Introducing, the McClintons!

Jess & Cotter had a STUNNING wedding - every detail was intentional and meaningful to them. From a t-shirt toss, to a custom put put hole, they thought of EVERYTHING. It was an absolute honor to be a part of your day, Mr. & Mrs. McClinton 🤍

I always remind my couples to create a box full of their detail shot items before the wedding day. It makes it so much easier for the photographer to grab the box and create beautiful flat lays, without the stress of collecting all the items to be included.

Items that I recommend to be included are:
- Jewelry (especially your wedding bands!)
- Shoes
- The Groom’s tie
- Invitations/Save the Dates
- Family heirlooms
- Any other details that are important to you! There are no wrong answers!

Hot tip: ask your florist for some extra greenery and buds to include as well!

Why you should hire a wedding coordinator: in a sentence, to make your life EASIER.

1. Stress reduction
Planning a wedding can be overwhelming, and your coordinator acts as your partner throughout the process. They help to alleviate the stress and pressure that comes with the wedding planning process and allow you to focus on getting married, while they focus on the details!

2. Expertise
Wedding coordinators bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise to the table accumulated from the experience they have in the wedding industry. They can assist with the planning process, logistics, and design, which allows for a cohesive event that brings your vision to life.

3. Personalized Assistance
Weddings are not a one size fits all event. Each couple in unique and their wedding should reflect that. Wedding coordinators acknowledge this and create an individualized approach and personalized assistance for each couple tailored to their needs.

Sharing a glimpse of my recent Pinterest pins: envisioning a wedding adorned with textures and neutrals.

During the wedding off season, the work doesn’t stop. I’ve been chatting with so many couples to plan details for their weddings, dreaming up inspiration for current and future clients, and onboarding new clients as we prepare to enter the 2024 wedding season.

If you’re looking for someone to help bring your Pinterest board to life, I’m your girl. Reach out and we can chat 🤍

One of my favorite parts of the wedding design process is stationary and signage. Although they seem like small details, they often play a big role in creating a cohesive design for the day. By including the same elements in all of your signage and stationary, it ensures a consistent and clear theme throughout the entire event!

Your wedding should be a reflection of you and your partner’s relationship. If something isn’t important to you as a couple on your wedding day, skip it! Not interested in a cake cutting? No worries! Would rather have pizza for dinner instead of a fancy 3 course meal? Go for it!

At Olive Rae, we prioritize getting to know our couples and helping them figure out what they want their day to look like. We come up with a plan on how to make the day feel most genuine to each couple, and it’s different for everyone! Each wedding is truly unique and it should be!

If you’re looking for a planner and/or coordinator to help make your day truly unique and reflective of your relationship, reach out! We’d love to chat 🤍

Just popping in to say hey! We’ve have had a busy couple weeks working on a lot of behind the scenes tasks and lots of consult calls! It may be wedding off season, but we’re keeping busy over here at Olive Rae with lots of planning, brainstorming, and creating goals for this year!
