We’re enjoying some trumpet fanfare here at having one of our favorite weddings from last year published in the current issue of The Knot, available on stands Nationwide now. Rebecca and Frans’ London wedding was romantic and fun, personal and memorable. We cherish all of our clients, but it is extra special when we get to help a former employee and close friend plan their wedding day. Be sure to pick up your copy now and check out the sneak peek below.

Sweet Soirees: DIY Sugar Plum 1st Birthday
December birthdays can be tough and I know, first hand, because I have one- and now, so does my daughter. I want her birthdays to feel as special as those “lucky” kids who get to have pool party birthdays in the summer. We celebrated Courtney’s first birthday by embracing the holiday spirit with a theme of Our Sugar Plum is Turning 1! It was a festive affair that lent itself well for a little girl’s birthday party. My favorite details included the paper-doll ballerina garland, a tulle tutu for my little one, ballerina cupcake toppers, Amazingly Good Eggnog, and party cracker favors.
Most of the party was DIY, but I could not have done it without a little help from these sources:
Paper Goods from Meri Meri and World Market
“More Merry Please” Disposable Cups from Pier 1 Imports
Custom Onsie from Etsy Shop, Ortinau Art
Tutu from Etsy Shop, SimplyElegant93
Happy Birthday Banner and Snowflake Garland from Etsy Shop, EMTsweetie
Happy Birthday Courtney!!!

#BTS: A Touch of Velvet
We’ve been busy getting in the holiday spirit and have been drawing so much inspiration from gorgeous velvet. An incredibly versatile fabric that is equally comfortable in elegant, luxurious or modern, playful designs. For more holiday inspiration, visit our Happy Holidays Pinterest board.
