It’s thanks to the ever-creative and competitive, ‘yes’ driven rental world that wedding planners can be as trend setting as we are. This shout out to the rental folks is long over due. This small tribute comes on the heels of a long couple of days spent ‘designing’ and brainstorming with a fabulous client. I want to tip my hat to Classic, Michael Prichett who leads a driven and dedicated team, Julie Peacock (so how many tents has she put up???) Alice with La Tavola who is the epitome of class, the ever-lovely Irish sisters Deirdre and Moira, Neil with Blueprint who never ceases to go the extra mile. Marshall with Wine Country Party and his super buttoned up group and top-notch product, Betsy Stone (how darn pretty can a linen get???) the welcoming ‘Classic’ ladies in St Helena who make their studio feel like home, Jeff Mills who exceeds expectations every time….the list goes on and on. And I mean that….Got Light? Stephanie Curtain, Napa Valley Linens, lovely Lily from Wildflower….

These fellow service providers make us look good, and they work hard. They work long hours, they care, and wow am I thankful.

Did I mention how much I love Peonies?
