Hello everyone! We're excited to announce a call for real couples (vendors don't be shy!) in the DMV area who would like to be part of our fabulous styled shoot on Monday, August 5, 2024! Join us for a day of creativity, elegance, and stunning photography.

📅 Date: Monday, August 5, 2024 (Hours TBD)
📍 Location: Arlington, VA
💐 Partners:
💃 Model Types Needed: Plus Size, In*******al
❗Applications are due no later than tomorrow, Friday, July 26❗

✨ What's a styled shoot? ✨
One day, we, as wedding vendors, get to design and style for a wedding in order to capture new content for our website and social channels. Think of it as a pretend wedding day, and you get to live a day as a model.

This shoot, however, has some more amazing layers to it. You will also be part of an amazing non-profit effort for some new beginnings in the wedding industry, too. The styled shoot is to kick off photos and content for a new non-profit venture called Aisle for All. Where wedding vendors gather at a conference to learn about inclusive weddings, including highlighting weddings for the blind, disabled, and neurodivergent to just name a few.

✨ What's your job as a model? ✨
You play hooky from work and we get to dress you and your partner up as if you were a real couple getting married, get your makeup done, and feel like a model on set! Our photographer will guide you through photos including a mock ceremony, portraits and a wedding reception.

✨ What do I get? ✨
Stunning photos to add to your collection and bragging rights that you were a model for a day.

✨ How to apply? ✨
Are you excited yet? If so, please DM us the word "POSE", and we'll send you the application link. All applications are due by tomorrow, Friday, July 26, 2024 by 7 pm.

We can't wait to create something magical together!

Did you know the type of dinner service you choose for your wedding affects your tablescape design? Yup, sure does! Because you can’t have design elements literally getting in the way as your guests are served. And here is some of the advice I give my couples:​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​💫For family style service: Opt for sleek, low-profile centerpieces to ensure easy passing of dishes. Consider narrower table runners or small votives and candles that leave plenty of space for serving platters and bowls. It's all about balance; you want your tables to look abundant but not cluttered.

💫For cocktail style service: Your tables can afford to be a bit more lavish with the decor since guests will be served standing away from the table. This is your chance to go bold with taller centerpieces or more elaborate tablescapes. Just ensure there's still enough room for guests to place their plates and glasses without the risk of accidents.

💫For plated meal service: Elegance and simplicity work best here. Since plates will be brought directly to guests, ensure there's ample space around each setting for multiple courses and glassware. Consider delicate floral arrangements and candles that don't obstruct views across the table, fostering a warm, intimate atmosphere.

Thinking about all the things now and feel like you need some guidance? I’d love to chat about what you envision for your wedding. Visit our inquire page and reach out. I'd love to chat more.

📰✌️ Double Trouble in the ! 🎉 Turns out, I couldn't be contained to just one article. 😏💥 After being published online and being *one paragraph off* in the print edition (watch our last reel for the full story!) they had no choice but to give me a second round online! 💃🗞️ This time, it's all about how to gracefully call off your wedding.

***Comment NYT and I'll send you the full article for some unconventional advice and a sprinkle of my signature sass! ***

✨The Story Behind the Headline: From Wedding Planner to Friend for Life! 

✨Sometimes life takes unexpected turns, leading us to beautiful connections we never saw coming. Meet Tristan, a client-turned-friend who reminded me that my job isn't just about planning and designing—it's about passion, it's about people, and being there when it matters most. 

🌟When Tristan's world was shaken by a heart-wrenching breakup while I was hired to plan the wedding, he found solace in our client relationship. As we navigated the storm together, our bond grew stronger, and I became more than just a planner—I became a confidant, a shoulder to lean on, and a cheerleader in his corner. 

✨Now, fast forward to today, and I am filled with sheer joy and gratitude as I am proud to say that Tristan hired me a second time. I planned and designed his wedding and witnessed him say "I do" to the love of his life. 🎉 Not only that, but soon I have the utmost honor of meeting their precious newborn daughter. (Once we figure out schedules 🫠)

✨This journey has taught me that my role extends far beyond the logistical details of wedding planning—it's about creating meaningful connections, sharing in both the highs and lows, and being a source of unwavering support during life's twists and turns. I started Dee Kay Events because I wanted to help people. I'm so lucky that I get to do just that.

✨To Tristan, thank you for trusting me with your dreams and allowing me into your life. Your resilience and strength continue to inspire me. May you and Jenny have a lifetime and forever filled with love, laughter, and sweet moments with your beautiful daughter.

Currently in my featured in the era! (Link in bio) Dee Kay Events is quoted for our thoughts on hiring a Wedding Day Content Creator. 

We started to add Wedding Day Content exclusively for clients in 2022. It was a natural progression in this ever changing landscape of social media. (We now offer it as a standalone collection as well!)

I received a text about the feature earlier today from the wonderful that had me in excitement paralysis (is this a real thing? 🤣) where you're so excited you don't know what to do.

Quoted in the New York Times! My inner Croatian from Jersey definitely let a few bad words fly out me' mouth. It may have started with an f and end with a yes. 

Then another text from my planning soul sister . This is where I peed a little. We were both quoted in the same article...again! The Double Dees at it. Watch out world, were coming for ya.

Oh my good lawd. 11 years ago, when Dee Kay Events was born, my goals were not even on the same playing field as this milestone. It's truly unbelievable. It's been an amazing journey of writing this entire year. It was a passion that was dormant for a bit, but now I can't stop.

I am so proud and honored. It's pretty cool to be your favorite elder millennial who has an entire vibe going on, so much so to be in the Style section of NYT. 💅

What is even happening right now. Whatever is, it's amazing, and I am so grateful.

Excuse me as I pop some V***e for the occasion anfinishng rewatching Beef with the hubs. 🥂

I would be remiss not to mention
and , who have been an integral part of Dee Kay Events BTS (behind the scenes) for wedding content. I am grateful for the long hours, putting up with my cinema direction and how long it takes to transfer footage off my phone. 🤣
