Grief is a really odd experience to have. One day you’re powering through a list of to-dos like you’re on autopilot. The next, you’re numb. Grey. Lifeless. Sense of humor? What’s that? After losing our baby (you can read his story here), I’ve gone through a rollercoaster of emotions and personality tweaks with my grief. […]

I so badly wanted this to be the most exciting blog post I’d write. Many of you have been unaware of the journey my husband and I have been on the last few months. We were supposed to share the news with you around this time, but instead, we’re sharing our journey of heartbreak, grief, […]

Wedding planning is more than just rentals and florals. There is a whole checklist of stuff you “have to do” before the big day.

I moved into specializing […]

In May, Kevin and I met with our wedding photographers Katelyn and Michael (Katelyn James Photography) for our engagement session! […]

Can I tell you guys a secret? *Whispers* You don’t have to be an ENP Bride and Groom to be an ENP Couple 😉 Rebecca and Matthew are officially living proof. Rebecca found me online through a quick Google search, but I think I was a little luckier than just that. These two got married […]
