It’s been a while since I’ve shared a proper introduction! I’m Emily, the creative mind behind Something Borrowed, a custom signage and stationery company that brings wedding dreams to life through thoughtful, personalized details.
Beyond my business, I’m passionate about fostering community. I’ve been working hard to create spaces where creative business owners can connect, support each other, and cheer each other on, because this industry is better when we lift each other up.
On the more personal side? I’m a mom to two incredible kids and two pups: Maverick, an old-soul shepherd mix puppy, and Tessa, my wild chocolate lab. I’m also a massive Taylor Swift fan (Swiftie for life 🖤), love Diet Coke, and live for gatherings with friends, whether it’s going out for apps and drinks or a full-blown party (details are my love language, after all).
My husband Derek has been working with me full time for three years and is the muscle (plus a whole lot labor) behind everything you see. We’ve been together for thirteen years and he was the first person to believe in what SB could be.
Fun facts:
💐 I grew up in a flower shop.
🚴♀️ I’ve never learned to ride a bike.
💪 I’m on a massive health journey and this close to losing 100 pounds—proof that small milestones add up to big wins!
⛵️ Newport isn’t just where most of our weddings are, it’s our favorite place on earth.
🕒 I’m a last-minute, type-B, undiagnosed ADHD kind of person (and somehow it works).
At the heart of everything I do, I believe in creating the life you want, with joy and intentionality, one step at a time. Whether I’m designing the perfect wedding details or chasing big dreams, that mindset keeps me going.
If we haven’t met yet, drop a comment and let me know if we have anything in common, I’d love to connect with you here! 🤍
