Wedding Highlight – Shelby and Brian

Shelby and Brian are two people you meet and you know will be your friends for life.  They are warm, engaging, smart and funny.  So are their families.  Shelby’s mom has a saying, “Beauty is as beauty does.”  Her entire family is beautiful – inside and out.  Her new son-in-law is as well — and frankly, so are his amazing parents.  They hosted the wedding of Brian and Shelby without a second of hesitation at their home and are among […]

Wedding Rewind

I’m lucky.  I get it.  I get to help couples and families plan an incredible celebration and share in special, intimate moments.  I get to see private, quiet moments with wonderful people.  I get to see things few people get to see, and I get to share in these quiet prayers, whispered conversations and silly conversations just before a bride walks down the aisle with her father and I am humbled to be present in the moment.  I’m not immune […]

Art of the Table – inTENsity

Every year, one of the first signs of spring is the Association of Bridal Consultants Annual Art of the Table.  Now celebrating its 10th Anniversary, this event is a culmination of design, decor and distinctive tablescapes put together by Indiana’s elite planners, designers, florists and event professionals. I’ve long called this celebration of beautiful tablescapes “My Favorite Day of the Year” because of the amazing over-the-top tables and the sense of collaboration between the designers.  This year, it was actually […]

Wedding Highlight – Kristen and Tim

Every once in a while as a wedding planner, you get a client who just allows you to run!  This time I got to run in circles  (..and I didn’t mind)  😉 Tim and Kristen were finishing their Masters degrees at Notre Dame when she and I met with her mom for lunch the day before Christmas Eve when I said, “I have an idea…” with a grin across my face.  She said “run with it.” Finally – after having […]

Imagine That!

My Disney background has helped shape my entire career – from bringing more than just a little pixie dust into the lives of each client, to ensuring each event has her own Fairy Godmother.  I want to make sure every event has an element of magic, imagination and fun.  Imagination is where is all starts! I love seeing how clients bring their own personalities into a wedding – so let’s talk about how we can do that.  (and… we won’t […]

Wedding Highlight – Margo & Bob

From the moment I met Margo and Bob, I was welcomed into their home and their lives with open arms and I knew it was going to an amazing weekend full of celebration, laughter and of course, fantastic Italian food! Their engagement party was only a few days after we first met, and I was asked to attend so I could meet each of their children.  What a stunning family.  The kids (and by this I mean – wonderful, smart, […]

Wedding Highlight – Andrea & Patrick

Every once in a while a couple just touches your soul.  In 14 years of planning weddings I’ve been lucky enough to have this happen to me several times throughout the year.  It’s one of the reasons I am so discerning about the number of clients I take a year, and one of the reasons I interview each client so thoroughly as much as they interview me.  My only regret with Andrea and Patrick — time.  Patrick proposed to Andrea […]

Wedding Highlight – Megan+Phil

  Megan+Phil culminated an amazing week with their wedding celebration! What started out as oh, you know an average week … just graduating medical school – ended 7 days later as husband and wife 🙂  – just another average week for these two amazingly beautiful people! Megan and Phil infused their fun-loving spirit and heritage into their entire weekend’s events.  The concept  “tying the knot” inspired the invitation which infused a beautiful Celtic symbol into the whole celebration.   The […]

The One Who Loved You First

Father’s Day is this Sunday and in the day’s honor, I wanted to have brides reflect on their first love ~ their Daddy.  During the wedding weekend, the entire day seems to go very quickly.  I wanted to give a few points in the day to honor the man who stood by your side until you met the new love of your life.  Having these moments with your Dad will be among the best memories of your wedding.  Both you, and your […]

Honoring Mom and Dad!

A Toast to Mothers! As we enter Mother’s Day week I wanted to take a moment to reflect on the importance of family in a wedding.  The wedding ceremony is the blending of two families into one and while some portions of the ceremony ritual dictate how this happens, I want each of my planning clients to also take a few moments to relax, enjoy and take a deep breath.  I also want their families to do the same.  Savoir […]
