We all see the fabulous ideas on Pinterest- “how to” just about any and everything, from table settings to your very own wedding altar. But the bride that decides to over do the DIY projects is the bride that finds herself in her 90 degree kitchen, making 100 batches of “homemade” granola as a lovely […]

Mothers of the Bride (and Groom) are among the most honored and special guests at a wedding and so, their attire should certainly fit that title. My own mother has had quite the dress shopping adventure in finding a dress for my wedding. On countless shopping trips we have searched for gems, among dresses that are, […]

I consider myself to be very progressive, especially when it comes to wedding etiquette and tradition.

Whether you’re a male or female planner, we know that opposites attract, which means, in many relationships one partner […]

I’m Danielle, event planner number two, aka, Kelsey’s right hand woman. I love organization and days when things just seem to fall perfectly into place. I’m a sucker for romance – I’ll be the one crying in the back while you walk down the aisle, and at your first dance and possibly at every speech […]
