It started with a text ...

It all started with a text, “You’re the most creative person I know – I thought this would be something you love!” Two days later and no response, Michelle sent a follow up text to Lauren, “Shoot – is this still your number?” Finally opening the links sent, Lauren replied, “Lets talk” and like many of the best things that happen on a warm spring evening with twinkling garden lights and fabulous cocktails (beware of the power of a beautiful French 75 - seen below), a partnership was formed when Lauren agreed. “Yes, I’m absolutely in – but you’re doing it with me!” Ever since ideas have been blooming, picnics have been popping, and unforgettable memories are being made.
