I just loved all the color in this wedding! I adored this couple and their son!

These two were in love with the desert and knew their wedding had to be there! Weather is always a factor when planning for a wedding here- especially with all the rain we have been having! But the sun came out and it was a perfect day! I can’t get over how photogenic these two are!! Thank you to and for making my couple look like they were made for the movies!

This was a real-life fairytale! Complete with a castle and you guessed it- a fairygodmother (me!) Meg and Cole love the mountains. Avid snowboarders, they are regulars on the mountain and when they found this estate, they knew that there was no other place for their epic wedding! But they knew it would be challenging. Most private estates have a lot of variables that need to be considered and logistics that need to be thought through. So to cut through some of the overwhelm they brought our team on board. We put together an incredible vendor team that was able to ensure their guests had a great experience at their castle in the forest wedding. It was truly magical and I can say that they lived happily ever after!

Did you know that at the end of one of the weddings,  me and had walked 12 miles in one day?! 🏃🏻‍♀️So much work goes into every wedding. It truly is a team effort by all the vendors involved. Your florist, your dj, hair and makeup artist, cake artist, rental company- the list can go on and on depending on what you want your wedding to look and feel like. And when we all are doing what we love and there is excellent communication between your team members it's golden! Here's some of the behind the scenes of a and the people that make the magic happen! Thank you for these BTS shots! I never get any of us working!

If you didn't already know, we are self-professed coffee snobs. No Starbucks for us. It's kind of a non-negotiable on wedding days. And it pairs perfectly with our OCD. We obsess over the details for everyone involved- our couples and your vendors- so you don't have to! What is your get up and go drink of choice?

11/18/2021

Sometimes things don't go as planned and you have to improvise. That's what planners do best. We are masters at improvising. And this photo is proof that sometimes it can end up better than you originally planned.

I was working with the florist that afternoon for the install of the florals and it was brought to our attention that the previous design concept was not going to work due to some circumstances beyond our control. Rather than panic, we collaborated with the florist to come up with a design aesthetic that the bride would love just as much if not better---and our bride was in love! Guests all night were saying that this was the prettiest wedding they had ever been to! It was nothing short of magical.

If you want you and your guests to have a truly incredible night to remember, make sure you work with an exceptional team. That is exactly what we strive for in this chaotic wedding season- a team environment that has a "can do" attitude with great communication. Do you know that we can be communicating with as many as 12 different vendors on your wedding day? It requires patience, decisive action, and having a plan B and C in your back pocket for whatever the wedding day throws at us. We are ready for it and we got you!

This was our first dance song. I know it's goofy but we loved the movie. It was special to us because we literally had a moment when we were dating that both of us could see ourselves growing old with each other. It was a pretty crazy moment and we didn't tell each other till months later, but we knew. I hope all of you find your special song and most of all- someone to grow old with. NOVEMBER 15TH IS OUR 18TH ANNIVERSARY! I can not even fathom I'm saying those words. It's a blink of the eye and yet half my life. I'm more in love with him every day and thank God for bring us together. Check out my stories for some photos of us through the years!

I was so excited to have Stevie from join my couples vendor team for their cake and mini desserts! Selecting excellent vendors for your wedding day dreams are part of our concierge style wedding planning service. We hear all the time that the level of attention we give to our couples and vendors alike isn't typical among other planners. We take it to a whole new level!

This is what happiness looks like! Maybe its the fact that they were finally celebrating! Maybe its because of all they went through to get to this moment. Or maybe its because they were able to relax knowing they had a planner taking care of all the details! 🤣 But seriously, this was such an incredible joy filled day! These two were so in love and dedicated to each other. There are sometimes certain couples that you meet, that you instantly fall in love with. I was so excited when they chose us to plan their wedding and truly feel honored to have been a part of their story. I can't help but smile when I look at their photos and it just warms my heart to see them so happy! Congratulations Laura and Anthony!!!

In 35 minutes it will be my 40th birthday! Its a weird dynamic. I don't feel 40. Well- my body does sometimes, but 20 years have flown by in a blink. When I look back at all the memories, I can't wait to see what's in store in the next 40!
🎉🥂
So I haven't done this in a while, but a little about myself... I wanted to be a singer or an actress growing up. I loved musicals and plays. I even tried out for American Idol once and was in a band dreaming of becoming a singer-songwriter. I love cheesecake, good food, and I'm a coffee snob. I love meeting people . That's a lot of "I's"... Tell me something interesting about yourself!

Incredible couple, amazing wedding party and one gorgeous venue- weddings at The Bougainvillea Estate in Indio are the perfect estate wedding location!

On our first site visit for their wedding at the Bougainvillea Estate, I was totally in love! When you arrive, a large gate opens up to this beautiful, very long, tree-lined driveway with green grass on either side that leads to a beautiful courtyard with a fountain in the middle.

This wedding was so full of color! Sapphire blues, rust oranges, deep burgundy, and emerald greens! Blush and white is always classy and gorgeous! But part of our job as designers is taking your idea's and pinterest images and making it your own! And when my bride said she wanted color- we delivered! This is no easy task. It's fun and beautiful when you see the finished product. But what you don't see is the many hours spent creating and editing and editing some more-just to get the perfect layout and colors. So when we show you what your wedding day could look like and see the full (30 + page) design board at our design review meeting, you cry happy tears because its everything you hoped for and more! That. Is. The. Best. We live for this stuff! 👊🏻❤

They have no idea what they are in for

05/21/2021

Planning a wedding is definitely a production. Yes, it's a sacred, special, life changing moment. But it also requires a lot of work to keep all the moving parts running smoothly together much like actors in a play or movie. Making sure that everyone is on the same page in the script requires leadership and direction. And sometimes, like in a play, there are mishaps or mistakes that happen. In a play someone can forget their lines or a piece of the stage backdrop can fall down or there can be a missing prop- the list goes on and on. Similarly, in a wedding with that many moving parts and that many people involved, there is bound to be something to go wrong. In acting, being able to improvise can save the scene and in most cases the audience never even knows something went wrong. We are masters at improvising. When things go wrong it is our job to figure out a solution so your wedding looks effortless, beautiful AND ORGANIZED! A lot of our job entails troubleshooting. And that is good news for you, because it means less that you have to worry about on your wedding day. Your welcome.😘📋💞 .

