Q: Should I book the Second Line?
A: ABSOLUTELY! It will be the most fun and memorable part of your day, celebrating with all your guests AND the community around you ☂️

What’s a Second Line? This New Orleans tradition comes from African-American community celebrations of important life events like funerals. The parade features a brass band as the first line, then the revelers behind them become the Second Line. Handkerchief waving and dancing in the street is HIGHLY encouraged.

Joy and Sam had their Second Line parade in the streets of downtown Fairhope, Alabama featuring . It was absolutely beautiful to see the Southern coastal community embrace a same-sex couple with joy and dancing 💜

SWIPE ➡️➡️➡️ to see the Before and Afters of our set up for the Hutcheson wedding at Patrick F. Taylor Library!

This venue set-up including setting flower arrangements and flameless candles, placing chairs, arranging the cake table, arranging picture frames and floral decor, steaming tablecloths, doing touch-up sweeping around the venue, and more I’m sure I’m forgetting 😅 it was a multi-hour labor of love to add the perfect details to this beautiful space!

1. & 2. The main dining space in the rotunda - not pictured, the buffet table on the left and the flameless candle feature in the fireplace (will share soon!)

3. & 4. Bar and champagne tower setup

5. & 6. Table featuring wedding photos of the parents and grandparents of the bride and groom, plus basket for cards

7. & 8. Table featuring several cakes from plus a cake pull and special champagne flutes

9. & 10. Stacks area featuring DJ stage setup, dance floor, dining tables, and hiboys

It takes a lot of work and care to transform a wedding space! If you’re looking for Wedding Coordinators to bring your POV to life, we’d love to chat with you in a free, no-pressure Vibe Check meeting! Send us a DM or inquire on our website 💜

What’s in a name? 🌹 For many nearlyweds, especially those who identify as LGBTQ2IA+, deciding what to do about your last names is a big part of wedding planning!

We love that more nearlyweds are choosing a totally new last name with meaning and creating a brand new family identity together. (Though we might be a little biased, because we did that and so did our clients the Chaddlers!)

❓How to decide on changing last names? We think these questions will get your discussion going:

1. Do you WANT to change your last name? Do you share the same opinion on wanting to change?

2. Do you have an emotional attachment to your current last name? Do you have an emotional attachment to the last name you might change to?

3. Do you want to do the legal paperwork to officially change your name?

4. Do you like the position of your last name in the alphabet? (For us, as an S and W, that was a NO)

5. If you decide to choose an entirely new last name, how do you want to choose? Based on first letter, meaning, family connections, a beloved fictional character, a combination, something else?

No matter what you decide, it should be a choice that makes you excited about married life together!

POLL: What do you think about changing your last name after marriage? 🤔
