Happy Monday, bloggies! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend and soaked up the sunshine. In case you missed it last week the fabulous Mag Rouge launched their latest issue, with a gorgeous cover shot by the one and only Elizabeth Messina. If you thought the last two issues were stunning then you’ll have to dedicate a good chunk of your day to poring over this one. Each and every page is just jammed with beautiful eye candy. And if you happen to make a little time in your schedule for some Mag Rouge goodness, be sure to check out the second article in my column, Confessions of a Wedding Planner :)
I took inspiration from this post here and compiled a list of items that helped establish my business and give me a good start in the industry. I hope any aspiring planners, stylists and coordinators will read this article and feel inspired that they too can succeed and flourish in the incredible wedding industry I feel so fortunate to be a part of. My piece starts on page 280. If you happen to read it all the way through, I’d love to hear what you think! Enjoy your Monday and make it a good one xo

















Hey Rihannon, thanks for stopping by my blog! How funny that our rings look similar. Mine is actually an antique ring from 1929 (I love anything vintage). I tried to find a closer up pic of yours to see what the band looks like. This is an absolutely beautiful blog and I’m definitely going to spend some time looking through your older posts- maybe i”ll find some inspiration for my wedding :)
This magazine is amazing! I just flipped through so many pages loving every single picture!!
