Jayne Weddings: Indie Wed

I fell in love instantly.

Katie Jayne from Jayne Weddings looked me up a few months ago about working with one of her brides and of course I said yes. We met and we instantly new that we both had the similar design style and aesthetic for weddings, parties and events.
So, a few weeks later she asked if I would be apart of her Indie Wed booth. I didn't even think twice. It has been so much fun getting to know Katie through this process and really being able to create what we both, as a collaboration, had hoped for visually. Along the way, I was also introduced to Janelle and her sweet company Re:find Joy. This girl has so many beautiful things to rent for events, dinner parties, weddings and more! I highly recommend you checking it out.

Thanks again, ladies, for a wonderful Indie Wed experience!

 

 

Camp Wandawega Weekend

Last summer Seth's band, Bare Mutants, was asked to play in Tom's Treehouse at Camp Wandawega (where we are getting married in a few short months!) Well, it turned into one of the best weekends I have had yet up there.
We were lucky enough to have the talented Eric Law record some video and this is what he came up with!

Thanks Camp Wandawega + Longman & Eagle for such a great few days. Sure am wishing it was sunny, warm and bright right about now!

Sweet Dean!

I have been very fortunate to have met the lovely and talented lady behind South Social & Home, Mrs. Dean Renaud. I was also fortunate enough to have her ask me to create a centerpiece arrangement for a write up about her and Homepolish in Daily Candy this past week.
I mean come on, look at that office space! She has a real talent for pulling spaces together and creating a place that people get inspired in while also being able to kick off your shoes and relax with some wine and friends. On top of her interior design magic, she is also amazing at planning and styling events and weddings using her smart tricks and wicked style sense.
Stay tuned for future projects that perhaps will involve Dean and Foxglove Studio. In the meantime, check in on what she is working on at My Little Apartment.

(On a side note...  stay tuned for an exciting Valentine's Day event that Foxglove Studio will be involved in with Unison Home! Never to soon to start thinking about flowers and treats for your lovely doves.)

stardust wedding + a new year

I came across the amazing Las Vegas wedding of Ainsley and Sebastian and had to share it with you all. This is the coolest wedding that captures the fun and originality of the couple. Best part is their number one rule for their wedding was to have an UN-WEDDING. I mean, they got matching wedding tattoos, ran to the chapel to get there on time, had fun with smoke bombs and hung out in the desert. I love the romantic weddings, but I am such a fan of color, sparkles, the desert and converse shoes! Oh how I would love to work on a wedding like this and do some crazy pastel arrangements.

Check more of the photo shoot out at Rock n Roll Bride. I will be looking for an opportunity to work with a wedding like this, so keep your eyes peeled. Kind of makes me want to elope and have Elvis marry Seth and I. Wouldn't that be an adventure?

Every year people make new years resolutions and break them. So I decided not to make one. Instead, I am just going to follow my gut and keep moving forward doing things out of the ordinary. Already I have been to my first pro basketball Bulls game and gone on an adventure with Seth during a blizzard and sub zero temps to the Museum of Science + Industry where we learned about space junk and submarines. I just need to keep doing different things to get me through the winter and the monotony of the everyday. Hopefully I keep up with the fun while I can and learn more about more.

Winter is coming

I have been terribly neglectful to this blog and I apologize. Things are slowing down for the season and I really feel like I can breath for the first time in months. The weather is getting cold and blustery and I am starting to feel the hibernation bug bite.

This year has been a great one of growth for Foxglove Studio and myself as a designer. It is fun to see the little seed of a business grow each year. I have met some wonderful peers and mentors this year and am so grateful to have worked along side them. These experiences are enlightening and they always make me feel like I am not doing enough! 

I am looking forward to seeing what comes next year. I would love to continue learning from the best as I have a lot left to learn. The idea of traveling for work is on the horizon and I hope that the new year brings more opportunities for that.  I am so excited for all of the weddings that we have next year and am fortunate to work with some amazing couples that make my job that much more wonderful. 

I am also looking forward to my own wedding in May. Being able to marry my best friend in a place that is so special to us with all of our friends and family, doesn't get much better then that. 

I hope that you all have an amazing Thanksgiving. It's time to reflect on the year and get ready for the new one. I, for one am ready to see what it brings.
