Ready for your Amazing Ceremony?

If you missed our IG Live last week, have no fear

If you missed our IG Live last week, have no fear because there's another this week, and I'm bringing a friend! ⁠
⁠
Catch @christareedphotog with me tomorrow to talk about how she's staying creative during this time and some advice on how you can, too.

I am a day late, but I'm happy I know what day it

I am a day late, but I'm happy I know what day it is. When you don't leave your house, all the days feel the same. 😂⁠
⁠
My roundup for March is finally here! There's definitely bizarre stuff in the post this month, but I have to keep myself entertained during this time somehow!⁠
⁠
Are you reading something great too? Tell me in the comments below!

My sister and I have been Facetiming ever since I

My sister and I have been Facetiming ever since I started traveling consistently four or five years ago. As much as I love seeing her in person, FaceTiming her is almost better because of the ridiculous stunts she pulls like this one. ⁠
⁠
While we're all at home and about to go mad, anyone want to try a houseparty? (The app!) Let me know in the comments, and if so, I'll post the time and link to join!⁠
⁠
PS - This is also what my calls with couples usually look like, too. 😂

I've been pondering for days what the heck to do during this time to help you all out there and after many days of thinking...⁠
⁠
Join me LIVE every Wednesday for writing tips. If you're working on your ceremony, shoot me a message in the comments and I'll provide some ideas. If you're a wedding vendor struggling with what to write, drop me a line. ⁠
⁠
I haven't chosen an end date for this yet, so hop on every Wednesday while you've got me hanging around at home!

As someone who likes to be alone and is absolutely

As someone who likes to be alone and is absolutely ok with time stuck in my house to write, it's rare for me to miss anything. Though, I'm usually not forced to stay in my home, which is the difference between now and my normal anti-social tendencies. ⁠
⁠
One person who I dearly miss is my grandmother, who is the absolute worst with technology. 😂😂 ⁠
⁠
Who is someone you can't see and miss deeply? When all this has passed, who will you see first? Tell me in the comments below!

Over the past few weeks, I've been hammering our w

Over the past few weeks, I've been hammering our wedding ceremonies like it's my job (wait...it is 😂) and connecting with SO many new vendors. I've hung out with some of you on FaceTime, talking about your business and what content you need help writing, because it's been difficult to find a better moment than now to slow down. ⁠
⁠
Is there anyone you've virtually met over the past few weeks during this time inside? How has that changed you? Tell me in the comments below!

Originally, I wanted to stay off social media during all of this. What else do I have to say that hasn't been said? ⁠
⁠
I don't want to post photos of weddings because it doesn't feel fair to post what could have been for many couples who rescheduled or canceled their weddings. ⁠
⁠
Instead, I decided to pop online this week to offer a few challenges to all of you out there. ⁠
⁠
Once this has passed (because it will), how will you stay connected? How will you stay engaged with those you grew close to during this period, the new friends you made? How has this changed the way you communicate?⁠
⁠
In other words, what ways will you continue to make the world just the teeniest bit smaller? ⁠
⁠
For me, I plan to continue browsing around online, saying hello, and not being afraid to spend some quality time on social media interacting with those I don't see often enough. I also plan to pester all of you vendors out there to say hello digitally, even if we're not working on a wedding together, because connecting with someone who understands the same things you do is just as important as working alongside them. ⁠
⁠
Tell me in the comments what your plans are for future connection!

As I write this in a coffee shop in Medellin, wher

As I write this in a coffee shop in Medellin, where life (besides closed borders) is still relatively normal, thoughts looming over whether I should go home or stay, I've had a lot of time to think over what life is going to look like. ⁠
⁠
Watching income dwindle and weddings canceled/rescheduled over the past weeks has caused an uncomfortable amount of emotions. Some of you on these Skype calls saw me cry and swear for the first time while you cried, too. Some of you have received emails from me asking to connect. ⁠
⁠
For many of us in the wedding industry, this event has brought us to reconsider our business and how we want to operate them in the future or even if we want to at all. I'm one of them. ⁠
⁠
Nothing is certain. I'm not sure what I want LRW to look like over the next year. What is certain is our connection to others. And I don't mean just texting someone being like, "Hey you got the virus?" and ending it there. ⁠
⁠
For many of us on our own in other parts of the world and for those of you isolated at home, contact the people you love. Setup Skype or FaceTime dates. Talk about what you love. Talk about what you live for, who you care most about, what you think life will look like after this is all over. ⁠
⁠
That's the thing with life. Everything comes to an end. Cherish your relationships while you have the time away from the hustle and bustle of life. Grow closer to one another. And while you're at it, maybe plan some of this isolated time the day of your wedding, too. These small moments in the insane, ever-changing moments of the world, are what connect us together now and on the most important days of our lives. ⁠
