Behind The Brand

What was the initial spark for your brand, how did it all begin?

Our brand story actually began with the simple goal of making a great impression – believe it or not.

Back in 2006, early in my relationship with the man who would later become my husband, his mother decided we should spend Christmas together. Naturally, I saw this as the perfect opportunity to prove I was the ideal future daughter-in-law. So, I went all out, creating the picture-perfect holiday.

From bespoke place settings and opulent centerpieces to perfectly wrapped gifts adorned with personalized ribbons – every detail was thoughtfully designed. It was a Christmas straight out of a storybook, and I poured everything I had into making sure the day was a resounding success. Needless to say, it was. Everyone was thoroughly impressed—if I do say so myself.

Later that day, someone asked if I had ever considered a career in event planning. At the time, I hadn’t, but in that moment, a seed was planted. Eighteen years later, here we are.

Back then, I had no idea where this path would take me, or what the journey would hold. But through shifting styles and evolving trends, I’m so grateful I followed that suggestion—because now, I can’t imagine doing anything else.

What services do you offer couples?

I’d say we specialize in full planning and design, but we truly believe that every couple – and every wedding – is different. That means the level of guidance needed will vary.

With that in mind, we’ve spent years refining a range of services, from managing every last detail to focusing exclusively on wedding design and styling.

How would you describe your aesthetic?

Our signature style is a blend of modern and romantic, with a reputation for timeless elegance. We’re known for creating sophisticated aesthetics while incorporating deeply personal and thoughtful touches throughout.

As a planner or stylist, what are you inspired by at the moment in the world of weddings?

For the past year or so, we’ve been inspired by fluidity and movement – elements that can be seamlessly woven into both wedding design and the overall guest experience to create a truly unique celebration. This approach is something we love incorporating into every wedding we’re part of, and we’re seeing more couples embrace it wholeheartedly.

What would you like to see less of?

Unrealistic expectations. We all know that couples look for inspiration from various sources and when they see something they like, they often try to replicate it. This doesn’t always work, for various reasons, and we would love to see more couples being true to their individual style and focus on the elements of a wedding that really speak to them.

A styling/planning tip or two you’ve learned along the way that you’d give to any couple?

The best advice we give our couples is to focus on what’s important to them and remember to have fun.

It’s very easy to get caught up in the planning process and pulled in multiple directions but if you keep coming back to your main priorities for the wedding and what you really want, then everything else will fall into place.

Also, trust your wedding planner. You’ve hired them for a reason so put your confidence in them and let them do everything they can to ensure your wedding planning experience is remembered for all the right reasons.
