What I’m wearing this week as a wedding vendor — We’ve got wedding planning and vendor meets, final wedding meets, and day-of errands we’re running this week. Not to mention KC and it’s humid heat 🥵
@athleta has some of the most flattering and lightweight pieces to keep you profesh and cool all day long. You’ll see so many of their pieces in my rotation, but today’s tee dress is a top 5 fave!
I keep my meet and errand days a little more casual, so sneakers it is! And y’all know me, we’re extending hair wash day so popping on that cap to pull it all together in an elevated way.
My favorite laptop bag + tumbler by @shopsimplemodern keep everything protected and easy to carry as I’m running from space to place. The small size is perfect if I’m taking my tablet, but I love the medium when it’s laptop day. My tumbler is LEAK. PROOF. 🤌🏽 which is a must for me. (remember that time my other st*nly tumbler leaked in my bag and ruined my MacBook? 🫠) And there’s pockets all over this bag…it’s a wedding planner’s dream!
The best part is — throw a blazer and pair of pumps on over this dress and now we’re ready to transition to rehearsal tonight. win/win/win for me 🖤

(Finally!) Coming Soon 🥹 — A brand new way to plan weddings — The Virtual Wedding Planner
I found this missing gap in the industry— couples who understood the need for a wedding planner, but only had the budget to invest in a wedding day-of coordinator. Knowing you needed support, but also knowing not every budget is unlimited nor the same had me saying, “There has to be a better way!”

Imagine having all the information you need, delivered right to your fingertips straight from a pro wedding planner. Coupled with access to all of our favorite tools and a safe space to ask your questions, who knew wedding planning could be such a dream?!
