Hi All! We hope you are having a great summer. Enjoy the slower days, longer nights, a drink with a friend! We are enjoying the slower pace and recharging for next Season! Here in South Florida our Season is September through May...so a bit opposite of the rest of the USA!
Recently we have noticed a lot of discussions for people in creative industries about being authentic in your business. So we decided to share what we think being authentic in our business means.
1. We are really good at weddings! Not to be braggy...but weddings are our thing. We love brides. We love grooms. We love design and details and solving problems. And the best feeling in the world is watching the couple make their committments to each other and then celebrating with those closest to them.
2. We are proud of who we are outside of the business. Jen is a proud soccer mom. Mandi is also a personal trainer and loves all things fitness. Ashli is a proud mom and stepmom. Lara loves performing in musical theater. Focusing on these things in our lives make us better for you.
3. We make mistakes...there I said it...sometimes we mess up. But we own it, we fix it and we move on.
4. You won't hear us using random jargon...Swoonworthy is not a part of our vocabulary. So what we are saying is that we don't try use language or "the hip words" that you find on some blogs and websites. It would sound funny coming from us.
5. We love classic elegance and individuality. Now that may sound like they don't work together...but they do. We love gorgeous classic weddings. We aren't overly trendy, but adding a little something here and there is a great idea. We love celebrating each couple and what makes them unique. Following the latest fad just to follow it...not our style.
So we ask you, what does being authentic mean to you? And how does that translate when you are planning your wedding and hiring your wedding pros?
