Round Up: Sweet Emilia Jane

We are so excited to see what Sweet Emilia Jane is bringing to HITCHED. With her own brand of vintage loveliness, we are sure to be in for a treat! Check out her work here and here and come meet her at HITCHED!

Why do you do what you do?

I have always loved creating things - dances, jewelry, decorations, cupcakes - and I am also a super organized planner. Event planning and design is just the perfect blend of those two parts of my personality. Plus I love love and I'm a big mushy romantic. I love being a part of something so precious and helping couples show off their personalities during such a special day.

What should brides/grooms know about your service?

I don't believe there is an exact recipe for wedding planning and sometimes I like to break the rules. Each wedding is custom and unique to the couple. I want them to feel like their wedding totally represents their personalities and style.

What makes a wedding super rad to you?

Lots of love. It doesn't matter if there are 30 people or 300 people, the best weddings are when you can feel the love and support from everyone in the room. And a kick-ass dance party.

Name one wedding tradition that you wish to see re-invented.

Anyone who knows me knows that I love me some cake. But I hate the history of the cake cutting tradition and that really bums me out. I'd love for someone to come up with a rad reason for feeding each other cake (without shoving into each other's faces, please...that's just cake abuse).

What do you want the guests at HITCHED to remember about you?

I love to have fun and think outside the box.

In a nutshell:

Camping or Glamping?

I used to set up a tent in the backyard when I was a kid. Definitely camping (with an air mattress).

Cake or pie?

Cupcakes!

Beach or desert?

I used to be all beach but recently I have had a love affair with the desert.

French wine or Mexican beer?

Champagne.

Beatles or Stones?

Can I have a little of both with some Gram Parsons mixed in?

Mac or PC?

I have a love hate relationship with a PC.

Plaid or stripes?

Chevron all the way.

Boots or sneakers?

Flip flops or barefoot, mostly.

Night owl or early bird?

Night owl by nature but early bird by necessity.

French fries or milkshake?

Mmmm....milkshake.

Cat or dog?

Aw...both.

Hay or Chivari chairs?

Ghost chairs go with everything.
