Oh hey 👋🏽

A lot has changed over the past two years and a lot is going to continue to change.

Something that is still very true is the deep desire to bring together COMMUNITY through CELEBRATING together, COLLABORATING with each other, and CREATING with one another.

What’s something you’ve learned or been reminded of over these past two years that is important to you?

C E LE B R A T E//
Christmas has passed on the calendar and this balloon arch has been popped (which is pretty sad).
The end of a year sparks reflection, reflection of what you’ve lived for the last 12 months. Maybe it was a year of loss, or opportunity. Maybe it was a year of community or maybe it was full of heartache. Whatever this year brought you, we still have this choice to celebrate when the clock strikes midnight. Celebration of the year behind us, and what’s yet to come.
As we head into a new year I want to encourage you to celebrate more this year. Celebrate the good, the bad and the in between. Creative Tides will be right there alongside you!

What was the best part of your first year being married? “SO many things but probably just living with my best friend, learning to be a team. Oh and he took me sky diving and that was the coolest.”
When all the fancy details fade away it’s about who you’re with at the end of your day. It’s a year with your best friend, it’s learning to be a team, it’s the mistakes you make, lessons you learn, and choosing to laugh a long the way that’s worth celebrating...OH and skydiving!

Happy one year and a day anniversary to & . Hope this past year and every year ahead is as magical as this picture.
So thankful we got to walk through the whole wedding process with Jessie & Jake and what an incredible gift to continue to walk through life with them.
Who are your favorite people to celebrate the big & mundane moments with?

“Okay so I’m thinking rainbow, unicorn, and slime as the theme...can you do that?“
You bet we can do that. When Sam came home from soccer 20 minutes before her party started, saw the balloons & the rest of the house, and said “I can’t wait to have the best day with my friends in this dream land...it’s SO COOL” we knew we had done well.
Sometimes we get caught up in perfecting details and forget that at the core of every event it’s really about coming together and having the best day ever with your friends.

We want to be there for every part of your story. Whether it’s a baby shower, birthday or wedding. We want to celebrate the biggest moments of your life with you!

“Music has proved to be a unique and vulnerable way of sharing an experience with other humans. Performing music is a service to self and others.” Wes Lynd

Maybe it’s a wedding, concert, or just driving in the car, no matter how big or small the moment, music allows us to enter into a shared experience.

What’s the first song that comes to mind when you think of a shared experience?

It’s so we are sharing all these beautiful thrifted details from & ‘s DIY wedding!
Creating your event from thrifted pieces makes it one of a kind. This bride & groom hand collected mixed vases and frames from different stores to create a vintage boho look. The mismatched vintage plates were found on and added such a unique touch.
Utilizing secondhand stores like , , smaller thrift shops & craigslist is a great way to save on wedding & event decor. Not only does it save, but it is better for the environment & helps reduce the waste your event produces.
Let’s get thrifting!

We love coming together for the most special moments in life. Moments filled with gratitude and love. Like a bride to be receiving encouragement from her friends before the big day.
Sometimes the best gatherings are simple - all you need is a space, some pals, laughter & some snacks. Don’t forget the snacks 🍬🍿

Every person has a story. Special events like this one with and are pretty incredible because we get to see each story collide and community brought together.
Each event is an amazing opportunity to share our gifts with each other. Whether it’s painting faces, creating balloon dinosaurs, flipping a pancake, or even just saying hello. A time to slow down and not just pass by each other but notice each other. It becomes more than a simple event, it’s celebrating our stories together.
Let’s continue to celebrate our stories. Tag someone who shares their gifts well! 🎉

Take a look at how these beautiful hand drawn invitations came to life. Watercolor portraits by a friend of the bride really helped make this invitation suite so personal. Not only do the simplest details make a day so special but DIY invitations can help save some of that 💰 in your budget ✨

“As the day of approached and the stress began to kick in, I started to realize I was way in over my head, so I contacted with .
Cassidy took on our wedding with late notice and somehow completely put me at ease. She went above and beyond for me. She made my day so much more special & memorable. She reminded me to be in the moment, set aside time for my new husband and I to have a moment to ourselves, gathered all our loved ones to share how they know/love us, and all her efforts made us feel so surrounded by love” -

“It was important to us that the vendors we were booking for our wedding were ethically and socially responsible. Creative Tides is the perfect representation of how planning your dream day can also be an opportunity to make a difference in someone’s life. It meant the world to us that our money would be used to create hope in someone else’s life.” - Jessie & Jake Saenz

“Creative Tides is the illustration of a story, it's analytical and creative, it’s collaboration and team work.
Creative Tides doesn't just plan an event, we come alongside you in all the highs and the lows of real life. I think the best part is knowing that your event doesn’t end when the day is over. It will continue to impact lives around the world and that is a gift!
Event planning is serious business but we don't take life too seriously around here!”
