As a coordinator, I love when couples bring pieces of their story into the wedding day. 💍✨

For this celebration, the groom's family shared a meaningful detail from his homeland of Mauritius—a small handwoven basket that carried their rings down the aisle. Such a simple, beautiful piece, yet it held so much significance, weaving together heritage and love in the most heartfelt way.

Details like this are what make each wedding so personal and unforgettable, and I feel honored to witness them come to life. 🧺💕

There’s a quiet kind of magic in the moments before a ceremony begins. 🌿✨ Chairs stand ready beneath a canopy of trees, light filters through the leaves, and the soft glow of string lights hints at the celebration to come.

For me, this is one of my favorite moments as a planner—the calm before the joy. I take a deep breath, knowing every detail has found its place, and I can almost hear the laughter, the vows, and the love that will soon fill the air. It’s a privilege to stand in this stillness, knowing the space is ready to hold memories that will last a lifetime.

This cake deserves its own spotlight ✨

Soft buttercream, a dreamy cascade of fresh blooms by Serendipity Floral Designs, and just the right amount of whimsy—this beauty was almost too pretty to cut (almost).

A sweet showstopper for an even sweeter couple 💐💍

Every couple deserves a quiet corner of romance on their wedding day—and this sweetheart table was just that. ✨

Nestled beneath a canopy of florals and lights, Jennifer and Steven’s table was more than a beautiful centerpiece—it was a place to pause, breathe, and soak in the joy of being newly married.

Surrounded by love (and the most stunning floral arch!), they shared laughs, clinked glasses, and stole a few sweet moments just for the two of them.

In wedding planning, the "first look" between a bride and groom is a deeply moving moment filled with anticipation and excitement. This intimate encounter is more than just a photo opportunity; it allows the couple to connect privately, away from guests, and express emotions freely.

As the groom sees his bride for the first time, the world seems to pause, and emotions like tears and laughter flow. This moment highlights their love and commitment, creating a cherished memory.

The first look is a poignant reminder of the true essence of weddings—the love between two people and the start of their journey together.

A floral dream come true at Sycamore Bend Estate 🌸🐴

This ceremony in front of the stables was nothing short of magical. We brought the bride and groom’s vision to life with soft, romantic blooms, a breathtaking floral arch, and perfectly arranged seating. The stables made the perfect backdrop — elegant, peaceful, and full of charm.

Planning and coordinating this day was such a joy, and we’ll be swooning over this setup for a long time 💍✨
