About last night…

Boy do we love a good black and white moment.

We love a good welcome bag and they don’t have to be difficult. Just pick a few local treats or some of your favorite snacks along with a little information about your wedding day and local attractions and voila! P.S. a little packet of ibuprofen for the next day never hurt anyone! 🍸

Last night was a dream…

Room reveals are still one of my favorite parts of wedding day. To see the reactions of our couples when they get to see their reception space after all the months of planning is such a special moment. It’s even more special when you get to also call your bride a friend. ♥️

Yay for Friday’s! This week has been tough for everyone. With Covid updates and the overall uneasiness of what the next few months will bring l’m reminded of Tiffany and Garrett’s micro wedding last month and the pure joy that culimanted after almost 3 years (and two postponements) of planning. This perfectly captured moment says it all.

26/10/2020

Change can be hard. All the adjustments we are all having to make during this time can wear on even our most positive and secure couples. Things may look different but when you have a rockstar team behind you the end result can sometimes exceed the original plan. Tiffany and Garrett’s backyard fete did not disappoint. AND did I mention I’m a sucker for a black and white palette.

Sometimes the details are just so necessary.
