Not sure when exactly it happened, but recently, I’ve been referred to as an OG blogger.

I’m heading to New Orleans this weekend to celebrate my best friend and bride-to-be; and as much as I’m looking forward to the much-needed girl time, I’m also feeling ready to be inspired.

Scrolling through designer Stephanie White’s instagram feed is basically seeing my deepest, most sacred wedding fantasies come to life. I’ll never forget the day I discovered Odylyne the Ceremony — I literally gasped out loud and thought to myself, Oh my god.

Things are never going to work out for me. Everything’s wrong. These dark thoughts are powerful, and can have real consequences in our lives. If you find yourself […]
Editor’s Note: Today’s post is authored by Erica Holland. In addition to her full-time role at a private equity firm, Erica runs a personal finance and lifestyle blog, ModMoney, where she simplifies personal finance in a relatable way, and dives into important “real world” topics seldom taught in school. From Erica: There’s something about the start of a new […]
Australia has been at the top of my travel wish list for quite some time. You can just feel the effortlessly cool vibe that the entire country radiates, even from halfway across the world. So it’s no surprise that we all swooned when we spotted the photos from Stephanie Robertson’s timeless, botanical-inspired wedding at her family’s vineyard […]
