My design process always begins with art. Art in any form - fine art, nature, culture, music, fashion. I like to begin with a singular inspiration and work to understand it. To take it apart and put it back together. Understand the history behind it. Contemplate not only the visuals but how it makes me feel.
For our editorials at I am doing just that. We’ve chosen three inspiring art movements as our focus for the three editorials. Right now, I’m studying the history, the philosophies, the patterns and pulling my ideas together into a cohesive design that speaks to the modern old soul and Francophile.
We’re sourcing from iconic tabletop brands, commissioning custom linens, working with beyond talented fashion designers, and antiquing pieces to bring this all to life. If I’m being honest, I’m a bit awestruck with what we have in store and I truly can’t wait to share how it all comes together.

Kicking off our 2023 recap with this stunning day from one of the most special properties I’ve ever worked at. is a step back in history and managed to perfection - perfect for an intimate wedding group.
This shoot was designed with opulent neutrals in mind. We used tones of lavender, plum, and caramel but in a way that read neutrally and added to the opulence of the setting.
Our stunning bride wore and carried a petite sweet pea and hellebore bouquet perfect for the romantic design. A stunning ceremony facing the garden, cigarette boat ride on Lake Como, and dinner in the manicured gardens of Villa Sola? It doesn’t get much better than that.

Whether you're sharing your vows before the ceremony in private, or during the ceremony in front of your dearest friends and family, we love the idea of writing them down in a special vow book that matches your wedding aesthetic. Not only does this provide a special detail for flatlays but will be a keepsake for years to come.

It is impossible to talk about Château du Grand-Lucé without acknowledging the undeniable grandeur and luxury of the property. From the pristine gardens to the artfully restored rooms, the gourmet cuisine to the white glove service -- everything sits in perfect harmony in a balance of modern luxury and neoclassical romanticism.
For Molly and I, luxury is important. We hold châteaux to a high standard and have come to expect a certain level of luxury as part of the job. We have built our careers around creating in beautiful places and experiencing firsthand the luxury that France has to offer. What happens when two francophiles get together to create a luxe retreat? See for yourselves.
-Three nights private accommodations at Château du Grand-Lucé April 22 - 25, 2024 (en suite bathroom, twice-daily maid service). Don't miss the soaking tub, heated floors, or Buly products!
- Welcome cocktail reception. Imagine a candlelit gourmet night filled with amazing food and drinks, and incredible fashion, all in an unforgettable garden setting. Oui for me!
- Breakfasts, lunches, gourmet dinners, and non-alcoholic beverages. Who could resist a morning pain-au-chocolat while watching the Loire Valley mist give way to the morning?
- Destination wedding business education including marketing, branding, networking, flatlay styling, and more. Not to mention the presence of Mikyla and Shasta of Cultivé there to educate alongside us!
- Three days of beautiful editorial photoshoots with designer attire and custom details galore. Think Dior plates, Schumacher linens, and bespoke couture.

I started my wedding planning career ten years ago with nothing but an internship and a big dream.
Through many seasons of navigating this industry, making mistakes, and evolving my brand, I have created the life I have always dreamed of. My days are spent working with talented creatives and my summers are spent creating all across the world. I took my big dream and turned it into a beautiful life.
With nearly a decade of working in the luxury destination space, I can’t wait to share my experiences, strategy, and perspective on entering the luxury destination space and making an impact. The life you have always dreamt of is waiting for you! I’ve spent years as a designer for luxury events, a mentor for wedding creatives, and an advocate for creating the life of your dreams. I am so incredibly excited to have the opportunity to host you for three life-changing days of pampering, learning, and beauty at the Luxury Photography Workshop from April 22-25, 2024 at Château du Grand-Lucé.
Yes, Molly Carr and I will be your educators and are excited to share all that we have learned from our many years of experience, trials, and tribulations, but we are equally as excited to spend three days with you in our beloved France as your friends, your tour guides, and your trusted confidants.
Additionally, we are thrilled to share that the incredible Ink & Press Co. and Shasta Bell Calligraphy of Cultivé will be on-site to educate you on the art of styling.
