Oh my goodness hello insta fam! 👋🏻
•
It’s been a minute since I’ve been here but hey…2023 came in 🔥 and it’s been quite the whirlwind!
•
If you follow my account you know we’ve been traveling and that I started a new role as a Special Events and Outreach Manager for downtown Dearborn.
•
So life, you could say, has been moving fast in this new year.
•
In 2022 I chatted about how there would be big changes to the studio and while they aren’t fully set yet the mission stays the same:
✨To empower couples with the tools and resources they need to bring their celebration vision to life.✨
•
I am honoring the couples I have booked for this year but am taking a break from any day of services for the remainder of 2023.
The focus shifting into creating digital tools, resources and references to help those navigating the planning process.
•
You can find me here, behind the scenes, drafting and prepping - while also sharing the love the of couples who have helped me get to this point today.
•
•
Keep an eye on the site as updates are coming over these next few weeks. Looking to do this whole event design thing a littttllleee different 😜
•
Cheers to new chapters and always striving to do what I love to - bringing people together. 🥂
•
•
P.S. I’ve love the detail shots from and celebration ❤️

I still don’t think I’ve come down from the high of a great season.
•
Even great seasons come with struggle and let me tell you these last few months took their toll.
•
But… But… when I look back I am super proud of myself for getting here today.
I am super proud of the events I have been a part of and all the special projects in between.
•
We aren’t quite slowing down over here as we jump into retail season to help small businesses prepare for the holidays but hoping to get a few days to clean up and get reorganized.
•
To be totally transparent the studio is making changes as we move past this season and when it’s time to share that I will but for now it’s time to wrap up a very bitter sweet wedding season and enjoy what the rest of 2022 has to offer ❤️

Terracotta - Merlot - Ivory
This grouping of colors has been a huge favorite this year!
•
•
One thing I love about color is that even if you’re using the same hue the vibrancies, chromas, shades, and uses are endless!!!
•
So if you’re in love with a popular palette but want to make it your own….experiment! 🧪
Don’t be turned off because you’ve seen it done by others…
Start messing with your options and I promise you will find a version that is uniquely you!

Welcome new faces!!!! 🤩
•
Hello hello my name is Amanda and I am the face behind and !
•
For those of you new to this page thank you for joining me on this creative journey and I hope you enjoy all the goods I post here and on !!
•
I started weddings in 2014 and my process, style, and offerings have evolved with me ever since!
•
Guess what!
They are about to evolve again! Throughout the last 8 years I have gravitated towards clients who have a vision but need a push in the right direction to execute!
People who know what they love but aren’t sure how to put it together.
People who want to own their creativity and vision but are not sure how.
•
I love to empower those I work with to feel confident in what their dream event looks/ feels like and our plans for 2023 have a strong focus in providing resources to make S**T HAPPEN! 🔥🔥

Finally made my way back home after a long weekend assisting the absolutely amazing at her first ever yoga retreat ⛺️🧘‍♀️❤️ .
Just a few shots from what was a really great trip.
•
She blew everyone away with her efforts in putting this trip together and every choice she made was 🙌
•
When first told me she was thinking about planning a retreat I knew it would be truly something special. Her attention to detail and her passion for creating an environment to give the opportunity for participants to relax, set intentions, connect, and have a fu***ng good time 😉 was obvious.
•
I am so glad I was able to support her in being her right hand and just a very proud friend of hers in general.
•
She had chosen an amazing group of guest teachers - vendors - and a wonderful venue to host us.
•
A vegan - gluten free menu that I think everyone was beyond impressed with from .oftheland , cookies from , fresh juices from , snacks from , a super cute welcome gift including sprays from ,an assortment of activities including yoga, Buti, sound baths, Thai massages, pole workshops, beach time, wine tastings with .s.jess and just the perfect amount of free time all were part of her perfectly laid out plan.
•
•
To be even a small part in supporting this woman owned business of my dear friend was a privilege and I can’t wait to see where this journey continues to take her ❤️
