Hey wedding fam 👋🏻 had to go MIA while resting and planning for our new arrival in July 💜 This time off has been wonderful to focus on our family and while I’m not sure what my future with weddings looks like right now, I do know that I have a body of work, vendor friends and amazing clients that I can look back on and be proud of 👑
