Today we celebrate hope: hope for real, positive and lasting change for all. In a matter of minutes, some glass ceilings will be shattered. We will finally have our first woman VP, one who is both Black and Indian. We couldn’t be more excited to have this dynamic duo in the White House.

Read MoreWe’re in the thick of the holiday season and what better way to make a stay-at-home COVID holiday more festive than by making craft cocktails?! We have a number of industry friends who make a living whipping up epicurean mixed drinks that we’re endlessly seeking recipes for. We’re here to share a curated collection of favorite recipes for ‘cups of good cheer’….
Read MoreFriends we’re going to speak candidly for this post. We can’t play cool and coy over this news, we’re far too excited: WE MADE MARTHA STEWART’S BEST WEDDING PLANNER + DESIGNER LIST!!!!!!!!!! (yes that’s ten exclamation marks, thank you very much). Being shortlisted by Martha Stewart Weddings was (and is) such a big deal to us and it came at the best time…
Read MoreWe love Thanksgiving! Partially because it’s an excuse to pull out the ridiculous collection of table top pretties that we’ve hoarded over the years (we’ve got drawers of linens!) but mostly because bringing people together to feast and connect is a huge part of who we are.

Read MoreHilary and Alex met on their 2nd day of college in 2006 and instantly felt as though they’d known each other their whole lives. Over the next decade, this incredible couple became inextricably woven into each other’s lives spending time with family, traveling, and supporting each other’s impressive career goals. While Alex dreamed up amazing new technology (he sold his aptly named technology “Alexa” to Amazon right before proposing), Hilary worked incredibly diligently to earn her PHD …

The couple craved a cozy, laid-back vibe that represented them and that was the opposite of a traditional “wedding” venue. Casa Shelter Half, a private residence in the heart of Venice, had just what they were looking for and more. When they laid their eyes on the balcony that overlooks Abbot Kinney Blvd., just steps away from the restaurant where they had their first date, they knew they had found their perfect location.
Read MoreBoy, do we love a good brunch! But you know what's even better? Planning and designing a brunch event with Jillian of 100 Layer Cakelet to celebrate the amazing mama-to-be Lisa from The Wedding AC and using it as an excuse to hang with some of the coolest, most creative ladies in town. So yeah, that's pretty much a win, win, win, win in our book.
