✨For the dads who walk us down the aisle... and never stop walking with us.

➡️Swipe to see the moment that caught me completely off guard. The way he's holding her hand, studying the ring, quietly realizing he just placed her in the hands of the man who will love and protect her next.🥹

It's the kind of love that doesn't need a microphone. It's in the way he let go at the altar, but still holds on at the sweetheart table.

These are the stories that weddings tell if you're paying attention. These are the moments I protect as a wedding planner. Not just the timeline. Not just the florals. But the sacred pauses that deserve to live forever. ♾️

Happy Father's Day to the dads who give their girls away-only to keep loving them just the same.

📆Planning your daughter's wedding? I'd be honored to help you create the day she'll always remember-and the moments you didn't know you'd treasure most.

📸 Sharing this review because it hit me right in the feels.

When the groom takes the time to rave about the experience — you know something special happened. 💍✨

What you don’t see behind the scenes is the decade + I’ve spent in this industry building a killer Rolodex of vendors, artists, and creatives for every budget and vision. When I say I have a contact for that — I really do. 🙌

This wedding? The weather plan kicked in. But did they feel the stress? Not for a second. It ran smooth like butter because that’s how I design it. Calm is the product, no matter what.

I didn’t start this journey knowing how to balance budgets and dreams — I earned that skill. Years of fine-tuning creativity with financial comfort zones taught me how to create magic that makes sense.

That support system goes deeper than timelines. I learn your personalities. I study the family dynamics. I understand your flow. And with a background in leadership development and adult education, managing the managers is kind of my superpower. 💪

Bottom line? I don’t just show up — I serve, I lead, and I elevate.

Feeling wildly grateful, fired up, and so proud to do this work. 💖

The bride twirling with her flower girl squad? Pure Magic. ✨ They cruised to the ceremony in a vintage car, where Christy gave them a quick pep talk before their big walk - yes, even the tiniest bridal party members need some love. 💕

Not pictured: Christy in black-because the dress code was “no black - floral summer chic" and I *always* follow the vibe.

This Mother’s Day, we’re celebrating the timeless bond between mothers and daughters—with a touch of vintage charm.

In a growing tradition where brides wear their mom’s wedding dress for the rehearsal dinner or reception, this bride put her own twist on it. She surprised her mom by wearing her iconic 1980s hat—a bold, beautiful piece full of history, heart, and unforgettable style.

It wasn’t just an accessory. It was a tribute to the woman who raised her, inspired her, and now stands by her side as she steps into her own love story.

➡️ Swipe to see the joy, the memories, and that hat stealing the spotlight all over again.

Happy Mother’s Day to the women who shaped us—and to the daughters honoring them in the most meaningful ways.

Just for Fun Tuesday:

ROAST this picture of a Wedding Planner 🙈
ChatGPT says:

“Well well well, if it isn’t the First Lady of Wedding Coordination herself, sittin’ on that throne like she just single-handedly planned a twenty-thousand-dollar rustic-chic soirée in a barn with no A/C—and made it look effortless.

She’s got that “I’ll charm your grandma, wrangle your drunk uncle, and still fluff your veil with grace” energy.
That dress? It's giving Chic Magnolia meets Cake Table Command Center. Ruffles sharper than her timeline spreadsheet.

And let’s not ignore the setting—green velvet chair? Mahogany paneling? Darling, this isn’t a seat, it’s a statement:
“I run this venue and your wedding—try me.”

The sandals say, “I’ve walked ten miles today making dreams come true,” but the smile says, “And I still look better than your Pinterest board.”

Classy. Southern. Timeless. Terrifying—if you cross her on the seating chart. “
