As our season starts to wind down we’re starting to look inwards a bit more - over the next few months we’ll be revisiting and revising packages, finessing our systems and SOPs, and hopefully hiring a couple more team members! 🤩✨

One of the things we’re planning to work on is our DESIGN package. This is included in Partial Planning and Full Planning and can be added on to Month-of Coordination. We’re working on some exciting off-season projects related to design so that YOU can have a fun + streamlined experience and WE can bring your beautiful vision to life! 🎉

Want to know more? Drop a 💛 in the comments, and we’ll shoot you a DM! 😚💕

The people have spoken!! Can’t wait for our second ever Vendor Hang in a few weeks 🥰✨

This is for: anyone who works in the wedding industry (planners, florists, DJs, photogs + videographers, stationers, venue managers, etc!!).

There’s no real agenda except to just gather, connect and ask each other questions. Last time we talked about everything from mindset and mental health to contracts and more administrative things.

Come one come all! Drop a cute lil 💛 if you’ll be there!! 😻✨

✨ BIG ANNOUNCEMENT!! ✨

Some of you may know that I was a potter before I was a wedding planner, and clay has been a big part of my day (and life!) for the past decade or so. I love being in the studio, plugged into whatever I want to listen to, spinning earth. It’s therapy. Truly.

Last year I made the tough decision to leave the community studio I had been a member of since 2014. With weddings and flowers also going on in FULL force post-pandemic, I didn’t have enough brain space to also think about firing schedules, shrinkage rates and glaze combinations.

It’s been almost two years since I’ve touched clay. And I’m here to say, enough!! My body, my soul have had a long enough break, and I’m SO EXCITED to announce that I’ll be returning to my pottery practice this Winter when our season starts winding down.

What’s so great about this for you, you ask? Well, aside from this hopefully inspiring you to also spend time doing what lights you up, this post is to let you know that I am going to start designing a CUSTOM line of vessels for our floral clients to rent for their events!! YES! 😍💛✨

This is something I’ve been wanting to offer for a long time, and I recently decided it was time to do it. In full transparency this post is also for you to hold me accountable so I actually do the thing and don’t just melt into the couch for the entire off season 😅

I’m excited to show you what I create. And more than that, I’m excited to create again ✨

Today we celebrate and wish you a luminous Mid-Autumn Festival filled with moonlit dreams and sweet reunions! This is a time for family reunion in many Asian communities when people illuminate lanterns, enjoy mooncakes, honor our ancestors, partake in special moon-viewing parties, and enjoy a delicious feast.

We LOVE this time of year, and we adore doing weddings during this time as well! The light, the colours, changing leaves - we’re obsessed. Not to mention it’s the perfect time to gather loved ones to celebrate in community.

May today be a radiant and delightful celebration of Chuseok, Tsukimi, and all Mid-Autumn Festivities! 🌕🏮✨

Tell us, how are you celebrating today? 🍂✨

One thing we always tell our clients is that we want their events to be AUTHENTIC, true to them, and reflect them and their love. For example, Jennie + Adam love camping and exploring, so they referred to each of their tables as “camps” and their menus said “camp provisions”! 😍✨ We love little ways like this to make your day feel more unique.

What are you planning to do (or what did you do) to add some personal touches to your big day? Tell us in the comments! 💛✨

Virginia + Joe, Happy first Anniversary! 💛✨

It has been a treat and an honour to get to know you two better even after your wedding. The way you two show up for each other and the people in your lives inspires me. And V, I’m so grateful that you expressed interest in working together because in you I’ve found an amazing team member and friend 🥹💛✨

Love you both, and here’s to many, many more happy celebrations together! ✨

Q: What’s one thing we ALWAYS do on our clients’ big day?
A: We make sure you EAT!!

You’ve invested in a delicious meal for your guests, you need to get some of that in your belly too! We will check in with you periodically to make sure you not only have a drink in hand but that you also are stuffing your face with food :)

Hire us if you love food and want to work with a team who also LOVES food and understands the importance of taking time to slow down and eat a meal, even (and especially!) on your wedding day! 💛✨

Allow me disrupt our regularly scheduled programming - this deserves a permanent place on this feed! 🤩✨

Today we hosted our first ever VENDOR HANG, and oh my goodness, I didn’t realise how much I needed this. It was work, but it wasn’t. It felt more like therapy or self care. We talked about work things, made connections, met IRL for the first time. My cup overfloweth 😭💕 We will ABSOLUTELY be doing this again! 😻🎈

Thank you to each of these wonderful humans who came out today and helped me build this community 🙏🏼💛✨

✨About florals✨

We love creating colourful and contemporary designs for our amazing couples 🌾✨

If you want citrus, other fruits or mushrooms in your bouquet or centerpieces, we will probably get along really well.

If you want a perfectly round, white bouquet of roses, we’re probably not the best fit.

We know that florals are a luxury item - we understand the sticker shock that often comes with wedding flowers, and we’re here to help you navigate your floral budget as well as talk about creative ways to reuse or repurpose your florals! We LOVE repurposing!

Also, we DO NOT use floral foam! It’s toxic - for florists and the environment.

I can’t express how thrilled I am with these team photos by and how fu***ng PROUD I am of my team and the little community we’re building. I love each of these badass women so much, and I know you will too. Maggie, Jennie, and Erin we missed you!!

We are daughters of immigrants, we are immigrants, we are teachers and caregivers, we are creatives. We respect ourselves and each other.

Proud to be your little leader, Team Sachi & Maja 🥹💕

✨NEW OFFERING✨

(It’s technically not new, but realised we haven’t mentioned it here so thought we would!)

Have you heard of a day-of CONTENT CREATOR? Yep, it’s a thing. And we offer this as an add-on to any of our planning packages!

First let us clarify: this option is NOT a replacement for professional videography. It can be added to any wedding, whether you have a videographer or not.

BENEFITS of having a day-of content creator:
✨ raw footage of ceremony vows, toasts, first dances delivered to your inbox that evening!
✨ candid shots and short videos taken by one of our team members (someone who can get that perfect shot for the gram 😉)
✨ you don’t need to worry about which friend got the best angle of cake cutting - because it was us! 😇
✨ custom reel that we make for you of details + highlights 😍

We offer this as an hourly add-on to any package, and many of our couples decide to go for it. Why? Because it allows guests to just be PRESENT with you on the day-of 💛✨

Interested in day-of content creation? Slide into the DMs 😘💌

RAFFLE FOR MAUI

The wildfires in Maui are now the deadliest in US history. Residents have been displaced and need food, clothing, and so much more.

My heart continues to break. I cannot sit idly by and do nothing. Since I can’t physically be there, I’ll be holding a raffle. DM me with a receipt of your donation of any amount, and you’ll be entered to win a beautiful, medium-sized floral arrangement* I’ll announce the winner this Thursday.

See tags in the photo for trusted organizations to donate to.

*must pick up in Berkeley on Friday 8/18

OK, maybe I’m sounding like a broken record but it is SO important to consider the size AND shape of your dinner tables when talking to your floral designer about centerpieces!

Each wedding is so different: rounds, long tables, a mix? What size are they? What style dinner service are you having? And also, what’s your budget for flowers? So many questions!

Here’s what we generally recommend:
🌾 a medium arrangement for a 60” round table
🌾 a large arrangement for a 72” round table
🌾bud vases, small arrangements or a mix of both for long tables

☝🏼keep in mind a family style dinner will need more space on the tables (so, less florals and decor)
☝🏼talk to your floral designer about how you can get creative with repurposing any ceremony florals to the reception!

Tell us in the comments, are you a fan of a round table or a long table? 🤔🌾
