for each new morning with its light, for rest and shelter of the night, for health and food, for love and friends, for every gift the kitchen sends. 🦃 ⠀

during a year where everything is hard, we are grateful to clients past and future who spend their money with a tiny business like ours and press on to only postpone their joy. when it’s time, we are going to rage. and for the tiny weddings we were able to have this year: an incredible reminder why we still love what we do, thank you for that gift. ⠀
⠀
concurrently, we are grateful for the blesset tiny things: sour gummy watermelons, very gentle yoga, and really amazing first-dance songs. for zoom cocktail hours, for spandex, and for pajamas that can pass for clothes. for kind words and group text chats, for mangoes and days off, for podcasts, and library books, and really good sparkling wine. for 50 degree days in November, for Netflix, and for how damn resilient it turns out we humans are when push came to shove, like, several times this year. ⠀

Hi guys, 👋 how is your pandemic going? Our pajama and legging game is strong, we have watched all of Netflix, and we get SO PUMPED when one of our holds is available at the library. What’s good with you?

I started working on my home office when Covid hit not realizing how much time I would actually be spending in it. There are a few last things I want to do and WALLPAPERING THE CEILING is one of them. It came to me during child’s pose (because it also doubles as a yoga studio) and now I can’t think about anything else. Welcome to my brain, it’s an unincorporated crazy town. 🖤

Everything is weird right now. And even weirder that you all are out there trying to plan a wedding during this upside-down time. SO, anything that resembles the before times, or just a moment to get out of your routine and pretend things are normal is such a treat. So when the team at @bellebridalatelier asked us to swing by to see their new Chicago wedding dress shop (literally opened right as the pandemic got going) we jumped. We also showered, put on hard pants, lightly blow-dried, and put on EYE MAKE-UP (took a minute to remember how, tbh) so it’s clear we are in love with Giselle and the team and now we are also in love with @goli_june’s new collection! Make an appointment to see it before 11/22 and read and see more on the blog today. [link in bio!]

@bellebridalatelier invited us over to see her new space (gorgy) and get a sneak peek at @goli_june’s new collection “Stray Here” (stunning). ⠀

We’ll be showing you some more this week but in the meantime get yourself an appointment for this trunk show through 11/22. Like, immediately. 🤍 ⠀

And yes, It took every ounce of my being to not flop my worn-out self into this rack of softest glory. 📸: @leapweddings

May we suggest you stockpile confetti and give yourself the royal treatment at the end of these long, winter, lockdown days? The clean up can be a bummer but the revelry is absolutely worth it. 🎉 📸: @charminginlove
