It is hard to believe I sit here and write to you with fall (officially) ten days away. I feel like I blinked, and summer came and went, and my gut tells me this seems to be the case as we get older. It’s bittersweet if I am being honest. Grasping so tight to the […]

It’s Sunday morning, and there is a misty rain falling outside our living room window, with my candle lit, and three dogs surrounding me as I write. It’s a very cozy morning, to say the least, and it’s right where I want to be. It’s been two weeks since I produced a client’s wedding in […]

If you’re here, you may have guessed that Vanity Affair Events is officially no longer and Kelsey Timberlake Events has been welcomed with open arms by so many of you. Since I began my company in 2015, and as I enter my fifth wedding season, there is one thing that has always remained and that […]

There is something so refreshing about January. A new year, a fresh start and a clean slate.  Every year I try to come up with a few tangible resolutions, or intentions as I like to call them. I like to be very conscious that these intentions are just that- and if I am not successful, […]

“And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.” ― Anaïs Nin Last week officially marked my first year as a Wedding Planner! The learning curve was high, but the gratitude and enjoyment even higher. What better way to celebrate year one than […]

While everyone is visiting the pumpkin patch, we felt it was time to embrace the other activities our beautiful state has to offer during this Fall season, so we packed our bags (OK we actually loaded up our cardboard boxes, let’s get real here) and set off for a day in the orchards! Upon arrival […]

InstaCamp. Yes, you are reading that correctly and when I was first introduced to the term, the same thought crossed my mind: ‘There is no way that’s a real thing!’ In a society built on social media platforms, it is more than a real thing. Instagram has become one of, if not the most used mobile […]

It is no secret that weddings can be taxing, both emotionally and physically. It is important that in the months leading up to your wedding you take some serious time out to relax and rejuvenate before your big day. Self care is important anytime, but especially now!  I am t-minus 25 days until my wedding […]
