A reflection on slowing down, creating with care, and celebrating through intention. The Quiet of November There’s something about November that feels like the quiet before the busyness, the gentle pause before the year exhales. I’m always grateful for these moments of stillness. They offer space to reflect, to breathe, and to notice all the […]

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 […]

In luxury weddings, beauty is expected, but true ease and presence come from the conversations that keep everything aligned. I don’t […]

For me, Mondays are about connection, a chance for you to see who I am beyond weddings and events. As much as I live and breathe weddings and events, my creativity is nurtured in the spaces outside of my work. Inspiration doesn’t come from sitting still, it comes from the world around me.

Sometimes you just have to pause and reflect on the journey. Today is one of those days for me. I’ve had the honor of planning so many weddings, and each one continues to remind me why I do what I do. It’s never just about the logistics, the checklists, contracts, and timelines. Those are important, […]

Yesterday I had lunch with friends, and somehow the topic of luxury came up. I shared what I believe luxury truly means, and it compelled me to share it here with you as well. Luxury is often misunderstood. Many assume it’s about a big budget or lavish décor. But to me, true luxury is deeper, […]
