I remember watching on her wedding day as she made taking care of her son a priority above all that was happening for her & her husband this past May. I took note of her as she cared for her baby in her fresh hair & makeup. I admired the way she enveloped her son into the surrounding events. And I remember thinking to myself as I watched her putting him before her own needs on her wedding day, that it was the most accurate summation of motherhood there is. We sacrifice & we make choices for our babies before ourselves.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
For the past year I’ve been navigating all of this myself with my twins. I’ve found that there is officially nothing that gives me greater joy than spending time watching them learn & grow, & being with them. It’s for this reason that I’ll be stepping away from weddings for now.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Almost exactly 4 years ago, I launched this business, & it has brought me SO much delight to guide couples through their planning & share in the happiness of their day. However, mothering, the mental load, & finding my own self again has been challenging (to say the least…multiplied by 2). I will be finishing out my weddings that are currently booked & will continue to work with venues who have me as a preferred vendor from time to time, but my priority for the foreseeable future will be William & James. This is not a goodbye (tea talks are always available & my website & DMs will remain open), but I will be taking a break to maintain my number one job.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Thank you for the past 4 years of wedding memories & beautiful moments. I am forever grateful to each of you who have helped make Simply Sharp Weddings successful, & I am excited to collaborate again when the time is right. Here is to the remainder & the future…& all the mothers who make our lives the best they can possibly be 🥂 💜

Here is your regular reminder to always share feedback with your vendors! We appreciate it more than you know, & it helps other wonderful people continue finding us.

Thank you to Anniina & Brian for choosing us to plan & execute your day with you. It was our pleasure! 💜

Nearly 5 days have passed since this perfect day, but I’m still not over it 😭

This past Friday I got to take off my planner hat (for the most part 😉 ) & enjoy being Maid of Honor for my best friend of nearly 20 years.

They had a beautiful (read: hot) day with so many gorgeous details that represented the two of them as individuals & a couple.

Here is your regular reminder to plan the wedding that represents YOU, find unique ways to celebrate your love, & to always opt in for the final dance alone on the dance floor. ✨

There’s just something magical about a beautiful backyard wedding (rain or shine) ✨

The love surrounding & yesterday was so palpable & we are eternally grateful to have been a part of it 🩷

Cannot wait to share what the fabulous captured, but for now, some bts phone photos will have to do 🙌🏻

Hi! Im Theresa Sharp - owner and founder of Simply Sharp Weddings 🤗

I created this business in 2019 after enjoying planning my own wedding. I found that helping people do the same was my new passion!

Now let’s flash forward to 7.5 months ago when my twin boys made me a mom. Life got immeasurably more challenging & infinitely more fulfilling.

I’ve learned & evolved SO much over these past months. Part of what I’m learning is letting go, prioritizing, & setting boundaries. So I’m here to lift the curtain & let you know that it’s going to get quieter around here. Creating social media content is challenging enough without two littles preoccupying every corner of my brain. But they deserve that attention & focus. So for now, you know where to find me! And of course there is an entire catalogue of content here for anyone new 🙌🏻

Cheers to the 2023 wedding season, we’re excited for all it has in store 🩷

FINALLY feeling like spring around here this week! Who else is as excited for spring & all that it brings?! AND it means we’re close to WEDDING SEASON again 😍

Fear. Let’s discuss the things that are stressing you out or scare you when it comes to planning your wedding. And then let’s talk about how we can help make all of that fade away when you have us on your side during the process!

Who doesn’t love a good wedding hack?!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In case you missed this one surfacing the internet last year, we’re bringing it back.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Keep the chain of your necklace in place with a bit of eyelash glue. This will prevent you from needing to adjust all day long. Additionally, it will erase frustration you could have when you look back at photos & find yourself focusing on that one minor out of place detail. ✨

Today we are thrilled to bring you the story of Brian & Anniina, one of our 2023 couples 😍
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The two met 5 years ago in Finland where Anniina is from. Brian is from the US, but was working in Finland at the time, playing in a Finnish hockey team in KHL. His friend’s wife was a customer at a beauty salon where Anniina was working, & she told Brian to ask Anniina on a date…the rest is history!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Over the past five years, the two have done a lot of moving & traveling between Finland & Florida (where they spend summers). They got engaged, had a baby in Finland, then moved to Switzerland, & now are traveling between Switzerland, Finland & the US as a family of 3!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Even though they will be celebrating their marriage this spring, they are actually already married - “Our move from Finland to Switzerland came as a surprise, & to make some things easier when traveling & living in a new country with a baby, we did a quick visit to the city hall one morning & got married in 5 minutes at 10am wearing jeans. That pretty much sums up our lifestyle.😂”
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We cannot wait to help them bring everything together one year later to FINALLY celebrate their marriage surrounded by loved ones.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Thank you for choosing us, Brian & Anniina! Welcome to the Simply Sharp family 🥰

