I’m so excited to be sharing: Velvet Vows: A Roger’s Park Romance in Crimson and Gold (Part 1) ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

This editorial was deeply inspired by my love for Rogers Park, a community that feels rich in culture, romance, artistry, and connection. As a true Chicagoan, I wanted to create something that reflected the beauty of love in a space that feels both timeless and personal. Hidden gems like Colvin House deserve to be celebrated for the warmth and intimacy they bring to storytelling.

This project means so much to me as an evolving wedding planner and creative. Seeing one of my concepts fully come to life alongside such an incredible team reminded me how powerful collaboration and storytelling through design can truly be ❤️

Every year, the wedding industry publishes reports: spending trends, booking behavior, consumer insights. These publications are treated as the authority on how couples plan, budget, and make decisions. The problem is that most of this data was never built with Black brides at the center. Not intentionally excluded, just overlooked in the process.
