This month’s In The Light post features my favorite design duo, Megan and Emily from Enjoy Events Co. So much talent and creativity between the two of them as they execute some of the most eye candy-filled weddings and events. I hope you’re inspired because I know I am. I absolutely love collaborating and shooting their work — and they are ridiculously fun to hang out with too! They recently launched a full on floral design studio as well, called Shotgun Floral Studio — you can see some of their floral goodness featured in our shoot. You’ll be able to see even more from our shoot in an upcoming feature on Glitter Guide — can’t wait to share!
1. THE COLOR BLUE: don’t know how to explain it but the color blue makes my heart sing in every way. every shade of blue. if you look closely you can see it in all natural elements: sky, earth, ocean. see, I already have goosebumps.
2. A QUIET MOMENT: with all of the hustle and bustle of life and work nothing beats a good quiet moment, even in the middle of the city on a crazy day. it’s important to find the time.
3. THE COAST: i grew up on the coast in santa cruz and have spent much of my life living in coastal towns up until now. there is something so wonderful about being able to get to the water and relax by the sea. i really miss it sometimes. two words. BIG SUR.
4. FOOD: i know everyone says that but it’s true. anything and everything about food, local food, dining, wine; the whole experience, really. you can ask my mom.
5. GOOD DESIGN: i love surrounding myself with interesting, unique, thought provoking materials, decor + art. the culture of design is fascinating. i just wish i had more time focus on it and perfect it in my own home, sometimes. with time.
1. A HOT DAY: when the sun is shinning bight there is nothing better. i am motivated, energized and function better when the heat is on. walking around barefoot on a summer day is what i am all about.
2. A GOOD ROAD TRIP: traveling is something the mister and i try to make a priority. exploring a new area, seeing a new cultural and experiencing new things is so inspiring. whether it’s just a good old road trip or taking a flight somewhere far, traveling is a must.
3. A GOOD JAM: whether it’s seeing a show live or turning up the radio, a good song makes me happy.
4. A GOOD NIGHTS SLEEP: i could honestly sleep for 10 hrs a night and still want more sleep. an early riser i am not. the best part of the night is when i can hear our dog snoring down the hall while i am still trying to hit the hay. sleep is good and i always want more of it.
5. A GOOD GATHERING: nothing beats hanging with good friends. spending time with family and friends is a great way for me to escape, sit back and enjoy. our group of friends hosts monthly dinners where we all cook a good meal, drink wine and catch up.
A big thank you to Megan and Emily for being, In The Light!
