You’re going to want to hear this client story.
I’m more than a little proud of this event that my team pulled off.

I love the text I got from this bride - we are with you for everything, because logistics are supposed to support the people.

“Heading out on our honeymoon—thank you and your team for everything! Please also send my extra thanks to your first assistant who literally used her own lip liner on me—truly a lifesaver.”

Spilling the Tea 🫖 on my thoughts around the tips and tricks culture and if this actually = the wedding of your dreams.

Tomorrow… what happens when you follow a plan and set intention for what you’re doing.

hey, Fall 2024 and 2025 couples! 👋🏼

Did you know it’s already time to start thinking of your wedding schedule?

Keep reading .. but first
comment TIMELINE!

We’re hosting a free timeline workshop and we’d love YOU to be there!

It will tell you:
👊 When you need our photographer to start
👊If you need another stylist for makeup
👊How much time you have for dancing at the end
👊 Not doing a first look? When you DO need to do those photos

and other details like breakfast, first look w Dad, and why you need 30 minutes to put your dress on (for the gents, 10 🫶🏻)

Free to sign up, with a replay!

The Wedding Planning Playbook is here. 🔥🫶🏻💫

A supportive, get right into it, approachable membership for couples who are planning a wedding on their own and are currently relying on general online tools and their vendor team.

You’ve been doing a pretty good job of planning so far, you’ve been working on booking your vendors, but you’re realizing

⏱ the days are flying by and some weeks go by with you only having an hour or two to spend on wedding planning

📚You and your partner are both attorneys (or doctors, financial advisors…) so you know you’re more than capable, but you also know you don’t have event planning know-how and keep hitting roadblocks

⛵️This is for the couple who are willing to invest in the RIGHT service to take their wedding plans to new heights.

Our framework in the Wedding Planning Playbook that we’ve used with our own 1:1 planning clients:

🎉Plan multi-day, cultural, tented events with 6 figure budgets (150k+)

🎉Plan and pivot tented weddings in the mountains.. and a rain plan

🎉 Use the framework with consulting clients to keep them on track and confident .. with 4-6 planning calls

🎉 Plan an entire wedding in 3 months

MEET THE WEDDING PLANNING PLAYBOOK:
🦋See what’s inside 🦋

We noticed our client’s stress, questions, and the lack of support came down to 3 things:
🫶🏻 Needing C L A R I TY on WHAT THE HECK they were supposed to ask when interviewing vendors

🫶🏻 D I R E C T I O N on which vendors to hire next, and like, the must do ass-is-on-fire deadline

🫶🏻 P E A C E O F M I N D that you’re doing such a beautiful job, so when Aunt Sally starts peppering you with questions, you ain’t worried

This membership is the first of its kind .. because it takes the usually only for 1:1 clients into the online space … but designed by an *actual*, seasoned wedding planner.

………………………DRUM ROLL………………………………

We’re celebrating 🥳 over here as we announce a brand new way for couples to plan their weddings!

Meet: THE WEDDING PLANNING PLAYBOOK

The first of its kind membership for couples planning a wedding on their own, who are desiring support from a seasoned professional and their peers but in a way that they want to plan: online.

You might say, “Oh, we have the knot and zola and facebook groups.”

And I will say, Yes! And stress and overwhelm are the most common feelings during wedding planning.

You might say, I’ve been able to get some pretty good advice online

And I will say, Yes! and did you see that brides article talking about needing a SHOT LIST? (No, you only need one for family photos).

You might say, My X vendor has been really helpful!And, I will say, Yes! Most vendors are happy to jump in. But should your photographer really weigh in on when hair and makeup should wrap? (They might be super experienced but their answer is based on what they know).

HERE’S the DEAL.

All of those places are here for a reason.
You might be able to piecemeal and filter through the inputs.
Andddd the 2024 couple deserves something better.

So here’s a question…
Do you know someone planning a wedding?
How are they *actually* doing?
Do you think they need some support but someone day of won’t help them … now?

Comment PLAYBOOK to get a peek at this new kid on the block!

The happy accident often becomes the juicy favorite.
When and I took on 5 of DC’s venues and architectural gems, the Riggs wasn’t on the original list.

But, the Portrait Gallery was, and what a duo that would be! Getting ready and some portraits at the Riggs, with your ceremony and dinner just steps away at the Portrait Gallery…

So who’s ready for a super swanky and very DC wedding weekend?!

Accidentally took a little break but we are excited to dive back in.

And you guys. I’m noticing a few things.
Are you feeling the amount of to-dos and unknown with planning? And where do you go with those?
People have a tendency to go to their peers for questions, which can be great, but can also produce mixed results. (i’ll say it - sometimes good, sometimes eh advice).

We know you have a lot of places to go, but we also hear “we don’t know what we don’t know” from couples. I’m in a few facebook groups and love to see people helping each other. I also want to help get some folks some actually tested, proven strategies for planning.

So plan to tune into our stories to hear Alyssa sound off on how our team would answer that question.
Friends help friends have beautiful anddd seamless weddings.

sometimes the bold is the 🔥magic 🔥.

We worked with to launch some very exciting things coming (soon!) and I won’t lie. I was hesitant about this color. I like orange as a design pop, but this felt too much.

I had two tablescapes, and guess which was my favorite? This one. Why? Because it evokes a reaction and most importantly brings JOY.

Embrace the bold part of your story. More on that later…

Here's a for designing your wedding palette and day of details...

⚡️Blend contrasting colors, textures and patterns to create visual interest⚡️

For example, silky ribbon dancing across a lace background creates layers of appeal while a deep blue envelope and rose gold foiling provide stunning pops of color against softer tones.

You know it's a gorgeous gallery when it reminds you of Target: you go in to pick one photo for the 'gram, and leave with 6 ... because you have to include all of them.

3 core memories from this day:
++ the baraat that featured a blue maserati ... on a horse farm
++ the bride had 3 gorgeous outfit changes
++ the flawless paper and calligraphy details by .little.something

The weather may be still summery, but our calendar is letting us know October is definitely here ... why?

Because October means couples are ready to wed! It's kinda our superbowl. But the good news, we've been gearing up for these since Spring Season wrapped, at least. (!!).

We have some GORGEOUS weddings coming up, starting with a fusion wedding for J+B at Tranquility Farm. We get to be a part of their mehendi party and will be on-site from Thursday-Saturday. And we canNOT wait. Definitely stay tuned for some beautiful color, stationery, and all.the.things.

You probably haven't thoughts about it too much, but being an entrepreneur is quite a bit like planning a wedding. Not sure you follow? Keep reading.

I've learned that ...
[] knowing where you want to go that day (think top 3 action items) is key to making ANY progress. If I have a hit list of 8, I am most likely to get zero done. So rather than trying to do caterermusicflowerspaper ... which is the most crucial to start on?

[] Accountability is the best motivator - and it's ideally someone outside your bubble (your fiance or partner make poor accountability partners. Do you have friends also getting married who you can set benchmarks and check in?

[] Going back to #1, sometimes I feel like I got "nothing" done and I look back at my week's priorities and realize I actually made MAJOR progress. That is the best fuel and motivation.
