This was the kick off of my Fall wedding season and it was perfection. I couldn’t have asked for a nicer day and nicer clients. Lee and Peter are basically my metro other halves. Lee (an Auburn native) and Peter live in Manhattan and brought some of their city chic to their southern wedding. I adored […]

Lee and Peter: A Summer Auburn Wedding {Moores Mill Club | Auburn, Ala.}

Being a small business gives us such a wonderful opportunity to make relationships with other small business owners. One of our favorite relationships this past year has included ClaireMagnolia – handmade guest books. So, to celebrate this Small Business Saturday, we are giving our new clients who book a planning package between today and Saturday, December 5 one […]

Small Business Saturday with ClaireMagnolia

Generally during weddings it’s always about the bride, but what about the groom? As a woman it’s so easy to forget about the groomsmen and only look at the bridesmaids. However, we can’t forget that the groomsmen are vital to the wedding party too. It’s just as much his day as her’s. After looking at […]

As I considered this post, I couldn’t get past the textures that you get to see in the fall when it comes to celebrations. Weddings are a great time to fit so many new ideas into, but I love thinking about what this season brings to us for all types of celebrating. The simple joy […]

Lelia was my first friend at my first big girl job in Atlanta right out of college. She took me to lunch on my very first day because she heard I worked for an event planning company in college and she thought her college beau, Nick, might be proposing soon. We talked about how she […]

Nick + Lelia: Engagement session in Highlands {Old Edwards Inn, Highlands, NC}

Over the past couple of years I have gained a lot of knowledge on how to be the world’s best and worst bridesmaid. For example, during my first experience as a bridesmaid I didn’t know it was important to stay until the bride and groom made their exit…so instead I went to bed. This is […]

How to be a Bridesmaid: 101

It’s amazing the impact social media has on our lives these days! I first learned about Marija and Will’s destination wedding in Georgia, and their need for a day-of wedding coordinator through a post on a wedding Facebook group made by our sweet friend Natalia Scott Perkins of Tailor & Table. Marija and Will had […]

Marija and Will: A Southern Destination Wedding {Big Canoe, Georgia}

They’re so tiny, yet so wonderful. Ahh, candles. I’m not sure if I can say it enough, but when it comes to weddings I am all about cutting costs. One way I’ve seen brides cut costs in a very discrete way is by using candles to decorate their reception and even their ceremony. Lining the […]

She’s a librarian. He owns Rojo. Together they are the completely chill and super stylish couple, Rachel and Clark. When I first met Rachel I instantly loved her. She has an infectious smile and a warm presence that you can’t help but want to be around and her sense of humor isn’t bad, either. Throw […]
