A beautifully arranged scene on a rustic wooden surface featuring various wedding elements and florals. A large scallop-shaped shell dish holds delicate rings and glistening pearl accessories. Surrounding the dish are vibrant pink and white flowers, lush greenery, and stems with trailing wisps. The color palette is soft and romantic, with shades of blush, ivory, and verdant greens. The composition exudes an elegant and whimsical ambiance, capturing the essence of a dreamy wedding celebration.

Sharing Life's Challenges

I rarely do this --- but it's story time. WILL YOU WALK WITH ME TODAY? This week I was let down. Worse - I was fired (not by a bride, by a side writing gig I have). Now, I could've just smoothed this over and hid it from the world, but you know what? I'm sharing it with you instead. Why? Because it's REAL. . What is the point of doing nothing but painting (or taking) pretty pictures of our lives online if it's not the whole truth? WE ALL FACE NIGHTMARES! At work. Planning a wedding. Raising Kids. Right? So let's talk about them more. Let's build each other up by admitting our defeats and letting our friends know that they don't walk alone in theirs. . WILL YOU WALK WITH ME TODAY? Will you tell me below about a failure, a hard time, a less-than-social-media-perfect time that you've gone through? . . .
