Heirlooms are mementos or objects with sentimental value, usually passed down through generations and treasured by the owner. They can be borrowed or gifted to the bride or groom, and by including them intentionally in your wedding, they can represent and honor a story, family legacy, or person's heritage. Choosing your "something old" or "something borrowed" is a great place to start.
Read MoreIn event design, we always look to the environment for inspiration, especially in non-traditional venues, and if you know where to look, there are many wedding venues that don’t need much decor. There is something so thrilling about whisking guests away to an unassuming location and to have them be wowed. We have experience with venues of all kinds (and we definitely have our faves), but there are a few locales that are so naturally beautiful or unique, it makes our job much easier.
Read MoreWhen I design a wedding, investing hours, days, months of creativity and passion into every thoughtful detail, I anxiously await the photos for weeks following to see the tangible proof on glorious display. I admire the flatlays and installations, the getting-ready photos and the first look shots, the golden hour portraits and the dolled-up reception room aglow awaiting its guests. But what I have found myself looking for, what gives me all the feels, is this one particular reception photo. And it all started with my own wedding, five years into my career as an event planner.
