Meagan Nolan I cannot wait for your wedding!!!

Last weekend I did a wedding in Orange County, and it was awesome to be feeling "normal" again. And then the plumbing all backed up and then back up again 2 hours later.
Never before have I had to announce to guests (175!!!) which "number" they could do there and which "number" they had to go next door to the neighbor's house for.

But you know what? After rescheduling 3 times because of Covid, all the quarantining, the caterer coming late, big toddler drama, the mom's shoe breaking, and finally FOUR plumber visits, nobody really cared. Not the guests, hosting family, or happy couple. All were mellow, all were happy!

2020-2021 really reminded us what matters. ❤

I cannot get on board with this new notion that bridesmaids have to take out a second mortgage in order to support a bride’s whims.

Besides seeing A LOT of blushy pink lately, I have also noticed a couple of venues pop up more than once and I like what I am seeing...I can't take any credit for these weddings, but I'd sure like to connect with both places. They look new and different! What do you think?
