Eleanor & Justin’s first dance, tucked beneath layers of beach grass and woven textures, felt like stepping into a moment completely their own.

The overhead installation mirrored the natural beauty of the coast, organic, windswept, and effortlessly inviting. The softness of the grasses paired with the warmth of the woven pendants created a space that felt both elevated and grounded, like a true extension of the Cape itself.

As they danced, surrounded by their people, the entire tent felt alive, intimate, textural, and filled with that quiet kind of magic you can’t quite put into words.

Still feeling the glow from @kindred.collective.wed ✨

There are industry events… and then there are experiences that shift you.

Kindred is intentionally designed to bring together a small, curated group of the best in our industry, not for surface-level networking, but for real connection. Thoughtful conversations, hand-matched introductions, shared meals, and moments that feel more like a deep exhale than a conference.

And that is exactly what it felt like.

I came home feeling inspired, creatively recharged, and most importantly… connected. Connected to people who understand this work, who value the same level of intention, and who show up with openness, honesty, and heart.

To the Kindred hosts, Rebecca and Erin of @indigoeventdesign , thank you for creating something so special. The care, the intention, the environment you’ve built… it does not go unnoticed. You’ve created space for all of us to slow down, be seen, and build something meaningful together.

Tia & Nick’s first dance, framed by a conservatory built entirely from the ground up.

A glass-paneled ceiling, soft draped walls, a statement chandelier overhead, and a bold checkered floor anchoring the room, each element layered with intention, creating a space that feels both refined and immersive.

Equal parts structure and atmosphere. A moment that feels as elevated as it looks.
