✨ An event-free weekend looks a little different around here… and we’re soaking it up! ✨
When you’re a family-owned and operated wedding business, weekends can look a LOT like work. So when we have a rare weekend without an event on the calendar, we try to make the most of it and this weekend has been all about the people and things that matter most. ❤️
🎂 Celebrating some family birthdays
🐾 Taking the family dog on a much-needed Petco run (because apparently he needed a shopping trip, too 😂)
☕ Hitting up 7 Brew with my better half
🎲 Having a game night with friends we haven’t seen in WAY too long
🏃♂️ 🏅 Cheering on a family member for their amazing accomplishment
🎁 And putting together donation raffle baskets for an amazing cause!
Next week is the WJCIA (Wisconsin Juvenile Court Intake Association) Conference, bringing together professionals who work in youth justice and social services. Someone very special to our family serves on the board, so we were more than happy to put together a few raffle baskets and help support the conference and the important work behind it. 💙
One of the things we love most about being a family-owned and operated business is that we get to build something together, but we also get to remember that there is a whole life outside of the business. Family. Friends. Community. The people who cheer us on, keep us grounded, and remind us to slow down once in a while.
And honestly, we think that's an important reminder when it comes to wedding vendors, too.
Wedding vendors are people. ❤️
We're parents, spouses, sons, daughters, siblings, friends, pet parents, community members… and human beings who sometimes give up a LOT of our own family time to be part of the biggest day of someone else's life.
We absolutely LOVE what we do. We love our couples. We love being part of wedding days and helping make them incredible.
But we also believe there's something really important about taking a weekend off, celebrating a birthday, grabbing coffee with your person, laughing with friends, supporting a cause close to your heart, and simply being present with your own family.
Because taking care of the people behind the business is part of taking care of the business, too. ❤️
So here's to the rare event-free weekends and to making them count!
From our family to yours, we hope you're finding a little time to slow down, reconnect, and enjoy the people who make life so good. 🥰
