“Create a caricature picture of me and my job based off everything you know about me.” 👩🏽‍💻💍✨

Of course ChatGPT said: wedding + event planner, professional makeup artist, and multi-business owner who basically lives in timelines, color palettes, and coffee. Accurate 😂 (Also, peep the watches on BOTH arms?!)

Had to jump on this trend because it’s such a fun reminder that while what we do is serious, we don’t always have to be. There’s room for play, personality, and a little bit of caricature in this industry too.

If ChatGPT drew *your* job as a caricature, what would it look like? Post yours in the comments! 🎨

If you’re dreaming of a “small, intimate wedding,” you might actually be talking about *two* very different things.

Micro weddings are all the rage! 💖 With a focus on intimacy and personalization, these celebrations are changing the way we tie the knot. Ready to ditch the large crowds? Read more about this beautiful trend here: https://wix.to/QEOM95S

Micro Weddings: Why Intimate Celebrations Are Redefining the Modern Wedding Day A micro wedding is an intentionally planned wedding celebration with approximately 10–40 guests. It maintains the structure of a traditional wedding day—ceremony, reception, and meaningful moments—while prioritizing intimacy, personalization, and a relaxed, experience-focused timeline.

Gotta give a little love to a vendor we truly adore 🤍

The days after the holidays tend to bring a lot of questions - and a lot of comparison.

If you’re newly engaged and feeling like everyone else is “ahead,” let this be your reminder: there is no universal timeline that works perfectly for every couple.

Wedding planning works best when it’s intentional, informed, and aligned with your priorities - not rushed to meet someone else’s expectations.

When you’re ready to take the next step, we’re always happy to help sort through the noise 🤍

One thing we tell couples all the time: there’s no required or “right” timeline that fits everyone. Sure, there are milestones throughout your journey, but remember...

Planning looks different depending on your priorities, your life, and your season.

You’re not behind - you’re just getting started. 🤍

Engagement season brings a lot of excitement - and often, a lot of questions.

If wedding plans came up around the table yesterday, you’re not alone.

When you’re ready, we’re here to help you sort through the noise and focus on what actually matters for your wedding. 💍🥂

Merry Christmas 🤍

This trend was just too cute to pass up - and let’s be honest, AI me is significantly more put together today.

Real-life me is currently in a sugar coma, off-duty, and soaking up time with the people who matter most.

Wishing you a cozy, joy-filled Christmas. ❅

Christmas Eve always feels like a pause - and honestly, planning season can use more of those.

If you’re engaged right now and feeling behind, overwhelmed, or unsure where to even start… take today off.

And if you’re not engaged yet but maybe hoping to wake up to a little sparkle under the tree tomorrow… we’re quietly rooting for you. ✨

The timelines, decisions, and details can wait until after the holidays - and we’ll be here when you’re ready.

Wishing you a calm, cozy Christmas Eve 🤍
