“The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.”


There could be 500 photos in this post, and it wouldn't be enough. Though I knew Travis in high school, and loved him then, it had been a minute since we saw each other outside of social media. He also knows so many creative professionals, so when they asked me to grab some dinner and talk possibilities, I was floored.


They are the hospitality standard in my life and I don't say that lightly! Whenever I travel to DC, they are right there with an open door and a glass of good bourbon. Dinners that restore the soul and we always laugh a lot. I was so honored to partner with them for their big day in our hometown - Charleston, SC. They both have a personality that welcomes you as your whole self, and allows you to really live freely.

It's one of my favorite parts about them!


If you've never been, the images below aren't the exception - this sort of architecture and beauty and sunshine are the rule. In the spring, you can smell the Carolina jasmine around every turn and the city is really coming alive with warm weather and visitors. Throw in a beautiful historic home built before the Civil War, an absolutely amazing vendor team, and a crew of stellar folks - it was one of the best days of my career.


Congratulations, Travis + Justin!

So honored to call you friends.
