I've made it to London! Had a super smooth trip thanks to my @westjet ✈️ pals and am so damn ready to frolic through streets to do some shopping, go and have some high tea, jump on a double deck red bus and settle into LUNDAN LYFE for the next 13 days 🇬🇧 I will be back answeri

I'm jumpin on a plane on Sunday so I'm cranking out all the last minute errands, pulling out my luggage and packing for my two week trip to England and I COULD NOT BE MORE EXCITED!!

Two questions for y'all today:

Just a good ole' fashioned Polaroid pitcha that I came across of Alex and I from her wedding a couple years ago 😉 She was either getting ready for or had just finished an Irish dance performance with one of her best friends on the dance floor that night and it was SOO beyond fan

It's not very often that I design a wedding that doesn't bleed color but let me tell you...when I do...its timeless elegance and understated beauty 💫

When I designed Jess + Wyatt's wedding reception, Jess challenged me with: "Create something that hasn't already been done out t

One tricky aspect of planning a wedding can be anticapting your guests needs, right??

We all know the basics of hosting which is putting a kick ass cocktail into our guests hand and feeding them a drool-worthy dinner. Easy! But when you're dealing with the weather, outdoor venue

When you want tier's of cheese instead of cake on your wedding day 🤌🏼⁣

At Ali + Matt's New Year's Eve wedding, the food was nothing short of a freakin culinary masterpiece 🔥 @culinafamily pulled out all the stops and pieced together a 10' long grazing top for them and served

It's all about the details for us planners + designers! ☝🏼

If you hear a photographer or videographer tell you they'll make time for the details “if they can”...allow the hair to go up on the back of your neck!! LOL 😂

Both myself as well as the couple SLAVES over the smallest

A detail that I absolutely swoon over from Alisha + David's wedding that I would absolutely do more of is these custom placemat's that they had made for each of their guests. You can play around and incorporate so many design + info details into them and they are just so fun as p

The wearer of many hats = me, both literally and figuratively.

Somehow my hats are how people recognize me now, "oh you're the hat girl!" LOL People always know where I'm at when I'm at work at a clients wedding or event (I suppose it's also helpful to be 6'1"). I've worn many

The visual definition of what a girl dreams of on the morning of her wedding day. She's dressed in her peignoir, is getting her 'cheeks rouged' all while sipping bubbles and watching her wedding come to life out the window in the backyard.

This is bridal bliss 🤍

Gone are the days of clinking glasses to get the couple to kiss #amiright (except for when there's the one Uncle who insists on doing so 😂).

The Kotelko's guests stepped up to spin the wheel to get the newlyweds to smooch and @thegrapefruitcreative painted the cutest wheel for

The highlight of my entire career to date has been being able to plan and execute one of my best friends weddings.
