Fun fact: every piece of gold and brass decor in the Once Upon A Table inventory (and all of our mirrors) exists because of one person.
❤️ Women Who Build Our Community Series: Part 4 ❤️
Today I want to talk about Andreanna Lane, someone I consider to be foundational in building the Once Upon A Table community. Before we had a logo, a pending trademark, a Board, or an incorporated nonprofit, Andi trusted me with her vision for her wedding. She was one of the first nearlyweds who signed a contract with what would become Once Upon A Table.
Not only that, but she is a very talented photographer (Lane & Light Photography) and we have her to thank for much of the content creation and inventory photos/videos in our infancy. She is a delight to work with, and a delight in general. She also helped me understand the value of bartering services in the wedding industry, and we want to continue offering those options whenever possible.
This is my favorite picture from her whole wedding album because it candidly captures how happy she felt in that moment.
