2023 was a busy yet exciting year for my business. In May, I moved into my first studio space right before Mother’s Day. Getting to know neighbors who pop into my little studio/ pseudo flower shop, hosting gatherings and working alongside friends and freelancers has given me such life this year. My goals for the shop have and always will be to manifest Dolly Parton in Steel Magnolia and offer a space where people can walk in share the good, bad and ugly and feel safe to do so. I love the community my little studio has created on Pine Street and look forward to what 2024 holds.

As we are a month into the new year, I have already had my first wedding and will have my next one in a few days. Hitting the ground running is an energizing way to start so rather than sharing every little detail about my previous year, I am gonna give you the short of it and some images from a few fun 2023 looks this past year:

*There are too many weddings to highlight so just highlighting a few. I loved all the weddings I did and wish I had time to share the all!
