I am a firm believer that there is something to celebrate everyday!

It’s June! The sixth month of 2023 is here and summer officially begins. With the unofficial summer kick off over Memorial Day weekend it’s likely you may be in full-fledged summer mode. I’m here to share a few things to celebrate this month that you might not know exist! Of course, Father’s Day (June 18) […]

It’s time for my yearly planner! Yes, you heard me correct. Today is the launch of the 2023-2024 Academic Yearly layout (August 2023 – July 2024) planners from Simplified, a brand by Emily Ley. I have been a Simplified planner girl for years, I’m certain it’s more than a decade. I found Emily the year […]

Having been a luxury wedding and event planner for over a decade my love for weddings runs deep in my bones. It’s the type A personality in me that loves creating timelines, the dreamer and visionary in me that loves designing one of a kind events and the servants heart in me that loves giving […]

1 decade. 10 years. 120 months. 521 weeks. 3,652 days. The girl in this picture is equal parts the same as she is different. It only took me one wedding to learn that you can’t wear heels all day (even when you are 25), and that serving couples and families on a marriage day is truly […]

I can’t believe we are here. Truth be told after having our first little guy I was dead set that the Lord had it written in my story that I was set to be a boy mom. We had boy names, knew what we were going to do and then I heard my doctor, “it’s […]

I can’t believe I haven’t ever posted about my little guys second birthday! Because I am a full year past due I have, of course, misplaced photos, but with the mentality that it is better to give than receive here we go! First, can we talk about how BAB’s never disappoints! I know I can […]

Today was the day! The big launch! Can I just say I’ve officially had a Simplified Planner by Emily Ley for eight (or is it nine) years now. I found her amazing brand the year after she offered personalized monogrammed, laminated planners out of her home. From day one they have been nothing but amazing […]

How fun is this! It’s Wedding Wednesday and it only seems fitting to curate an Easter “basket” for the newly engaged! How adorable are these ice buckets as the basket! There are so many adorable options it’s hard to choose just one. The celebratory bunny, summer lemons or perfect monogram – you choose your base! […]

I can’t believe the day is here! A day that feels like it has been 12,775 days in the making. I was always raised to believe I could be anything I wanted to be, and I get told often that I sure am a lot of things. 🙂 Now that I own multiple businesses (and […]

Yes, I said that correct. I can’t un-know what I now know. By no means does that mean that I know everything, but what I am slowly starting to open my ears and eyes to is decades of our nation growing, but not following along with laws and regulations. I never thought I would be […]

My little boy is ONE! How in the world did a single year go so fast, yet so slow all at the same time? To be honest I am not sure I remember the first few months, but have plenty of pictures and videos to help! One thing I knew I wanted was a professional […]

Oh my goodness! How in the world has it been one month since our sweet little guy entered the world? I feel like there are so many blog posts I wanted to have up and posted by now, but let’s be honest life happens. Between little man barely sleeping and us figuring out this new normal […]

Let’s just say I have written and rewritten this post more times that I would like to admit, so here it goes. For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11 The truth […]

If you are not a fan of my business Facebook page then you may have missed the excitement yesterday. 🙂 I could not be more humbled to have received the amazing blessing of being named the Best Wedding planner in the ENTIRE STATE of OKLAHOMA and Best New Wedding Planner in HOUSTON, TEXAS by the […]

Yes, this is me today… well, this week. I absolutely love the holidays, my job and everything that has a bow, but right now my desk needs tending to and I need some elves. My desk is piled high with papers and files in preparation for my last event of 2011 and events to begin […]

Yes, I am finally embracing the holidays (good thing because I have 2 1/2 weeks to shop for Christmas) and I had to start with glitter! Since I now have a fiance 🙂 we have a few holiday parties to go to and of course that means new outfits. I know I should be shopping […]

How amazing is this gorgeous invitation we found this morning? It’s so amazing we have to blog about it. (If you don’t know what Pinterest is, then you need to request an invite to join the site ASAP, it’s fabulous!)  With a black and white stripe liner, and shades of red, pink and green we fell […]

These are a few of my favorite things (please tell me you sang that in your head?)!  Here you will find a collection of my recent collaborations, projects, favorite brands, and items I have my heart set on!
