A Room With A View

One thing I love about my studio location is the view of our cute little town. The intererior is very Chicago, shabby-chic inspired, but looking out the windows at quant little Main Street and the feed mill across the intersection reminds me where I am. The studio makes a perfectly warm spot for watching the Santa Parade each year. Friends, family, and hot chocolate... a great way to start the holiday season!



Despite all the excitement and anticipation... some of us just could not stay awake to see Santa Clause.


 

It would not be a parade in Coopersville without a few tractors.

Now Booking Weddings in Nashville, TN

Many of you know that I've fallen in love with everything about Nashville, Tennessee. Since my best friend Sarah moved there over a year ago, I've been down to visit quite frequently. In fact, I've made trip four times in the last eight months! What can I say? Sarah and I have been inseparable since second grade and I miss her dearly. Phone calls and Skype chats just don't cut it! The drive takes only nine hours... however, flying takes two days (it's a long story)!

Don't worry, Mom, there are no plans to move there yet, but I will definitely be traveling there more and more regularly. Consider this my official announcement that I will now be booking weddings in the Nashville and Franklin areas! I'm incredibly excited about growing my business in this area. My most recent trip was focused on learning more about the wedding industry and the client needs and trends in Williamson and Davidson Counties. I spent the week meeting many wonderful wedding vendors, attended a great chamber event, and visited some of the most exquisite venues I've ever imagined. Some of the most kind and helpful people have helped to make this decision very easy.

Although I had a strict schedule, I did manage to have a little fun. Sarah and I got dolled up and went to the Country Music Awards. That was definitely the highlight of my year

If you're planning a Nashville wedding in 2010, give me a call so we can chat about your plans!
