Take me back to September 😭❤️❤️❤️

Annabelle and Chris were guests at a wedding that I was decorating in 2024 and it was honestly serendipitous that I stuck around for dinner and got to sit and talk with them. Little did I know, we would begin planning their wedding shortly after!

Planning from afar (NM ➡️ FL) has its own challenges but we made such a great team doing this together and ensuring their elegant estate wedding was out of their dreams.

The day was so wonderful, even when it rained, but we powered through and from the packed dance floor I think everybody had a pretty amazing time celebrating these two lovebirds! Peep their sweet pup Kahlua who walked down the aisle with them 🐾

Miss you guys and I am so so honored that I got to know you ❤️

Couldn’t have done it without this killer vendor team!!!

There’s something special about the anticipation on a wedding day - the quiet, electric moments while getting ready with your people, the deep breaths before a first look, the mix of nerves and excitement as you prepare to share your love in front of everyone who means the most. It’s a feeling, an energy, that can’t quite be replicated.

You could feel that energy surrounding Michelle and Matt all day long. The love and support from their friends and family was undeniable. Their faith was so present - it was clear the Lord was right there with them. The way they show up for each other is such a beautiful reflection of two becoming one.

They are deeply, deeply loved by their people, and not to mention, this was one of the most LIT weddings I’ve ever experienced! A celebration in every sense. You guys were an absolute blast 🧡

Also can we talk about how truly ethereal Michelle is?! ANGELIC. ✨

Btw, I love putting the couples first dance songs on here 🎵

Ugh take me back to this day for Nicki and Justin!!!! The coolest couple, best vibes ever, the funniest and kindest family and friends!

We basically planned this day in a matter of two months because these two are busy busy bees. But at the end of the day, they just wanted to celebrate with their loved ones! While there was no ceremony, they still had a killer Guns n Roses grand entrance and all eyes on them.

Not to mention dancing to All I Want For Christmas during their May wedding because of an inside joke (you know i was belting it out too) and finishing the night off heading to La Reina lobby bar at @elreycourt

They’re soooo obsessed with each other and that’s all any one could ever ask for. So happy I got to be part of this special day 🖤

After quite the hiatus from Instagram, we’re back baby 🤍

WITH a baby. And a goal to get back to what I love: down to earth weddings that feel intimate and easy. 2026 and 2027 will look a little different, but full of love nonetheless!

These two beautiful souls have been featured in @rockymtnbride 🤍

This small wedding was so perfectly intimate, intricately thought out, and full of such deep love from Julia + Andrew’s family. From the details to the cuisine, the music and toasts, (their sweet pup Juni so very happy to see her mom and dad get married) - every element was curated to perfection to celebrate J+A’s love!

Layering details in your wedding table decor creates depth and visual interest, transforming a simple setup into a stunning design. By mixing textures, colors, and heights—such as elegant candles, stylish chargers, textured napkins, varied glassware, and lush floral arrangements—you can create a dynamic and inviting atmosphere.

These thoughtful layers not only elevate the overall aesthetic but also leave a lasting impression on your guests, making each place setting feel personalized and special.

It’s the little touches that truly wow!

Nicole + Ian

🤍🤍🤍

First wedding of the year was fittingly on Valentine’s Day weekend! The sweetest couple, with the most adorable high energy daughter and kindest friends and family. Watching them share their vows at the altar and then proceed to simply laugh the whole evening and naturally gravitate towards each other the entire night was magical. Soulmates are a real thing my friends.

“All because they swiped right.”

reminiscing on this gorgeous natural green wedding vibe for Brianna and Dalton last year 💚

Also check out those ceramic candle votive holders - the brides sweet momma made 150 of these that could be taken home for guests at the end of the night. SO PERFECT!

I was literally making this infographic yesterday and then @thevendortablepod released this topic today 😂 SOOO naturallyyy I had to use their sound lol

If you know me or have worked with me, you know that I will not sugar coat things. So the only time I hold your hand is when i say to “Take this with a Grain. Of. Salt.” EVERYONE’S WEDDING PRIORITIES ARE DIFFERENT.

You want a backyard wedding? GO FOR IT! But understand the work that goes into it. You’re building a wedding venue FROM SCRATCH.

We recommend a guest count 50 or fewer to make this a lot more palatable. But just remember… it’s not always cheaper, it’s not always easier.
