On your day off, where would we find you? On our days off, you can often find us outdoors, enjoying nature walks or tending to our gardens to harvest fruits and vegetables. We value these moments of relaxation and leisure as opportunities to rejuvenate. During periods of downtime, we frequently use the opportunity to enhance our skills and prepare for upcoming weeks and months, maximizing our enjoyment of subsequent downtime
If you weren’t a wedding vendor, what would be your dream job? For our owner and the majority of the team, our dream jobs would involve hands-crafting work and creativity. Our passions lie in gardening, cultivating vegetables, cooking, and crafting small batch products. We envision operating from our home during weekdays, showcasing and selling our handmade items at weekend markets and boutique shops.
What great wedding trends are you seeing this year? The hot trends for the current and upcoming year encompass a blend of both playful and sophisticated elements. Hair trends range from polished styles with minimal volume to more casual, tousled looks. In the world of makeup, trends lean towards a fresh, natural appeal and a sultry, romantic smokiness. Noteworthy among the fashion trends are dresses featuring high slits and capes in lieu of traditional veils.
Do you have any practical advice for couples planning a wedding? One of the most valuable pieces of advice for couples preparing for their weddings is to strive for balance. While seeking guidance from loved ones and vendors, it's essential to remain faithful to your vision. Don't hesitate to seek assistance when needed and delegate tasks accordingly. Above all, on your special day, ensure that your vendors and coordinators are fulfilling their responsibilities while also taking the time to enjoy, have fun, and cherish every moment.
