A new year has a way of inviting reflection, not the kind that asks you to rush forward, but the kind that asks you to arrive more fully where you are.

There is a moment in every wedding day when the world seems to soften, when the breeze settles, the florals move just slightly, and the setting transforms into something more than a backdrop.

Today, I want to talk about intention, not just because it’s a word we hear everywhere, but because I’ve come to believe it truly shapes everything, how we live, how we love, and how we lead.

Because your story deserves more than trends, it deserves intention. It’s Monday, and today, we’re talking about feelings. Speaking of feelings, I hope you’ve had a lovely weekend and found a moment to relax and recharge. Weekends that I’m not working are often spent reconnecting, maybe it’s dinner and wine with a friend, an early […]

Lately, I’ve found myself completely captivated by the beauty of candlelight, especially after working with our dear friends at SoCal Candles, Cher and Macy.There’s just something about it, the way a room transforms when bathed in its glow, how light flickers across glass and linen, softening everything it touches.
