And now for some deep thoughts, brought on by some recent life activity. To sum it up…I realize that with each wedding I work, each vendor I connect with and as I continue to build these amazingĂ‚ relationships, this is the life I love! Making someone’s day unforgettable and special is what it’s all about for me! And as with anything you do in life, you should always do what you love and what makes you most happy! Don’t settle for less, especially not for any longer than you absolutely have to! Same goes for love and weddings!
So how does this apply to weddings you ask? Well, actually I say – how DOESN’T this apply to weddings?!? When you’re planning your wedding or even if you hire someone else to plan your wedding, remember to always follow your heart. If you’re not in love with the burnt orange, speak up! If you’d rather have calla lilies instead of roses, you better let it be known! If you want to include some LED place cards, then make it happen! (Sorry had to throw that one in there, I think I’m obsessed)
Most weddings come once in a lifetime, so make your wedding something that you love, even if that means disappointing your mom by not wearing a bright white gown or including a unity candle at the ceremony. Decide what’s most important and right for you and make it happen! In the end, everyone will understand that your wedding day is just that, YOURS!
So there you have it, my feelings for the night! I’m looking forward to a fabulous (and not too hot) wedding weekend coming up! What could be more fun than the St. Louis Zoo and animal noses, right?!? Not much, I’d say!
Happy Labor Day everyone! Cheers!

So true!! And you my dear have such a HUGE heart and so much love to give to everyone!! So honored to know you and call you friend!
Thanks Katie! Right back at you! We have great friends to share this all with!
OHMYGOSH it’s like you are in my brain. All of us planners definitely share this insane LOVE for it, a love for love, and perfectionism, and making someone’s BIG DAY the BEST DAY is the blood that runs through our veins. AMEN to this post.
I couldn’t agree with you more. In fact, I just mentioned that saying “Do what you love and love what you do” in a recent blog post. We here at The Abbey have been following your blog and it is by far one of the slickest out there. You rock.
Truer words were never spoken! And on top of speaking up to make sure your wedding is everything you dreamed, your wedding vendors aren’t mind-readers. We need your feedback to make sure we know what you want!
