Guess what day it is?! Yes, it is hump day BUT….it’s also the day I booked my 4th wedding for 2026!!!!

May 30th, 2026 has been reserved, and this one is very special to me. A few years ago, I had the pleasure of coordinating a friend’s wedding and now, I have the honor of coordinating her step son’s big day! Referrals are the absolute best, especially when they come from those who have been with me from the start of launching my business and really know what I am capable of! ❤️

Wooooo! Two days, two weddings booked!

September 26th, 2026 is now reserved, and I can’t wait to make this couple’s special day magical! ❤️

HUGE shout out to Picture Perfect NWI Photo Booth Rentals for the amazing referral! Truly appreciate the support! ☺️

Can’t wait to help this bride and her fiancée bring their vision to life ❤️

This past weekend, I had the absolute pleasure of coordinating a wedding for a SUPER SWEET family at the Barrelhouse Venue in Michigan City! The weather was so perfect, the ceremony space was insane, and this couple’s family and friends were so fun and kind…they made me feel more like a guest than a vendor 🥰

I was hired to assist with creating the timeline, decorate the ceremony space and interior of the venue, coordinate the other vendors, and ensure everything ran smoothly. Things went off without a hitch, especially thanks to my assistant that day, my husband! Haha Huge shout out to him helping me make this couple’s vision come together!

The couple put so many personal touches on their special day, including: mini candles as favors (which smell amazing by the way), photos capturing their love for fishing together and their adorable baby boy, ginormous ferns that the bride GREW HERSELF 😱, a Polish band, and handwritten vows that were so heartfelt I got a little misty. Sean found his perfect catch out of all the fish in the sea and Melissa found the captain to her first mate! 🐟

I got to work with some awesome vendors, which always makes the job so much fun
Venue: Barrelhouse The Venue
Catering: Classic Catering & Events

This past weekend, I was so incredibly honored to coordinate a wedding for such an awesome couple at The Shed in Wanatah, IN! I coordinated the rehearsal the night before, helped decorate the venue (interior), decorated the ceremony space (exterior), worked with the vendors, and assisted with every detail from start to finish on Saturday.

The venue was gorgeous…the bride, groom, and their son all looked absolutely amazing…the skies were filled with sunshine…the day was PERFECT! 🤩

I want to give a special shout out to ALL the vendors I worked with. Everyone came together to create such a magical day for this couple, their families, and their friends. From the officiant to the photographer, from the DJ to the photobooth, from the bartenders to the caterers….and the venue’s staff went above and beyond to make this couple’s vision come to life.

I also want to say a HUGE THANK YOU to my past client Breyana for referring me to this sweet couple. Referrals and positive reviews are what I pride myself on and it truly means the world to me that clients recommend me to those they know! ❤️

CONGRATULATIONS to the new Mr. and Mrs. Stone! Wishing you a lifetime of happiness! 🥰

Last weekend I had the absolute pleasure of coordinating a wedding for the sweetest couple, Breyana and Zach! 💍

It was 2 full days of set up. The couple (especially the bride and her mom) did a crazy amount of DIY decor and details, which allowed for so many personal touches. Friday I coordinated the rehearsal, and then we headed to Butterfield Pavilion in Valparaiso to set up the reception. It was amazing to see that all the friends and family pitched in to make the couple’s vision come together.

Their ceremony was at a private property in Valparaiso on Saturday, and it was absolutely stunning! I told the bride that I had been manifesting good weather for their outdoor nuptials and it definitely paid off! Sunshine all day ☀️. The couple exchanged their own hand written vows, and you could LITERALLY feel the love surrounding them as their friends and family came together to celebrate these two amazing people.

It was a full day of running around making sure everyone was where they needed to be and sticking to the timeline, coordinating all the various vendors, putting the finishing touches on all the decor, and breaking everything down at the end of the festivities.

Huge shoutout to my allstar intern, Chesney! Couldn’t have done it without her. And I was so happy I got to work with my favorite catering crew (MISSION BBQ - Jamie Lencioni). They ALWAYS go above and beyond to make sure everything is perfect, and their food never disappoints!! 🍗

It was a very successful, amazing weekend! Wishing this beautiful couple a lifetime of happiness and best of luck on their new life adventures! So incredibly blessed and grateful that they trusted me to make their dream wedding come to life and be a part of such a magical day!

Can’t believe it was one week ago today that I was able to throw my hubby a surprise 40th birthday! The theme was James Bond- 0040, and the decor and outfits did NOT disappoint! I had the pleasure of working with my favorite sweet treat vendor Victoria's Cake Pops, as well as some brand new vendors (who I would HIGHLY recommend!) Photobooth: Illiana Top PhotoBooths and Champagne Wall: Honey + Sage Charcuterie. It was the perfect night and a great time was had by all! #0040
