That one time you went to Venice, Italy to be a part of your best friend’s wedding🤍

Now is the perfect time to start planning those Valentine or Galentine’s Day parties!💘

Sure, a romantic dinner for two is always an option…but it is MUCH more fun to get a group of couples, friends, family, co-workers, etc. together to celebrate LOVE day!💕

If you need some inspiration, check out this Galentine mixology event from last year!🍸🪩💖

Kendra & Drew🤍

After a private wedding in Costa Rica, Kendra & Drew wanted to celebrate with family and friends right here in Brighton. They wanted something simple, but classy and wanted to incorporate their favorite book, “The Four Loves” by C.S. Lewis.

We decided to go with Brewery Becker as the venue since it has that beautiful old world charm.

Of course I went full-in on the book theme gathering up all the antique books throughout my house (fyi…I am quite the collector of beautiful books), so that we could incorporate them on the tablescapes. Kendra and Drew had thought up the idea to make little table signs that explain the 4 loves (storge, philia, eros, agape) which we intermingled on the tables with pictures of their wedding in Costa Rica.

My favorite details were the antique typewriter on the guest table with their favorite quote from the book and copies of “The Four Loves” for guests to take home.

Overall, a magical evening celebrating this beautiful couple🤍

Always a pleasure working with …especially when we both have the creative freedom to design an unforgettable dining experience for the guests✨

This intimate Spanish dinner party included a delicious 7 course tapas menu paired with 7 perfectly chosen Spanish wines by 🍷Guests dined al fresco on back porch, the most perfect backdrop for my tablescape.

Since there were only 10 guests, I got to bring out ALL the fun vintage plates and glassware. The Spode dinner plate (which was used as a charger for all the small white tapas plates) was the inspiration for the table and paired nicely with my cobalt blue water goblets. Each wine pairing used a different vintage wine glass so that guests could differentiate the wines.

Overall, a beautiful evening with beautiful people🤍

Let’s talk about the Brighton Light House💛

Did you know that you can book their spaces for social private events without being a member? The Light House used to do this themselves in the past, but starting in 2024 we partnered together to make a Light House/Reed & Co package. This combines the Light House’s gorgeous spaces, grounds and amenities with my help of planning, decorating and servicing your event.

To discuss availability and pricing, just send me a message or fill out an inquiry either on my website or the link on the Light House’s website. All potential clients get a free one-hour consultation and tour to discuss your event needs.

Above are some of my favorite pics of the property and events I have been blessed to be a part of✨

Let’s talk about Regina & Henry (trust me, it’s worth the read)♥️

Regina and I met when she contacted me through the Brighton Light House’s website inquiring about renting the venue for a small wedding. When I took them to see the space and the beautiful grounds, they knew immediately they wanted to book.

As we were planning together, I learned that Regina & Henry went to High School with each other. Henry always had a big crush on Regina, even asking her to formal school dances, but Regina was smitten with someone else at the time, so sadly the answer was always “no”.

Fast forward 54 years and Henry finally got the “yes” he was looking for after the two reunited during a class reunion♥️

It was pure joy working with these two crazy kids who were constantly giggling at each other, holding hands and stealing smooches when they thought I wasn’t looking☺️ Regina’s favorite color is blue and her favorite flower is hydrangea, so the decor and floral were an easy choice.

After the beautiful ceremony on the grounds and a group picture (kinda like herding cattle), guests enjoyed a delicious meal catered by Ciao Amici’s while listening to soft 70’s love songs.

Definitely a day I will always remember♥️

A Petals & Prosecco bridal shower is SO dreamy when you host it at 💐🍾

The Collective’s space is so light and airy it makes the perfect canvas for parties up to 40 guests. That’s why when my client, Julie, told me she wanted to do a floral themed bridal shower for her daughter with 30 guests, I knew right where to go.

Guests were greeted with a mimosa bar when they first walked in and could take a pic with the bride-to-be, Jackie, in front of the Collective’s beautiful backdrop/seating area (which is included in the rental of the space)!

They then were treated to a delicious brunch catered by whose food is always to die for!

I also set up a little coffee bar and hydration station with infused water so that guests had plenty of beverage options to choose from.

Lastly, I provided flower bags and ribbon so that each guest could take home a flower arrangement from the guest tables! I love to do this as a shower favor because it saves the client money from having to purchase flowers for a bloom bar AND table decor😉

Congratulations again, Jackie! Can’t wait to see pics of the wedding💕

Loved planning and decorating Kathleen’s baby shower!🍋

When her mother, Linda, reached out to me and said they had booked in Ferndale for the venue, I knew we needed to do an Italian theme. We decided on a rustic southern Italy vibe with obviously a lot of lemons. We kept the color palette yellow, green and white, omitting blue because that gives off a Mediterranean feel and Pop’s space is more moody and industrial. One thing I always tell my clients is to pick decor that is going to compliment your venue, otherwise it can feel forced and a bit awkward.

All the guests enjoyed a delicious brunch, took home the sweetest decorated sugar cookies made by McKenna and before they left, got to take a pic with the mom-to-be in front of one of Rosie’s .eventco beautiful balloon creations!

Congrats again, Kathleen! Cannot wait to see pics of baby Cooper💛

Hi there! Guess it has been a while since I have posted on FB. Been trying to get better about posting on Instagram and in the process have been accidentally neglecting this account. I’m sure there is a way to connect the accounts, but haven’t tried figuring that out yet🤷‍♀️

Reed & Co has had a busy season! I will catch you all up over the next couple weeks✨

Wanted to give a shoutout to Harper Photography for encouraging me to step in front of her lens during a branding shoot we worked together on for her new business the Collective Howell 📸 Post coming soon!
