Over the 14+ years we’ve been doing weddings, it’s always fun to hear how our couple’s families are expanding. In more recent years, we’ve added some of our coordinators, assistants, and “frienders” (friend + vendor) as contributors to that list! To help start out this new year on a high note, here are just a…

As we prepare to enter 2022, the Japanese proverb nicely sums up our feelings toward the past two years and the year coming.

Honestly, there aren’t words more joyful to a wedding planner’s ear than those. Because of the pandemic, meeting with Paige and Matthew in person came rather late in our planning process. But, when we did, I knew immediately I liked them. I also knew that their event was going to have to be a tad…

Chassidy and Philip met like many couples do nowadays, through a dating app. On their first date they bonded over the fact that neither of them like beer.

“Any day spent with you is my favorite day. So, today is my new favorite day.” – Winnie the Pooh It only took 14 months but we’re finally getting back to what we love to do! And, what better way than to start with the loviest (I know that’s not a word but I think…

That is 100% not what I think of when I think of the color yellow. I think of the warm sun, lemons on the tree, blooming daffodils, Easter eggs. Yellow is an easy way to, all at the same time, add light, brightness, and warmth to a room. Here are just a few ways some…
