You are Allowed To Take A Break

Hey Y'all,

Planning anything is a lot of pressure, and can cause overwhelm. Planning a wedding is even more so because you want everything to be perfect.

Hear me out though....

Just like at work when a particular project is stressing you out and you take a break to refresh and recharge your mind, the same is needed for wedding planning. Your partner would appreciate it very much if you decided that for the next few days, it will be a .

Watch a movie, go out for dinner, take a walk. Do something fun that doesn't involve planning, and love on that beautiful person that you are with.

"Why don't some venues tell you that outside catering is not allowed before you book?"

Hey y'all!

It really sucks when you love the venue because it has all of the right ambiance and stations that can you know will be just perfect for your photos so you book it..... only to find out that the caterer that you had an eye on is NOT allowed 😔.

Did you know that you can ask custom questions to suit your needs for your wedding day before leaving?

We provide our clients with a few detailed questions to ask on their venue inspections based on their wedding day priorities.. like in this case of the outside catering.

It is not that venues are hiding anything. They do have their preferred vendors or in-house catering whom they've worked with in the past, and are guaranteed to provide a level of service that they feel confident in.

It is really easy to be carried away by the beauty and feel of a venue...
So if outside catering is important to you, this definitely is a question to ask.

I'd love to assist you with your planning needs including venue research - click the link in the comments to schedule your free 15 min consult.

If you just would like to receive the questions to ask...shoot me a DM.

Let's Talk Wedding Trends 2023

One of the HOTTEST trends for this year { 2️⃣ 0️⃣ 2️⃣ 3️⃣ } is none other than PEARLS!

Pearls can upgrade any outfit. It is a classic, timeless element that creates a statement.

Here are some of the ways pearls have become feature pieces in weddings:

Classic - jewelry (necklace, earrings, bracelets)
Attire - custom beading on dresses, hats, shoes
Decoration - the decor for cakes, or floral arrangements
Accessories - headbands, veils, belts

There are so many more ways that they can be utilized. If bedazzled is your thing, pearls are definitely one way you can dazzle and jazz up your attire.

Share this with your friends that LOVE pearls!

A beautiful sunset is just the icing for a beautiful couple.

I’ve gushed about this event. About the process and the vendors, and of details and qualities that were imperative to making this event the success that it was.

Yet, this event would not have been possible if ChaNel had not searched Wedding Wire and scheduled a call with me. She said that she loved that our company involved a husband and wife team, as one of the reasons that drew her to us. As we got to know each other throughout the process, we moved from the regular client to vendor relationship. She and Derrick became more like friends.

We are so honored to have been able to create this day for them, to make sure that they equally get what they dream their day could be. ChaNel & Derrick we thank you very much for choosing us and the group of vendors that came together to make your day special.

There are always two stories being told, one by you the viewer, and the other by the photographer.

It is always so awesome to see how perspective changes when you’re living in the moment, and by contrast, someone’s else’s portrayal (your photographer) of you living your moment - joy, happiness, animation that is captured.

Our final vendor spotlight for ChaNel & Derrick is none other than Ying Butler of Ying’s Artistic Vision. She just has a way of capturing awesome candid shots, as well as a calm demeanor that naturally puts you at ease. I’ve used her for personal photos myself, which was how we actually met. When it was time for this wedding, I immediately shared Ying’s info with ChaNel. After sharing her portfolio with ChaNel, I loved the outcome because this was a leap of faith. ChaNel trusted my referral and trusted Ying to capture their day.

Naturally, As soon as Ying arrived she put everyone at ease and just allowed them to express themselves, be free and fluid. As she was already prepared with a shot list complete with the important names of people that were imperative for family photos, as well as groupings, the photography session was a breeze.

I cannot wait to share her gorgeous work with you because the sneak peeks are absolutely AAH -MAZ-ING!

If "HEY DJ YOU'RE PLAYING MY SONG" was a person.

So listen, I already alluded to you that a grand time was had at the wedding right?

Shout out to Jay of Jemstone Productions. This guy is just amazing. When I reached out to him to assist with ChaNel & Derrick's wedding, we had only just met at Wedding MBA in November. His relaxed and composed vibe created an instant connection that I felt would be awesome for this event.

So after we chatted about the possibility of doing the wedding....

Y'all.

🛑He offered an opportunity for her to experience him live in action before, she booked.🛑

Needless to say, they hit it off immediately. They chatted for hours, and of course, she booked him for the wedding. She loved most of all how he had the crowd moving, and how, even people who may not listen to that type of music were having fun.

So cut to the wedding. He was extremely thorough.
He wanted to make sure that he had the right songs that ChaNel and Derrick would like, and suggested the best song for their entrance that would create excitement in her guests.

The most beautiful part of this is that ChaNel and Derrick are from Pensylvannia and Missouri, and as both the babies of their families, grew up on Motown and Midwest Swing music. Jay's response to this info was "yes! They love real music!". And the rest, as they say, was history.

Together we coordinated the perfect playlist:

- from the parents walking into an Instrumental of 🎵Aint Nothing Like the Real Thing🎵

- to ChaNel & Derrick's recessional song of 🎵Aint No Stopping Us Now🎵,

It was an awesome blend of old school with current Motown vibes.

DJ Dragon then took it up several levels once he was in the zone for the reception. Let's just say, no one wanted it to end...💃🏾

Just Add Flowers?

