The Gift of Time - 2021 in Review

Dec 28

December should be dedicated to spending time with loved ones and counting one's blessings, but if you’re anything like me sometimes it’s easier said than done. Between work, holiday shopping, and endless to-do lists, many of us get so caught up in commitments that we forget to stop and take in the magic of the season.

2021 turned out to be the busiest year so far in my career as an event and wedding planner. All milestone celebrations are special to be a part of, but the events that took place this year will forever hold a warm spot in my heart. The weddings that had been postponed in 2020 due to the pandemic, including my own, could finally take place in 2021 and nothing could have prepared me for the amount of love and gratitude that came with it as a result. Seeing families and friends come together again to celebrate after so much uncertainty and time spent apart brought me immense joy that is hard to put into words.

After an incredibly hectic year, I have decided to give myself an early holiday present - the gift of time. For the first time since I started my business six years ago, I have taken the entire month of December off to relax, reflect, and recharge. As I close the chapter to 2021 I find myself feeling particularly grateful for the opportunities that I’ve been given this year and the possibilities that lie ahead in 2022. If the pandemic has taught me anything I hope this is it - live now, love now, and appreciate every moment spent together with those you hold dear.

I wish you a wonderful, stress-free holiday season filled with love and everything your heart desires.

Happy Holidays!
