Opening our Richmond, VA hub has been one of the best thrills of our year! We were blessed to connect with Chantel & her now hubby, Jake last year. When they asked Mostly Becky to help plan their event, we could hardly contain ourselves! They are the best couple! 

See more of them here. 

We cannot wait to share more of their big day with you. But for now, enjoy their beautiful day in downtown Richmond, VA. 

TAKE A LOOK! 

A Wedding Surprise in Des Moines, Iowa

One thing I truly do love about my job, is no matter how many weddings I have planned (way too many to count), there is never a single one that is the same. The Wedding Day has become a beautiful opportunity to show your individual uniqueness. 

I am often asked, "What is the craziest wedding you have done?" And it is my pleasure to share with you a little story about 3 beautiful people I got the pleasure of knowing, just a little bit. It may not be the craziest, but is one of the specialist moments I have be lucky enough to be apart of. 

"Hi, I am looking for help planning my reception. Here's the thing, my husband and I are already married and we have a beautiful son. I am really looking for a great party,  with amazing decor and really just a great party! Do you think you can help" And of course I jumped on the opportunity! Events that are out of the ordinary are my specialty! Within a few weeks, I knew this would be an event I would really enjoy planning. 

"Hi Becky, so glad we could talk, well, I have some news....I'm pregnant and I was thinking, I would love to reveal the gender of the baby at the reception, do you think that is something we can pull off?" 

Immediately I started to brainstorm with my lovely bride. Together we came up with a one-of-a-kind gender reveal.....A BALLOON DROP over the dance floor! That was it! How was I going to pull this off?

The problem, most balloon drops, or should I say ALL balloon drops are transparent! So, after many dead-ends, my amazing assistant and I just made one! I will spare you the grueling details of this process. But, I will tell you this. We got it put together, hung up on the vaulted ceiling, and no balloons were in sight! 

That nigh before the reception, I could hardly sleep. I was so nervous, I had no clue if my balloon drop would be still connected to the ceiling when I arrived in the morning.

But, to my surprise, it was there! And no colored balloons could be seen. I was ecstatic! After being cornered by many guests who were trying their best to bribe me to spill the secret the time finally came for the gender of the baby to be revealed. 

This moment was priceless, and I was so blessed to be apart of it! 
Thank you Quinn for allowing me into such a beautiful moment in your life!

Madelyn & Dane Urbandale, Iowa

It is always such a pleasure to reveal my beautiful couples to you all... and each and every one of them holds a special place in my heart. They are all so unique, and along the planning process I am so blessed to get to know them just a little bit.

This January, I had the absolute pleasure to plan Madelyn & Dane's wedding. And when I say absolute pleasure, it is entirely understated! The first time I met Madelyn & Dane they were just dating. Madelyn loves people and this radiates off of her and lightens up an entire room. And then Dane enters with this solid, genuine, security. His love for the Lord not only brings stability to a room. It almost calms you.

Now besides both of their genuine love for our Lord, they are two of the silliest - care-free persons I have ever met. I cannot begin to describe just how blessed I have been to be a glimse in their special day.
