We're finalizing [yes, finalizing] our vendor list for the Portside Holiday Sip & Shop on November 28. Our vendor spots filled fast and we have some crowd favorites, some new vendors and potentially some even bigger news. 😉

In the meantime, tell us - what will you be shopping for as you kick off your holiday shopping? Who do you want to see? What do you want to EAT?

Thank you to all our submissions and, of course, our incredible teachers. We have a VERY limited supply of "back to school" Snackle boxes at Portside One Stop. The perfect way to kick off the school year. Be sure to pick one up before they're gone!

Happy School Year!

Did someone say buh-looon? Or is that just my 1 year old?

We love a good backdrop with balloons to really elevate a party. Check out a few of these that we’ve put up in the last months.

The timeline is the backbone of the wedding day ✨
When it’s realistic, intentional, and built with breathing room, the entire day feels calmer.
Less rushing.�Less confusion.�More presence in the moments that matter most.
This is why timeline management is one of the biggest parts of what I do 🤍

A couple days late… but did someone say America’s birthday party? 🇺🇸✨

If there’s one thing about me, it’s that I love a good theme.
Red, white, and blue outfits ✔️
Festive snack boxes ✔️
Splash pad days ✔️
A 5K ✔️
…and work squeezed in between ✔️

I hope your Fourth was filled with sunshine, good food, and the people you love. ❤️🤍💙
