vendor love...

the wedding community that we have here on the central coast is - seriously - the best! 

i cannot lament enough about how incredibly talented and professional each individual and business is. but number one - everyone is so amazingly supportive. being a small business owner, and basically a one-woman-show - this support is incalculable, and i truly appreciate how everyone embraces the community over competition attitude. 

so today i wanted to share - and give a shout out to - a local wedding vendor that (as a calligrapher running my own business) i truly appreciate:

embellish vintage rentals - thank you for all that you do and have!

if you haven't heard of embellish - which is located in nipomo and ran by judi powers of the dana-powers house - you need to check it out! the views from the property of the eastern hills are spectacular, and the grounds are immaculate (the house is a dream!!)...

but it's the inventory and collection of antique and vintage finds that judi has amassed over time that will blow your mind! i am totally a kid in a candy store every time i go there (and a slight bull in a china shop too). from the bigger furniture items, to the small little details - there is so much gorgeousness going on. so many pieces of history all under one roof.

what also makes embellish awesome - is the professionalism from judi and sheila (her right hand woman). they seriously are so accommodating and great at what they do. i know that when i pick up pieces from there - that they will be ready on time, prepared perfectly, packaged nice and neat - and the quality is pristine. the majority that i use from embellish are the frames and materials to create calligraphy signage - but i have also rented vases, glassware, plates and tables.

thank you - again - embellish! you rock. and i know i will always love working with you and on your lovely pieces.

xo,

raina