Okay, listen. Please bear with us as we gush about our wonderful vendors that made ChaNel & Derrick’s event and amazing success.

Today we are talking about the lovely ladies of Signature Inspirations.

After reaching out to 5 other florists, I reached out to Camille exactly 6 weeks prior to the wedding date. At this time both ChaNel & I were frustrated with the quotes for flowers for the day. You see, she loves eucalyptus and hydrangea, yet wanted a tropical look that will fit the mood of the Venue. She didn’t want too much color in the flowers, just pops of her chosen colors - orange and blue - to let the surrounding beauty provide by nature to be the highlight.

As I relayed these requests to Camille, she asked for a few photos to reference. Her exact words after reviewing them were “these inspiration photos are not giving😂”. Immediately, I thought, she gets it. She said, I can do this for you, and I will fix it up. Y’all, she took the vision and made it absolutely stunning.

ChaNel & Derrick loved it - she said she couldn’t picture how the orange and the blue would come together without being too much, and that Camille created a masterpiece that was just perfect.

The Palms Hotel & Spa in Miami Beach Provides The Best of Both Worlds!

When ChaNel & I first began our correspondence, her requests were:
-Great beach or view of the beach
-Garden/Tropical Area
-Nice outdoor area for the reception

We first started looking in Fort Lauderdale, because she had just come from her annual girls trip and just loved the area. Ultimately, the best venue that fit her requirements was The Palms Hotel & Spa in Miami Beach. It had a quaint little courtyard complete with a Gazebo and Arbor areas, a gorgeous Verandah that is shaded and surrounded by the greenery offered by the courtyard. Plus, there is a spacious South Lawn edged by well manicured hedges, and the most romantic semi private Tiki area, perfect for an intimate gathering. These all checked her boxes, but best of all, this Resort is situated on a prime spot of Miami Beach, with a collection of romantic rocks that could just add beauty and flair to some sunset photos. Needless to say, after we did a virtual venue walk through with her, she was sold.

She loves the beach, but Derrick, he is not fussy about the sand. He prefers lakes and having fun on the grass. This Venue provided the best of both worlds for them. They have iconic photos on the South Lawn, had a gorgeous first look amongst the Trellis in the Arbors, took sunset photos on the beach and danced like there was no tomorrow under the gorgeous Tiki.

We’re so grateful to have worked with Barbara and her team to make this amazing day happen for ChaNel & Derrick.

Meet ChaNel Our First Bride Of The Year💃🏾👯‍♂️

👰🏾‍♀️ChaNel is from Pennsylvania and is getting married in Miami Beach this weekend.

💄💋She did two bride trials with some of the best ladies in the business - shout out to Vee & Monique for two incredible beats.

While both were fabulous, and she looked GAW-JUS (which we made sure to let her know), it was not her style. A layered on effect was not what she was comfortable with. She prefers a more airbrushed look, which she ultimately decided on doing.

Okay, so here’s my point (I promise the backstory was important), it’s YOUR day. You are supposed to be comfortable. You’re supposed to feel beautiful and confident.

‼️It’s okay to try something new, but do it in your Make Up Trial. This will help you feel more confident about what you would look like on your day and helps you to make mods if there is something you don’t like.

P.S. Miami! & are now booking, so make sure you lock them in for your engagement photos, wedding day, or engagement party!

Intimate Weddings Are Better Than Big Weddings

Okay, this is our opinion anyway. It's why we specialize in it. There is no right or wrong amount of guests to have at your wedding, especially when the two of you come from big families.

Intimate Weddings hold a special place in our hearts because it allows you to share one of THE most important days of your life with the people that truly are your TRIBE. The ones that will always ride for you and your spouse no matter what.

If you feel like you want a smaller wedding (100 guests or less), but aren't sure how to go about this without hurting some feelings...send us a DM. Let's set up a quick FREE consult.

I (Danielle) had the opportunity to travel to Vegas to Wedding MBA for the first time this November. What a great time it was.

Happy Friday!

How y'all feeling?

Ms Kelly felt awesome after saying I do to her awesome beau Eric (who lovingly looks on while standing under the arch).

We faced location changes, covid restrictions and even a thunderstorm! Kelly & Eric said no, they weren't changing the beach, and even the storm and rain stayed away to give them their beautiful day as imagined.

I hope their energy take you through the weekend!

Sometimes wedding expectations can ruin friendships. This lady highlighted her expectations from her friends and even gave them the option to say no to being a bridesmaid - with no hard feelings.

Honestly, this is a great example of setting expectations. Her tone could be a little warmer, however, it outlines some of the expenses would be incurred if her friends commit plus FAQs.

Kelly and Eric watch the sunrise each morning together, whether they are together or apart.

Naturally, the ceremony had to be at sunrise. Such joy it was to watch them commit to each other in a way that was meant to be.

As we wished her congratulations and chatted about how stunning and gorgeous she is, it was such a humble experience to find out that she is gorgeous, both inside and out.

So. Let's talk about weddings at Sandals.

If you were not on today at three, you missed some great exciting news, great incentives, simply amazing.

Can't wait to see you beautiful brides in your tropical location. And oh. We were not in the chapel because the wedding ran longer today than expected. But listen. She was
S T U N N I N G!

Her dress was everything, and against the gorgeousness of the Chapel. So it was allowed.

Pictured below is some of the visual options you can choose from to upgrade your wedding.
