Amidst the craziness of the past few weeks of weddings, it’s been hard for me to hold onto my humanity. When I’m in work mode, everything else fades away until I begin to feel like I’m fading away myself. Looking at 5 more months of bookings, I’m reminding myself to take more moments of quiet, more moments of joy.

I knew this year would be an experiment of how I want my business to function in regards to weddings. I’ve never wanted to be a wedding churn out machine and while I’m no where near that point, I’m closer than I’d like to be. I receive so much joy out of the smaller, more intimate aspects of this journey- chatting with my regulars when they come in, doing creative projects on a whim, creating unique deliveries each day. All things I don’t have as much time for lately.

I will be restructuring my approach to weddings from here on out. I’ll be taking on fewer, being pickier on who I say yes to, and raising my prices. Because as much as I hate saying “no” to anyone, if my business doesn’t work for me, it’s eventually not going to work for you.
