Throwback Thursday still a thing?! Well I am throwing it back to last summer’s wedding with this gorgeous hanging installation over the dance floor.

Just absolutely a stunning statement, that is all. Florals are worth every penny, in my honest opinion. 🌿🌸💐🌾

In honor of our anniversary, here are some of my fave little details from our big day that I continue to gush over every day! 🪴🤍✨

Wide open sail tent with spacious dance floor, homegrown plant centerpieces, wooden guestbook slab, customized sneakers, engagement photos displayed as table , personalized wax seal, beer growlers and my ultimate favorite— our custom wedding logo used thoughtfully throughout the entire event.

Personal touches that represent the couples every day life & that showcase their unique love story are always my favorite aspect of event planning. What are your faves??

XOXO

Well that’s a wrap for the 2024 wedding season! 🤍💍🥂✨ I feel SO lucky to be able to do what I love every single day and to be able to work with so many amazing couples venues & different vendors. This year was truly one for the books yet unique welcoming my daughter in the middle of a busy wedding season but I wouldn’t have it any other way.

I will (obviously) continue to share my favorite moments from this past year as I continue to plan with my couples for next year. Here’s to 2025!

Also, huge shoutout to my “Hoppy Husband” for always being by my side giving me a helping hand & now bringing our baby girl along for the wedding weekend rides. You are the real MVP!

XOXO
📸: THANK YOU for taking these behind the scene shots 🙌🏼

HALLE + MATT || July 27th, 2024 💛🥂✨

The most magical, romantic & love filled summer mountain wedding weekend.

Planning with these two and their families was such a dream and I couldn’t be more thankful to know them & to have them trust me with their big day.

I could go on and on about the sweet Matt & Halle but I will always remember how, through everything, they put themselves & their love first. Every decision, every detail and every moment was made with pure intention. We made sure to stay true to their story & lifestyle to ensure the weekend felt like a natural celebration.

Oh & alsoooo, the last song was “Love Story” by TSwift and it was the most epic dance party circle! As a Swiftie myself, it was just such a whoelsome fun moment to witness. Couldn’t love you two more! 🤍

XOXO

This romantic botanical inspired design of stationery was also so seamlessly executed throughout this entire wedding from the es**rt cards, menu inserts, table numbers and the most precious vow books.

It’s Floral Friday!! 🤍🌼✨ The dreamiest of bridal bouquets & floral color palettes. It’s elegant. It’s whimsical. It’s romantic. It’s all just perfect.

I will never ever get sick of sharing Nora’s work, she is absolutely brilliant. I am obsessing over these pale pink Astilbe bridesmaids bouquets, such a beautiful simple yet stunning touch— my new favorite trend.

ANNIE + GRIFFIN || June 28th, 2024 💙🏔️✨

What a loving and heartfelt celebration this was, at one of my fave venues. You could feel the love in the air throughout the entire day. From the picture perfect mountains to the romantic blue touches to the look on these faces— we are STOWE IN LOVE!

Despite the massive raindrops as I sent the party down the aisle and the torrential downpour during the reception, the rain seemed to truly lighten up during the big moments which felt sooo special and so surreal.

Also, it is so bittersweet to look back at this wedding when I was about 35 weeks pregnant running around doing all the things! Beyond proud of myself haha

The 21st night of September 🤍✨

Fun fact—Today is the most popular wedding date of 2024! 🎉

5 years ago today, my sister & her husband tied the knot at the most picturesque mountain venue and one that has remained so close to our hearts. AND you best believe we sang this song at the top of our lungs on the dance floor. Happy anniversary love birds!

RYLEE & SANDERS || July 6th, 2024

You know when you meet someone & you instantly feel like you’ve known each other your entire life?? That is EXACTLY what meeting and planning with Rylee was like. Besides her being my most organized bride with the clearest wedding vision, she has one of the purest hearts and realest personalities. Sanders, you are one lucky man but I know you already know that!

Your love is so true. Being apart of your big day is something I will never forget. From your intimate first look, the colorful floral, the photo wall of memories to your private last dance; it was just perfection. LOVE YOU MEAN IT! 🪩🩷🌸✨

Celebrating one year of marriage with a little one on the way, I am just so happy for these two! 🩵🌸🤍 Crazy enough, I ran into them at a concert in Boston recently and it brought me back to this very day. I couldn’t be more thankful to keep in touch with my couples over the years and watch their lives grow.

In the planning process, whether it’s just for a few months or over a year or two, my experience and relationship with every couple is extremely different from one another. It makes things interesting but no matter what it is always a special bond. There is so much trust, loyalty & support working together to make their happily ever after a reality. I am so lucky I get to surround myself with this much love. 🤍

XOXO
