I’m always floored by other creatives' talents. Like, look at this cake design! It’s incredible and I wish I was this talented at baking and designing!

I’m a sucker for mixing a color palette and textures. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Want to know something funny? Audrey (my other better half) hates the feel of velvet. It seriously grosses her out. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Soooo that means if there’s velvet involved she’s not going near it! hahaha ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ VENDORS:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Photographer/Flatlay Design: Arliquinn Photography- @arliquinnphotography⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Planning/Design/Décor: Events by Sophie- @eventsbysophie⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Personalized Décor: Write Liz Write- Instagram: @writelizwrite⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Venue: The Ballenger Farm- @theballengerfarm⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Florist/Acrylic Stands/Vases: Eight Tree Street Floral- @eighttreestreetfloral⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Stationery: Poeme- @poeme⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Tuxedos: Tuxedo by Sarno- @tuxedobysarno @_old_town_tuxedos⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Cake: Cakebee- @thecakebee⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Rings: J’Adorn Designs- @jadorndesigns⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Chair Rentals: Party Rental Ltd.- @partyrentalltd⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Videographer: Samia’s Studios- @samias_studios⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #arliquinnphotography #weddingshoes #somethingblue #2021brides #2022brides #2021weddingplanning #weddingtraditions 
Let’s all find something worth celebrating from 2020. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I know it’s been a hot mess but certainly SOMETHING wonderful happened in these last 300 some odd days and I want to hear all the positive and great things! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Here’s mine. Although 9 of my 2020 weddings were postponed this year, a few couples still opted to have a small ceremony which meant that I still got to see them (even if I could only give air hugs!) AND I get to see them and celebrate them next year also! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I’ve gotten more time with my couples in supporting them with this extended planning time they’ve gotten.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ VENDORS:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Photographer/Flatlay Design: Arliquinn Photography- @arliquinnphotography⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Planning/Design/Décor: Events by Sophie- @eventsbysophie⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Personalized Décor: Write Liz Write- Instagram: @writelizwrite⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Venue: The Ballenger Farm- @theballengerfarm⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Florist/Acrylic Stands/Vases: Eight Tree Street Floral- @eighttreestreetfloral⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Stationery: Poeme- @poeme⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Tuxedos: Tuxedo by Sarno- @tuxedobysarno @_old_town_tuxedos⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Cake: Cakebee- @thecakebee⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Rings: J’Adorn Designs- @jadorndesigns⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Chair Rentals: Party Rental Ltd.- @partyrentalltd⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Videographer: Samia’s Studios- @samias_studios⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #arliquinnphotography #styledweddingshoot #2021brides #2020reflection #2022brides #2021weddingplanning #gratefulmoments 
Remember my post about the lions? Well soon after I entered the kitchen I walked through the formal dining room and these two caught my eye. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It was like they were made just for our shoot! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Also... I picked every single leaf and boy were they sticky! Totally worth it though.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ VENDORS:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Photographer/Flatlay Design: Arliquinn Photography- @arliquinnphotography⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Planning/Design/Décor: Events by Sophie- @eventsbysophie⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Personalized Décor: Write Liz Write- Instagram: @writelizwrite⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Venue: The Ballenger Farm- @theballengerfarm⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Florist/Acrylic Stands/Vases: Eight Tree Street Floral- @eighttreestreetfloral⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Stationery: Poeme- @poeme⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Tuxedos: Tuxedo by Sarno- @tuxedobysarno @_old_town_tuxedos⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Cake: Cakebee- @thecakebee⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Rings: J’Adorn Designs- @jadorndesigns⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Chair Rentals: Party Rental Ltd.- @partyrentalltd⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Videographer: Samia’s Studios- @samias_studios⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #arliquinnphotography #styledweddingshoot #elopementweddingphotographer #weddinginvitationsuite #weddinginviteflatlay #invitationflatlaydetails
