As we find ourselves amidst the enchanting seasons of fall and winter, it's a time for celebration, reflection and gathering close with loved ones. In this special edition of our magazine, we're delighted to bring you an array of inspiration and insights tailored to these magical seasons. Inside, you'll find three extraordinary real weddings, from a warm, rustic celebration to an opulent, all-white barn wedding!

Planning a wedding can be a delightful yet intricate journey, and one key element that often takes center stage is working with a rental company. We've reached out to wedding expert Lauren Krempec of Burns Special Events who shared her invaluable tips for navigating this important process, ensuring that your vision becomes a stunning reality! And if you're unsure of when you want to tie the knot, be sure to check out our 4 Seasons of Weddings feature for ideas and trends that can elevate your wedding, regardless of the date on the calendar.

Lastly, this September, we had the chance to host our fifth Photographer Collaborative Style Shoot Event at CityFlatsHotel in Grand Rapids, Michigan. It was an inspirational day packed full of creativity and fun, working with planner Leigha Vinson of EXL Events Co and Lead Photographer Kara Hanes Photography. We also hosted an incredible group of guest photographers who had the chance to network, learn and add a collection of beautiful images to their portfolios. Be sure to check out their photo spotlights from the event throughout this issue!

We invite you to immerse yourself in the beauty, romance and wisdom shared within these pages. We're honored to be your companions on this remarkable adventure!

With warmth and best wishes,
