It's my Mom's birthday!!!!!! I have to say - you don't realize that your Mom has been pretty much right the whole time until you grow up and become an adult. You think...."Yeah. She was kinda right (in most cases)". But you don't admit she was right, you just tell her, "Thank you for being such a great Mom!" 😉 😆 Thank you Mom for being #1 and for playing your "volunTOLD" part in @sweet_elevations ! The community loves you, but I love you more! Happy Birthday and many, many more filled with good health, love, and lots of happiness!

That's it! That's the post!

𝙃𝙚𝙧𝙚’𝙨 𝙨𝙤𝙢𝙚𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙬𝙚 𝙬𝙖𝙣𝙩 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙩𝙤 𝙠𝙣𝙤𝙬: there’s absolutely 𝘯𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 wrong with choosing a small, intimate wedding surrounded by your closest family and friends. The moment you said “yes” marks the beginning of a beautiful journey, one that’s entirely yours to shape. For many, these smaller gatherings feel like home—a space filled with love, laughter, and the people who know you best. We’re almost positive that James and Krystle Nelson felt the same way. There’s something magical about celebrating your union in a way that reflects your heart.

We’ve seen firsthand how these intimate celebrations allow couples to truly connect with their guests, to savor every smile, every laugh, and every heartfelt toast. And believe us when we say, the joy of your day isn’t measured by the size of the guest list, but by the love that fills the room.

Your wedding is a reflection of 𝘺𝘰𝘶, and that’s what makes it special. We hope you create a day that feels true to your love story—a day where every moment feels meaningful and every detail speaks to your journey as a couple.

So, to all the couples dreaming of a wedding that’s small in size but big on love, your day will be just as unforgettable as the love you share, and it will be a cherished memory for years to come.

𝐄𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲 𝐜𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐫𝐞𝐟𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐣𝐨𝐲 𝐨𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲. From the moment Red and Tamara Easley reached out to us for their Tulum-themed baby shower, we knew this event would be something truly special. As parents-to-be, you dream of celebrating this new chapter surrounded by the people you love—and what better way to treat your guests than with desserts that reflect you? For Red and Tamara, that meant a delightful spread featuring some of their favorites - especially the key lime cheesecake bars or key lime anything for Red.

With a nod to the theme, we added touches of Mexican flair to either the dessert or the desserts design, bringing their Tulum vision to life in every bite. Watching the smiles, laughter, and joy as these treats were shared made our hearts so full.

To all the parents-to-be out there: we understand how meaningful it is to create a celebration that feels as special and unique as this incredible journey you’re on. Whether it’s desserts that hold a special meaning or a theme that reflects your vision, every detail matters. Your day should be a beautiful reflection of your love, joy, and excitement for what’s to come—and we’d be honored to contribute to making your celebration unforgettable.
