Words can't express how incredible Friday night was. It truly was a family affair as I had the honor of planning and styling the wedding of my cousin {La'-Ruth} AND new cousin {Cornelius}. It was so incredibly beautiful at breathtaking Lowndes Grove in downtown Charleston, SC.

Both La'-Ruth's Dad and my dad were missed physically but we know they were present in spirit. They truly would have been so overjoyed and proud of this moment.

Here are just a few photos I captured before one of the GREATEST receptions EVER (thanks to DJ D Dubb)

Thank you to Patrick Properties Hospitality Group for the outstandingly amazing service. Every team member took such excellent care of everyone and made sure this was the wedding of La'-Ruth and Cornelius's dreams.

Thank you to Southern Chic Event Rentals, LLC for the gorgeous estate table and chairs for the bridal party.

Thank you to Snyder Rentals for the tent and all rental items.

We truly had the greatest vendor team lineup and I can't wait to share more details to give them each their praises. ❤

Congratulations to La'-Ruth & Cornelius!!!
I love you both more than I could ever say!!! ❤

Details on my Caribbean inspired Christmas tree... it's definitely all about the and pineapples for me!! Thanks to my family in Trinidad and Tobago🇹🇹 for always providing me with the best fabrics for my projects. Merry Christmas everyone!!

19/12/2020

Inspired by my Trinidad and Tobago 🇹🇹❤ roots, I designed one of my Christmas trees to show my Caribbean pride and love. Christmas is about family and family is EVERYTHING to me. There is no better way of sharing in the love of your family than showcasing your culture and highlighting the beauty of who you are. The holidays are a special time for me filled with both Caribbean and Southern deliciousness, traditions, and music with my family. I am who I am because of my family. Without them there is no me. Wishing you all a beautiful Christmas and holiday season full of family, love, laughter, joy, hope and peace. Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas.

It's the love that radiates from the inside out for me. A love that illuminates everything around them. A love that will conquer anything.

I can't help but smile seeing these gorgeous photos captured by Carolina Rain Photography LLC for Ann and Tim's intimate wedding at Wentworth Mansion. I was truly blessed and grateful to have their trust to design the florals for their wedding day. Ann and Tim are not only beautiful together but they are truly wonderful and gracious people.

Healing Wounds & Bridging Gaps: An Honest Conversation About Race & Allyship in the Wedding Industry

02/06/2020

01/06/2020

I have been trying to find the words for the last few days to properly express my emotions during this time of unrest in our country.
I am BLACK.
I am a BLACK WOMAN.
I am a BLACK BUSINESS OWNER.
I am tired. I am exhausted. I am angry. I am hurt. I am broken. I have prayed. I have cried. I have clenched my fist in anger. I have watched in despair the absence of love. I have listened to the silence of leadership. I have felt the overwhelming exhaustion of multitasking the trauma of life dealing with a pandemic, violence, chaos, running a business and still trying to live a personal life all at the same time.
●
Yes, we love to see the beautiful but how can I share it right now when there are actual people in this world who do not see the beauty in my skin color. There are people who can't see my heart or my passion for what I do because I don't look like them. I have walked in venues to do events where I was judged for being a black event designer and hearing the whispers and having my every move watched to see what kind of work I will do. Only to be met with shock that it is tasteful and elegant. One time, I even had an attendee of an event think I was stealing when I went to pick up my rentals after an event I designed. Can you imagine?? I was actually being accused of stealing MY own things even though I was clearly wearing my company logo on my shirt. ALL BECAUSE OF THE COLOR OF MY SKIN. These actually REALLY happened and are just a few instances. I have other stories to tell but now is not the time - better yet, I shouldn't even have these stories to tell.
●
So... I can't for the life of me post about the joy of celebrating events and choosing to find the joy right now without expressing what is really going on internally with me first. I know a lot of people say don't mix personal thoughts, politics or religion in your business but I NEED to do just that. I can't sit and hide what I look like externally. I can't take my skin off like an outfit, so why should I be silenced by the emotions of my heart internally. If you support me, then great but if you don't I understand that too. If I lose followers or potential and current clients then so be it. People who look like me are dying... they are being MURDERED!!! Their blood staining the streets and the hearts of this nation just for the color of their skin. As a descendant of slaves, whose 4th great grandmother, a slave was just honored last year with a bridge named in her memory for her courage in turmoil - I must pick up the mantle of her spirit and shine the light of truth on injustices. I will use my platform to speak out about righting the wrongs done to the people who look just like me. Silence is not an option. This is centuries and generations of pent up pain and torment that we can no longer take anymore. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. I don't have all the words to articulate my emotions right now nor do I have all the answers to solve the problem going forward but what I do know is...
▪︎Being black is not a crime
▪︎Being black does not make us less than
▪︎Being black does not mean we have no value
▪︎Being black does not mean that we can be hunted and targeted
▪︎We want to live.
▪︎We want to love.
▪︎We want to breathe.