07/03/2023

Timelines, timelines, & more timelines. Weddings involve planning before, during, & even after the big day. It’s often the most stressful part of getting the details organized. 😩
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
However, the biggest thing I can do is help to get all of those details together with you. I’ve been there before time & again, where you likely are planning for the first time. So trust your experts! We’re here to help. 🙌🏻
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Have questions? Share them in the comments 👇🏼 or today’s story 🤗

Around here we know EXACTLY how stressful the wedding planning process can be. That’s why today we challenge you to take this Valentine’s Day as an opportunity to remember your why.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
💜 why you love each other
💜 why you’re planning a wedding in the first place
💜 why you decided on forever together
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Use every moment possible to make real connections with each other today & every day. The planning decisions & details can wait ✨

Your guests don’t have to just attend the ceremony. You can personalize your day to include them! 🤗
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
One way might be to have guests ask “do you take ______ to be your ____?” during vows. This allows guests to actually partake in your wedding & gives your day that extra personal touch. If you want to have guests be part of the ceremony, they can be led by your officiant, or directed to speak through the use of a program. Get creative! 🥰
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

30/01/2023

Before you get completely overwhelmed by the planning of your perfect wedding, take a deep breath & remember the reason you’re here in the first place. It’s all about the two of you & the love you share.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And when the overwhelm gets too much, reach out so we can take your worry away & allow you to enjoy the celebration of your love ✨

As the year winds down, I’d like to say a HUGE thank you to everyone who made this year exceptionally wonderful. It was a wild ride for me personally as I navigated pregnancy & then the birth of our twins, but I am so fortunate to have had the support of amazing vendors & couples the entire way through.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Here’s to the next season & all the joy it will bring us!

We are absolutely THRILLED to welcome Izzy & Brendan to the Simply Sharp Wedding family as they prepare for their big day next summer 😍
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Brendan & Izzy met at the Jersey shore in high school (a classic Jersey Kid summer fling as she calls it 😉) but their love grew SO much more beyond that. After loving each other as high school sweethearts, they are now engaged many years later & preparing for their 2023 wedding!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
“We’ve been with each other through so many seasons of our life. After many cities & years apart we made it back to our hometown & opened up a restaurant together!”
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
These two are an absolute joy to be around, & their love radiates so beautifully when you’re with them. We absolutely cannot wait to see them through to their big day! 😍🤗
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And shameless plug from me for their amazing restaurant - go check out ! You won’t be sorry!

03/12/2022

We are officially just 6 months away from celebrating the wedding of one of my favorite people on this planet as she marries her wonderful fiancé 😍
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Dylan & Shane met on an airplane while traveling to Ireland (his home, her place for study abroad). Their decade-long history spans multiple countries, residencies in various states together, one perfectly adorable pup, & an engagement that took place mid flight last fall in a truly full-circle moment✨ 💍
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In June we will be celebrating their love in Philadelphia, & it will be one wedding I absolutely cannot wait be a part of (no planning here - just matron of honor duties & fun!)
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
May the next 6 months fly by so we can celebrate these two who deserve all the happiness in the world 🥂💜

24/11/2022

This year my (newly complete) family & I have a LOT to be grateful for. A major piece of that gratitude is for every single one of you who support this business.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Thank you to:
💜 Every couple who has chosen us to support you on your journey
💜 Every vendor who has seen us through the best days ever
💜 Every person who shares, recommends, & mentions Simply Sharp Weddings
💜 So much more
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We wouldn’t be here without you all, & we are forever grateful for a wonderful season 🥰

Had the pleasure of visiting this past weekend as a wedding guest & it was LOVELY.

It is a quaint, charming space with great vendors, a beautiful terrace, & built in hotel blocks for your guests! 10/10 would love to return again.

Congratulations to Shannon & Tyler on your marriage & gorgeous day 😍✨

08/11/2022

I’m not sure who needs to hear this, but please know that not every inch of your venue requires a designated sign. Guests can locate a ceremony site & desserts will always be identifiable.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When deciding on your decor, ask yourself what purpose it is serving. Are you setting up a sign to look cute, function purposefully, or is it not actually necessary? Then remember that after the wedding you’ll have a stockpile of signs & nowhere to put them 🤷🏼‍♀️ Not to mention, someone has to place them out & take them down again.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So if you’ve been needing one, here is YOUR sign to ditch all the unnecessary signage for the big day.

