products, and you'll shine on your big day.

Thank you for sharing in our joy, and here's to more breathtaking features and incredible weddings ahead! 🥂💍✨

🌟 : Fall is in full effect…but Ally and Deontay’s engagement shoot gives us all the spring and summer feels!

Meet Ally + Deontay: Love knows no bounds, and neither does our dedication to creating the perfect wedding experience for this incredible couple!

Deontay, a alum from Detroit, and Ally, a grad from Long Island, combine the magic of two vibrant worlds...

With strong ties to the bustling NYC, DMV, and Philly areas our mission was clear: find a wedding venue that would be the epitome of WOW and be a central location for their family and friends group to celebrate…and most importantly, turn up!

But here's the twist in their love story - these two have a world of responsibilities on their shoulders. Ally is on her journey through an Anesthesiology Residency at , and it's no small feat. 🌡💼 and Deontay is a busy Sports Tech Professional.

So, they knew that a luxury wedding wasn't about rushing; it was about ensuring every detail was just right, even if that meant 830 p.m. wedding planning meetings while Ally gets her beauty rest!

Can you believe we're almost six months away from their grand wedding in New Jersey? 💒✨

The countdown has begun, and we can't wait to bring their dream day to life in the heart of New Jersey! Cheers to love, dedication, and the magic of 2024 weddings! 🥂💍
