We’re officially on the way to Spain and can’t wait for the How We Gather festivities to begin on Sunday! 🥳 🤩

Chels created How We Gather with the love for meeting/celebrating others, seeing new + intentional ideas explored, nurturing the deep passion for hosting others, and carving out special time for special relationships that last forever.

The result? A creative content event that promotes community and culture at its core! We craft unique color palettes, energy-evoking experiences, and inclusive moments for photographers from all types + seasons to capture. We cannot wait to celebrate 6 years of this content shoot in Spain and decided to take to a destination in honor of our 5 year anniversary! In true Gathering Co. fashion – CHEERS, babes! ✨

you know what the most important thing about your wedding day is? 💕

having FUN with your person! and the best way to make sure your day is filled with laughter and joy starts with your design.

MacKenzie and Phillip are full of adventure and love winter, laughing together, and being cozied up in each other’s arms – so we brought all of their favorite things together in their design! creating a day that felt true to them made their wedding so much more special and carefree.

if you’re in the middle of planning your wedding and aren’t finding joy in it, we encourage you to take a step back and ask yourself how you can turn every task into a fun experience that truly represents your relationship. start with an intentional design, put fun at the forefront, and the rest will fall into place!

cheers, babes! 🥂

this one gave me butterflies 🦋

when Jocelyn’s family asked me to be a part of this bridal brunch design, I could not say no. one reason being that I love them all so dearly and secondly, I had to get in on these precious plans! Planning the details was my favorite part and we hope you find joy in them too 🌟 (how cute are these plantable butterfly cut outs?!)

all dressed in white & ready for a par-tee 🌟

this one speaks for itself - Sammy & Justin are so special to us and clearly their day radiates how absolutely stunning they are inside and out.

This design was created FOR & WITH them. With intentional design you get to see your story told through your wedding and to us, that’s the most incredible piece. Sam & Justin had love for their people, color, food, flower details, DiDi (sweet bb Dalmatian), and let’s not forget … GOLF 😂 in their day and I have to say … it was epic. NOT pictured here is a little surprise we’ll have to share next time… let’s just say - they hit the target 🎯

All the love - cheers, babes!

It’s the hat for us 🤤

So proud of .thegatheringco and for this epic design + styled shoot !

Inspired by the parent trap and modern details, this editorial in September rocked the socks off of some 2024 trends we’re now seeing 🎀

And with that, happy Monday babes! We spent our morning with a financial advisor doing all the adult things - now it’s worky work time 👏🏻 We hope it’s an epic week for everyone!

Handmade origami swans & a fur baby make for the ultimate details 💗 Joy and HJ’s wedding was nothing short of personality and absolute beauty.

From the wintery, vibrant color palette to the unforgettable Paebaek it was one we with never forget. SO much more of the design & these two to come (wait to see the 🐸 frogs… )

on an unrelated note: we receive hundreds of messages pouring love out to our beloved Ella Mae (🐶) who passed this week. she was the most joyful, beautiful spirit and she is missed beyond what we thought was even possible. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for the support - this community is truly a solid ground. We love you 💗

Cheers and happy holiday weekend!!

when you thought you were getting 60 degree weather + a hurricane but instead got sun, hot air balloon rides, a sun burnt planner, and epic memories.

Huge shoutout to for truly putting his full self into his wedding days. Interacting with guests + immersing himself into the moments is why these epic experiences were captured. Thank you for truly grabbing the vibe 🩶 what a day.

if this is your vibe, we’re friends 👏🏻

on a heartstring note - we are so thankful for everyone that has poured their prayers + words into us and sweet Ella girl. My pup of 10 years… if you missed our story yesterday the outcome is some form of cancer and it’s on her liver. We’re continuing to pray for + hope for more answers to best support this sweet, sweet girl. Thank you all for your patience as we had a jolting start to our week.

All the love,
Chels + T
