a moment for the table 🐆 💋 🍸

I don’t think I’ve ever been more obsessed with ruched velvet linens. It adds a coziness, or in this case, something sultry.🔥

Is it just me, or is it getting HOUAH HOUAH HOUAH HOUAH up in here.

“So a tiger, cigar, and cherry cake walk into a bar…”

🐅🔥🍒

Okay, there’s no good punch line. (Unless you have one for me.)

But there is a good suggestion: morph things you love/that interest you into your wedding design. It’s funky, it’s random, it doesn’t have to make sense. What it IS, is a collection of you and bae reflected.

“Sydney!!!!!! THANK YOU THANK YOU!! You were AMAZING! From the moment I met you on Facetime to the wedding day, we knew we picked the right coordinator. Everything came out perfectly with no issues and if there were any issues we did not know about it. It was such a stress-FREE day and I hope every couple considers you for their wedding. Other vendors came to us and said they were adding you to their list of vendors recommendations and I love that for you! You deserve all the flowers! Thank you for being apart our day and helping it go so smooth!” - D&C 🖤

“Hire Sydney!!! Sydney is an incredible wedding coordinator. She kept me sane throughout this process, she is so calming and bright, and is ready to roll with anything that comes her way. Her and her team went above and beyond on our day and made us feel like our day was perfect. She helped us calmly make adjustments when the weather wasn’t cooperating, handled unruly guests, and even brought out her own dog toy to get our dogs to behave for pictures. Sydney recommended multiple vendors that we ended up booking and provided us with very helpful planning resources. She checked in regularly throughout the planning process and answered so many questions. Our day would not have gone as well as it did if it weren’t for Sydney and her team, we cannot recommend her enough.”

And I so, so loved supporting you E&B! So many congrats! 🥰

Venue Spotlight | Hotel Magdalena 🍒

Specs:
- Capacity: 150 Reception | 85 Seated
- 4,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor space

My First Impressions About A Hotel Magdalena:
1. While you’re in the middle of a bustling city, I love that the hotel feels so secluded and nestled away. Summer house vibes, a stunning pool, elegant eats, greenery for days, what more could you ask for? However, if you want to jump back into the cityscape, you’re just steps away from accessing South Congress and all the colorful shops, restaurants, and nightlife that come with it.
2. This place is just so… COOL. You can tell the designers delicately handpicked every aspect of the hotel – from colorfully striped robes you’ll find in your suite to the iconic Summer House glass fish bottle.
3. When it comes to event flow, they’ve got it down. The flow from the ceremony site to the reception space is *chef’s kiss*. More to come on that next.

The Layout:
Picture this — ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception all in one seamless spot. Having a Hotel Magdalena Wedding means effortlessly keeping your guests together (without wondering too far like at some venues) but still allowing them breathing space. Your ceremony begins on the lush green lawn tucked within the hotel. From here, your guests exit the ceremony aisle into cocktail hour at the back of the lawn and patio area. Once your photos are all wrapped up, it’s time to transition into the reception space that connects from the lawn and patio.

The greenspace and event room are fairly neutral, making it easy to customize the areas with your bold, colorful ideas or to match it with a classic, neutral personality.

But, most importantly, I’m obsessed with the intricate wooden ceiling within the walls of the reception space.

✨✨✨

Sweet words from C+T:
“Sydney came highly recommended by our venue and that recommendation held true! It can be hard to find a planner/coordinator that is detail oriented, down to earth, calming, down for a great time, and affordable. Sydney was always there for positivity, to lend her expertise and advise and I have no doubt our wedding day went off without a hitch because of her and all the unnoticed things she was doing behind the scenes. She matched our goofy personalities well and truly understood who we were and what we were going for on our big day. Hiring her is the best decision you can make for your planning process!”

Adored supporting you two! Cheers to the Jacksons! ✨

Was the flow from ceremony to reception smooth? Is there enough getting ready space for my party? My friends, I’ve got your back! I coordinated a Camp Lucy wedding and cannot wait to share my experience there! ❤️

“Sydney was an absolute joy to work with! My new husband and I are both anxious people, but her laid back attitude and bright personality really helped to set us at ease. She was great at keeping us on track, letting us know what we needed when, and helping us gauge how much to stress over certain aspects. It’s hugely helpful to have a professional tell you when you can relax, haha.

We’re lucky to have very kind and pleasant people, but Sydney also took the time to make sure we had contingency plans in case anything went awry. Even as someone who didn’t need it, it was nice to hear her options and plans for dealing with difficult guest situations. She was very supportive of us as a couple, and I have no doubt she could have handled trouble had it arisen.

10/10 professional skill, but also a lovely person who made us laugh more than once a long the way. If my husband or I got hit by a bus in the future, she’d be my top pick to work a potential round 2!”

LOLz on the last part. 😂 Congrats K+B! :)

A moment for keeping it ✨classic✨.

Something I admired about Mackenzie and Lane’s celebration was a classic black and white palette, BUT, their flowers made it modern in whimsical style.

Who says classic can’t be brought to the present? 🤍🖤
