Today marks 73 years since Martin Luther King, Jr. and Coretta Scott were married on her parents’ lawn in Marion, Alabama. We are grateful for their union, which profoundly impacted the world.

"My wife was always stronger than I was through the struggle... In the darkest moments, she always brought the light of hope."

“The term other half aptly fit Martin and me. In fact, we were more than that. I often felt as if we were one heartbeat, one soul.”

I love a good dinner party. It's a real pleasure to make people feel welcomed and for them to leave well-fed physically and mentally.

I like to add something unexpected -- like interesting conversation starters or this cool silverware, all beautifully photographed by Khrystina Steib.

Khrystina just shared the sweetest elopement on her page. Definitely reach out to her to capture yours.

This early collaboration with Unspeakable Joy Luxe Rentals, Chef Celeste Gill and with Fresh N Fancy Floral providing the floral gifts, gave the singles & newlyweds a chance to chat with elders married 50 years!

We are a part of a community. We're not meant to figure out life all alone.

In honor of Chef Celeste Gill's Meet and Greet and Book Signing at 6pm on Wednesday, June 17, at the Goodwood Main Library, I am taking it all the way back to our very first collaboration at 520 Spain Street!

These snapshots had so many of my favorite elements for elevating an intimate event:
• Plenty of delicious food
• Upgraded chairs
• An ideal venue with natural light
• Personal touches, like including the honoree's own silverware, simply arranged roses and gifts for the guests

An intimate home dinner does not have to be ordinary.

A look at this short-notice anniversary dinner with a cluster of frilly DIY carnations.
