✨On the heels of a new week and feeling immensely PROUD of my damn self. In a world that demands more and makes us feel like we are never enough, I’m giving myself flowers 💐 after what was a momentous and special wedding weekend. Yesterday, I saw my first full service clients ever (!!) tie the knot in what was the most authentic and intimate celebration of their unique love story. I’m so grateful for their trust, so thankful for the team that supported our vision and so proud of myself for the hard work it took to get to this point.

3.5 years after starting Elle, I can honestly say the best is yet to come.

Congratulations to the new Mr. and Mrs. Hart! May your love always guide you to one another. 💜

✨ Throwing it back to last weekend’s lovely nuptials:

R+L had an intimate brunch wedding with their closest friends and loved ones and no amount of rain stopped the party and outpouring of love on this day!

Love this Polaroid of the bride and her mom with matching henna 💜

‘Allow love to take root in your heart. And a million flowers will bloom within your soul.✨

Still feeling so grateful to have supported and celebrated Jess and Brian’s love this past weekend. It was my first Quaker wedding and it was perfectly profound and lovely: the couple self officiated with some support from their siblings and the ceremony featured kind, free flowing words of support from family and friends. I loved every bit of their gorgeous day. 💐

‘Love makes your heart feel strange inside
It flutters like soft wings in flight
Love is like a butterfly, a rare and gentle thing’✨

Amber + Gabe have a strong and genuine partnership that is evident to all—even folks like me that only met them a mere few months ago. They deeply love, honor and respect each other. Every piece of yesterday was carefully curated and made for such a beautiful and joyous day of celebration. Wishing you joy in the journey in building a life together, hand in hand many years to come.

::Alexa, play Vacation by The Go-Go’s::

So grateful for a long weekend to enjoy with loved ones. It’s been forever that I’ve been on a trip with zero agenda— feels good!

This is your reminder to book the trip, pack the bag and leave the laptop at home (Bonus: take work email off your devices).

Four years ago, I said a big big ‘yes’ and haven’t looked back. It was such a special day spent with our friends and loved ones. Loving the story we are writing together, . 💜✨

Flashback: First wedding ever 🤩 ✨

I’m still trying to understand the ‘scarf in summer’ fashion choice 😂 but I digress.

Cherishing all I’ve learned since that sweltering July day. 💜(Namely, that clipboards aren’t my day of vibe and that’s OK!)

“Te quiero no solo por cómo eres sino por como soy cuándo estoy contigo.” ✨

Nothing but pure, authentic expressions of love during Laura + Chris’s union this weekend. From your heartwarming first look + private vows (future couples: highly recommend) to getting down on the dance floor, your celebration was such a special day. 💜

“Pull over to the side of your journey and look how far you've come.”

This morning, I grabbed coffee at and it reminded me that almost 3.5 yrs ago I’m dreamt up Elle Events at a Blue Bottle in one my fave cities— Oakland, CA. This morning made me truly reflect and appreciate where we’ve been and where we’re going. ✨

💜What’s a place that gives you those warm and fuzzy feelings?? Drop in the comments.

06/28/2022

Mondays can take us in a million directions so it’s so important to keep ourselves grounded and focused on what matters. ✨

Particularly grateful today for:
💫 A community of creatives that inspire me and help me grow
💫 Sunny day after the rain
💫 My morning walk + embracing movement as medicine

YOUR TURN 💜 What are three things you’re grateful for today?

06/23/2022

“If you have chemistry, you only need one other thing: timing!” ✨

Matt and Kelly: your story is a true testament that timing is everything. You were a dream to work with and I’m so excited for your bright and beautiful future ahead. 💜

Embracing family is at the heart of what we do. 2022 couples— I can’t wait to celebrate with you and yours this wedding season.
