letting the process lead

Seeing the setting through a personal lens

Maureen and George were drawn to experiences that felt immersive and rooted in history. They also shared a passion for fine dining and had a flair for the extravagant. They wanted their wedding to honor tradition, evoke every sense imaginable, and embrace a world of vitality and drama.

We cranked up the Vivaldi and immersed ourselves in Italian aesthetics: intricate ornament, historical maps, layered marble, decadent color, and the unapologetic glamour of Italian fashion.

Rather than belonging to any one period or reference, those influences were layered and recombined into something entirely its own: a version of Verona that could only belong to Maureen and George.

Maureen and George were drawn to experiences that felt immersive and rooted in a deep sense of history. With a passion for fine dining and high fashion, they wanted the wedding to have a sense of drama, and unapologetic abundance.

We cranked up the Vivaldi and immersed ourselves in the sensual, extravagant aesthetics of Italy: Renaissance ornament, historic maps, marbled papers, saturated color, gilded details, and the glamour of Italian fashion.

Rather than belonging to any one period or reference, those influences were layered and recombined into something entirely its own: a Verona seen through Maureen and George’s wonderfully maximalist lens.

Virginia and Carlos were drawn to the vibrant energy of San Miguel, its artisan traditions, Spanish Colonial architecture, and the time-worn textures found throughout the city. But their own aesthetic was much quieter: soft neutrals, organic textures, and a sense of restraint. 

We found the connection in the city’s materiality and craftsmanship. The dimensional quality of Otomi textiles, carved stonework, aged plaster, and natural materials gave us a way to reference San Miguel through texture and form rather than color. 

The result felt at home in San Miguel without losing the quiet restraint that felt so distinctly like Virginia and Carlos.

For the dinner at Promontory, our starting point was spring, abstract expressionism, the landscape of Napa, and a desire for something that felt wild and unexpected.

What connected these concepts was a sense of emergence and energy. We looked at the untamed terrain surrounding the cultivated vineyard, and the expressive quality of things coming to life in spring.

Those ideas became a visual language of gestural marks, moody color, and organic forms. Rather than illustrating spring or Napa literally, the design found a way for all of those influences to belong to the same world.

What connected these concepts was a sense of emergence and energy. We looked at the relationship between the untamed terrain surrounding Promontory's vineyard, and the expressive quality of things coming to life in spring.

As both artist and designer, I create every illustration, pattern, monogram, and artistic detail specifically for your project. Nothing is sourced from the public domain, licensed or created through AI. Every element begins with the story we are creating together.

The idea is only as strong as its execution. I work closely with skilled printers and artisans to find the materials, processes, and techniques that best serve each design, considering everything from the feel of the paper to the way a piece opens in your guest’s hands.

A highly custom process shouldn’t feel overwhelming. I’ll guide you through each decision, knowing when to invite you into the creative process and when to simply take care of the details. Throughout, you can expect clear communication, transparency around budget, and a process that keeps everything moving forward on schedule.
