There are numerous ways to include loved ones on the wedding day.

For this client, their beloved pup P**a was not able to attend due to venue restrictions, but we secretly made sure she was included in the most special part of the day - the ceremony. I will admit, I’m not the craftiest person, so this posed a challenge for me. It took several attempts to get the size and layout of the photo accurate and then piece it into the charm just right, but the end result was perfect!

Happy anniversary Kaleen and Brian!

Their anniversary was actually a few days ago, but I’m so good at posting on Instagram these days that they’re getting a little shoutout this weekend, only slightly delayed.

It’s finally Friday and the bottle of Prosecco I’ve had chilling is ready to be enjoyed.

It’s also officially wedding season and signature drinks are still at the top of the list for personal touches. It’s a subtle and easy way to incorporate your personality into your guests’ experience.

In just five short days, our baby girl will be six months old. I’d be lying if I said it’s been easy. Truth is, it’s been chaotic in our house trying to navigate schedules and figure out childcare so we can work. We are grateful to both of our moms for helping us through the week so we can attend to our clients and continue to provide for our family. We found a little routine that’s been working, but as everyone’s needs change, so does the schedule.

It’s also been a struggle because our baby girl is on the move! She’s starting to crawl and wants to eat anything within her grasp. Her fascination with all the colors, sounds, smells and bright lights of the holidays has been such a joy to experience.

We have one more wedding to close out the 2023 season and then we’re taking some much needed time off to reset and celebrate Isabelle’s first Christmas. Our office hours for the month of December will be limited so we can adequately prepare for next year, as well. We’re looking forward to an exciting 2024 season and can’t wait to connect with our couples in January.

These blooms need a moment of their own.
odonnell had a vision for her flowers and knew up front that she wanted to be the vendor that would achieve the look she was going for. Collectively, we pooled photo inspiration, color palettes, and our must have stems and then let them take the reigns to bring the design to life.

And let me tell you what - by putting their artistic spin on our ideas, they created magic with the florals, which is exactly what we asked for! These could not have been more perfect and truly made a statement.

Happy Anniversary to us!

Hard to believe our pandemic wedding was three years ago and so much in our life has changed. We had a second wedding (with friends and family), bought a house, opened a business, and became a family of three. Looking back at 2020, we had no idea this is what our life would look like, but I’d say it’s been pretty good to us.

Enjoy some of these never before seen photos from our day.

Cheers to us baby! 🥂

The details matter.

The florals. The place settings. Stationery. Candlelight. It all comes together to create a vibe or a feeling. An instant emotion the guests remember when they walk into your space.

It’s wedding weekend for one of my best friends!

I’ve known these two for 14+ years from our days working banquets together. I’m so honored to be part of the wedding, not only as their coordinator, but as a bridesmaid, too. You won’t see many behind the scenes this weekend because I’ll be busy enjoying the day with friends and family.

Can’t wait to celebrate you both! 🥂

Yesterday was National Wedding Planning Day and of all the people I could shout out, I need to give thanks to Kenzie.

She was my right hand, my wing woman, and my clear head through the 2022 season. Many of the weddings last year were successful because of her. She always backed up my ideas or found another, better solution. She took charge of things that needed to get done to make the weddings a success and did so with a smile every time.

From the Starbucks runs, jimmy johns lunches, road trips across the state, late night tear outs, and some unexpected rainy days, she was right by my side doing anything she could to make the clients happy. I’m so grateful for her and very blessed she chose to assist me while simultaneously working to grow her own business. Just this year, I was able to rely on her to coordinate in my place when I was on maternity leave.

The wedding community truly is that - a community. Find the people that help boost you, both personally and professionally, and nurture those relationships. That’s how you become successful.

Kenzie - grateful doesn’t even begin to cut it. ❤️
