Life didn’t follow the timeline I imagined and it gave me this moment instead. How sweet is that 🥹 Planning a wedding with her has been SO fun!!! She said she is growing her hair out for the wedding and needs hair oil HAAH #weddingplanning #bride #bridesmaids #wedding #weddingday @Shop Birdy Grey

4/2 Edited to

... Read morePlanning a wedding is a beautiful journey filled with tiny yet memorable moments. One experience I cherish is helping the bride-to-be decide on hair care—she's growing out her hair and carefully choosing hair oils to keep it healthy and radiant for the wedding day. It’s a thoughtful reminder that preparing for such an important moment goes beyond just the big decisions. Another delightful part of wedding planning is the dress selection process. I remember reviewing countless swatches early in the morning, just like a full-time job, comparing colors from bubble gum pink to dusty rose and classic hues like matte satin peach cream. These colors aren't just shades; they carry feelings and match personalities. The tactile element is equally important—fabrics like knit crepe offer comfort and elegance, which are essential for a bridesmaid who’ll be active and memorable on the wedding day. Engaging in this process firsthand taught me the importance of patience and attention to detail. It’s not just about what looks good in a picture, but what feels right, that unique combination of texture and hue that perfectly complements the bride’s vision. I also realized how children, even as young as six, can bring joy and their honest opinions to these decisions, helping to choose colors that fit the whole celebration’s ambiance. For those embarking on similar wedding planning adventures, my advice is to enjoy each step with an open heart, savoring the personal touches like hair care routines and fabric swatches. They not only enhance the wedding day but also strengthen the bonds shared among friends and family.