Over one year ago we started planning with Leah & Jay & we are FINALLY one day away from it all coming together 🤗

After two months home with our twins, it’s time to get back into the swing of things (slowly but surely!).

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Popping on to share the beautiful wedding of Jackie & Diego from last weekend 🤩

I am so happy to have amazing support in our industry & am delighted to see how amazingly their day turned out 😍✨

Pro Tip: send your planner the invite!! You know we’re going to be there, but we LOVE your stationery as much as you do & are as obsessed with wedding mail as you are 🤩 Cannot wait for the big day, Clara & Rob!! #ProTipTuesday

Pro Tip: Do not be afraid to walk yourself down the aisle Let’s face it, some wedding traditions are not for everyone. And that is perfectly okay! Just because people have their wedding a certain way, does not mean you have to follow. If you want to walk yourself down the aisle (or change any “typical” tradition for that matter) do not shy away from doing what makes you feel the best on YOUR day 🙌🏻 #ProTipTuesday

Twirling into a new week like 🤩 Happy Monday, everyone! Hoping a little sparkle will make this rainy day/week brighter ✨ Venue: Faunbrook B&B @faunbrook Photography: Erin Murphy Designs @erinmurphydesigns Planning: Simply Sharp Wedding Management @simplysharpweddings Florals: Matlack Florist @matlackfloristweddings Stationery: Minted @mintedweddings Hair & Makeup: Alexandra Pettinaro @alexandrapettinaro Lash Extensions: DeCourcy Beauty @decourcybeauty Models: Erin Preis & Kyle Mclemore

The rain couldn’t put a damper on my excitement to visit Drumore Mill on Harmony today 😍😍😍 Here’s a sneak peak at just SOME of the amazing spaces & amenities you’ll get to utilize for your wedding day 🙌🏻 I absolutely cannot wait to see all the gorgeous weddings that will take place in the future!!! Ready to learn more?! I’d be happy to share 🥰

Let’s talk day of setup. Who takes your venue & makes it PERFECT so you don’t have to worry about it & lose time on or before your wedding day? Your amazing vendor team of course! 🤩 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ We work DILIGENTLY on your wedding day to make sure everything is flawless & matches your expectations. Specifically, I coordinate your ENTIRE vendor team so that everyone stays on schedule before guests arrive. I also handle transitional needs between ceremony & reception (ahem…who did you THINK would move those signs & guestbook? 😉) Literally ANYTHING you need…I got you covered. This includes the HIGHLY important job of cake transport when necessary 🙌🏻 The end result should be the vision you are SO delighted to finally see come to life without stressing over the what/when/where ✨ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #WeddingQuestionWednesday

Pro Tip: Hire a Planner even if you have a Venue Coordinator

Just because your venue has a coordinator, does not mean that you don’t also need a wedding planner! We love collaborating with your venue coordinators! They are the experts of your venue & make great team members among your vendors. So, why not have the best of both worlds?! Happy planning 🤗 #ProTipTuesday

Pro Tip: Pack Your Ring Cleaning Kit for the Big Day

Your ring is going to be a big part of photos on your wedding day - so make sure that it is shiny & clean! While you can always have it professionally done beforehand, it’s also a good idea to make sure that you have a cleaner with you that day to keep it fresh & sparkling ✨ 💍 #ProTipTuesday

It’s that time of year when traditions are heavily on our minds. Just like the holidays, there are MANY wedding traditions. Some you might ADORE, & others you could care less about. Whatever traditions you come across, find the ones that fit YOU & your PARTNER. Finding none that you love? CREATE new traditions! No one says you HAVE to make your wedding day follow everyone else’s ideas - that is what makes it uniquely yours. Find the traditions that are meaningful to you BOTH & that bring JOY to your special day 👏🏻 #ProTipTuesday What traditions have you already/are you planning to stick with, toss, or create? Tell us below! ☺️👇🏼 (I’ll share ours in the comments too!)

#ProTipTuesday is here! Today’s take - THROW AWAY THE BUDGET (kind of). Do your research, accept the RIGHT recommendations, keep detailed notes on your research, & then piece everything together with what you’re willing to spend. AKA put all your spending together like a puzzle AFTER you & your partner discuss what you can POTENTIALLY spend, instead of stressing out about perfectly sizing your spending under one strict number. 💸 What are your thoughts on budget?