This family has my heart! We have planned so many other events for their family, I feel like they ARE family !! Be sure you grab a tissue before you scroll through these photos! Sarah and Marco wrote their own vows and I'm telling you, it was a struggle to hold back the tears. And to top it off.... Marco said his own vows to Sarah's daughter and presented her with own special ring! Everyone was crying happy tears. We get so invested in our couples that it's always a little sad when it's over. But it is such an honor and so incredible that we get to be a part of the beginning of their lives together! ❤ I'm not crying! You're crying!!!

I say this ALL. THE. TIME! I know I don't need to tell you weddings are stressful. Things can definately start to get even more tense the closer you get to your wedding date. But what if I told you there was a way to skip the drama????

Friends and family love you. And they want to help you with your wedding. But I have to ask you...at what expense. Their time...their energy...their patience...all wears out at some point. And thats when things are said that they really don't mean and feelings get hurt. You should feel nothing but excitement on your wedding day and the key to that is having the months and days leading up to your wedding day be as stress free as possible. When a decision has to be made you can count on us to provide a experienced and well thought out answer. And all you have to tell anyone that questions your decision is "My planner said..." 🤣

Are you struggling with pinterest overload? As you pin picture after picture on your wedding pinterest board it can start to look chaotic. You can really start to become confused about what YOU want for your wedding. My biggest advice is to keep it simple. Pick 1-3 things that you can not do without. Constantly refer back to those things when making other decisions to help you create a cohesive look and feel for your wedding. You can appreciate the beauty in other people's weddings, but don't let it dictate to you what yours should look like! 😘

I am so excited to announce my brand new logo!!! I have been toying with the idea of changing it for the last 3 years and finally made the leap! I really wanted it to convey the level of attention and professionalism that we provide for all our clients and knocked it out of the park! Thank you Kelly for understanding me and my brand! I finally have a submark! Lol! I'm so excited for all of you to see it!

We immediately hit it off with Jenneh and Joe. Their attention to detail, design, and a “know what they want” attitude made designing this wedding a dream! Now the Mission Inn doesn’t need much. It’s naturally beautiful. But it gave us the challenge of designing some personalized pieces that...

Details make all the difference. It's the difference between your wedding looking like everyone's else or getting shared and reshared on social media by your friends and family and dare I say other wedding blogs?! 😃

We always aim to really wow your guests with our design and the flow of your wedding day by aligning you with exceptionally talented professionals. Take for instance here! Our couple wanted a truly one-of-a-kind invitation to really build the excitement around their destination wedding weekend. And we knew exactly who to call 😘 We take incredible care to ensure YOU , AND YOUR GUESTS are well taken care of. Hospitality is in our blood. From your reception to your invitations- you'll be well taken care of.

If this year has taught us anything, it's that we are not in control, right? It truly makes me appreciate my husband. When everything feels like "The Twilight Zone", I am so thankful that I get to have him by my side. For better or for worse, in sickness and in health, for richer or poorer, when we both are hangry or need another cup of coffee- I'm so glad that Jesus put him in my life to be by my side. Dumpster fire and all.

When your wife's favorite song starts playing at your wedding...you sing along! Love these two! 💃🕺
It is so important for the overall vibe of your wedding that your DJ is experienced and knows how to play to the crowd . Getting your guests out of their seats takes skill and can totally make or break your wedding reception.
But I never have to worry because the DJs I work with are masters at this! Thanks and Hallie Ashford for getting everyone on the dance floor!

I'm sure you have heard, " It's your wedding. Do what you want", from friends and family that mean well. That is good advice for the things that are specific to you both like your personal vows, if you want a first look, or if you want a champagne toast. BUT.....you want everyone that attended your wedding to say that it was the best wedding they have been to right?! How does that happen? By putting yourself in your guests shoes. Think back to all the weddings you have been to. I'm sure you can recall the things you've loved about some weddings and the things that you hated. Keep these things in mind when making decisions with your planner. We always advise you to act in the best interest of your guests but it is ultimately your decision. Just think about all those hearts and comments you could get on your Instagram from happy guests! 😆

Are you a type-A person? Do you have all your vendors already secured for your wedding? YOU DID IT! Congrats! That is no easy task. You are a rockstar in my book. That's a lot of time...AND EMAILS! 💪 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀But now it's time to focus on the logistics...the coming and going of all 10+ of your vendors, their arrival times, setup locations, electrical needs, dietary restrictions, and breakdown. What your venue allows and what it doesn't. And...make sure that you are always available for questions from your vendors in the months leading up to and ON your wedding day.

Sound fun? I didn't think so. And don't think the venue coordinator is going handle all that for you either. They have their own things to manage at the venue. Doesn't sipping on champagne while you get pampered sound more appealing? 🙌 🥂 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
For my Type A brides out there... our Wedding Management Service is for you! Take for example. She was a woman after my own heart! I was blown away by her itemized budget, vendor spreadsheets and layout! She was one of the most organized brides I've had and I loved her for it! But she also knew that she didn't want to do it all and needed a planner that was experienced, a master troubleshooter, and could make sure her guests were having a great time! 🙋‍♀️ And we delivered! Her guests are still saying that the wedding was the best ever! And we think so too! ⠀⠀
