Engaged on Valentine’s Day? 💍✨
Your love story deserves a setting just as unforgettable.

Picture saying “I do” in a beautifully restored historic church, where stunning stained glass casts the dreamiest glow and timeless architecture meets modern romance. Clean lines, soft light, and a space filled with meaning. It’s the perfect backdrop for the start of your forever.

Ready to see it in person?

Our four-legged assistant Wally was on duty this morning! 🐶 He helped welcome today’s florist to Monarch for a private event. We think he deserves employee of the month. 😉

Who needs candlelit dinners when you’ve got Allen wrenches and instruction manuals? 🪛 One of us was thrilled about Saturday date night furniture assembly… big shoutout to Cody, Monarch’s handyman, bonus employee, backup cleaner, fix-it man, official chair & table mover, AND my personal work therapist 😂❤️

Office furniture is set up & looks great! Hope everyone is having a great weekend 🦋

🥂✨ Fri-YAY feels! ✨🥂
Nothing says celebration quite like a wedding day cheers! 🥳
Tell us—when you’re at a wedding, what’s your go-to drink? 🍷🍺🍸 A classic glass of champagne? A signature cocktail? Or maybe a cold beer on the dance floor?
At Monarch, we keep things stress-free for you and your guests with our exclusive bar service—so all you have to worry about is raising a glass and celebrating love. 💕

✨💍 Wedding Wednesday 💍✨
Where are my 2026 + 2027 brides at?! 👰🤵 We’ve been getting so many wedding inquiries lately and it has us extra excited for all the love stories we’ll get to celebrate in the years ahead. 🥂
💡 Planning Tip: One of the first (and most important) things to check off your list is your venue! Most couples book their space 12–18 months out (sometimes even earlier for peak dates 👀). So if you’re dreaming of saying “I do” in 2026 or 2027, now’s the perfect time to secure your spot before dates fill up.
👉 Tell us—where are you in your planning process? Just engaged and starting the search, or already building your dream vendor team? Drop a 💍 in the comments if you’re a 26/27 bride!
