Rosencrantz and Gildenstern are here to remind you: have a great Friday… or else 💀

Beetlejuice, reimagined for a wedding table: a little chaotic, a little dramatic, and somehow still elegant 🐞🖤

Not just a guest book table… more like a place where your love story gets quietly documented in candlelight. A little dark, a little romantic, and just dramatic enough to feel intentional ❤️🖤

Somewhere in your future: you’re getting married, everything feels calm… and the favors are already done. (We love that for you) 🖤🎁

At some point in your life you will be planning your wedding, and someone will tell you to hire a day-of coordinator. It is very important that you listen to them. Because on your wedding day there will be timelines, vendors, family questions, missing boutonnieres, someone who forgot the rings, and a DJ asking what’s happening next. You deserve to be the one getting married, not the one running the event. 💍

When you’re having a beautiful backyard wedding… but Dad always mows the lawn on Saturdays 😆 Sasha: “Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today—” Lawn mower: BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR Love conquers all. Even yard maintenance. 💍🌿

Honoring a life of service with intention and care. This veteran’s Celebration of Life was planned to reflect pride, remembrance, and gratitude, using patriotic décor, meaningful details, and a calm, supportive flow for family and guests. It was an honor to help create a space to remember, reflect, and celebrate a life well lived.

Black velvet. Burgundy florals. Candlelight that feels slightly dramatic. It looks like Halloween… but it’s actually two people wildly in love getting married. 🖤 Moody, romantic, a little mysterious, and completely unforgettable. Not every love story wears blush. Some of them wear velvet 🖤

Citrus in its most elegant form 🍊 This bright, summery tablescape mixes crisp white plates, a mustard napkin, and a dried orange detail for a look that feels fresh, fun, and still totally polished. Lush ranunculus and garden roses in warm sunset tones pair beautifully with scattered lemons and halved grapefruit, and the rose gold flatware adds just the right touch of shine. Perfect for Italian-inspired weddings and al fresco celebrations. Rentals: EventCo ❤️
