The Little Things
Life comes in seasons, and in this season of planning your wedding, it is important to reflect on what elements are most important to you and your fiancé. When you look back on your wedding day, joy can be found in the small moments and details that speak to you as a couple.
My Husband, Luke
My very favorite person
Luke is a master of technology and can charm just about anyone. You can find him sipping on a Long Island iced tea or kissing our Morkie pup, Piper. We love to go on dates in Downtown Annapolis and watch the same movies over and over again.
All Things British
especially their Home & Garden Shows
There is something about the English countryside that completely captures my heart. From little badgers scurrying through hedgerows to goldfinches perched on a rose bush, nothing gives me more inspiration in my work. Some of my favorite shows are Countryfile, Springwatch, Love your Garden, and Escape to the Country!
A Good Book & Cup of Tea
everyone needs to unwind
One thing I love is when my Brides send me book recommendations. At this point, I feel like we should start our own book club! My favorites are psychological thrillers and environmental science. Also, who doesn’t love a good tear-jerking love story sometimes!
my story:
the reason why
/
I fell in love with my High School sweetheart when I was just 13 years old. After almost a decade of dating and a year of pandemic postponement, I have such a deep appreciation of this sacred day. My husband Luke is a huge part of my inspiration and motivation!
I understand that marriage is at the heart of the process.
The driving force behind the wedding planning process is love. This is why I emphasize serving my clients in a way that doesn’t just focus on the beautiful decor, but on your beautiful story. I love all different forms of story telling, whether it is a gorgeous event or work of art. I truly believe every story deserves to be honored throughout the wedding day. When you look back on your wedding day the love you have rooted in your marriage will always be the most beautiful aspect.
