Confessions of a girl in the Rebrand Process | a few fun elements

Can I just say that my website designer is amazing and legitimately deserves some kind of award??? I am literally one of the most indecisive people on the face of the earth, and I just can’t say enough about how patient, kind and understanding Krista has been as she’s helped me navigate through the rebranding process. I just went back and looked through all of our emails and we have SEVENTY-TWO emails that we’ve sent back and forth chatting about the vision and making little adjustments here and there to the new brand. She read through tons of emails about the little things that I like about each of my favorite websites (Hey Gorgeous Events, Lara Casey Media, and Stacie Shea Events!) and figured out ways to capture the things I liked about them in my own site while still making it unique…Krista you are so wonderful and this is me singing your praises from the rooftops because you deserve it!! I am THRILLED with how it’s turning out.

I blogged a part of my inspiration board here..and it’s INCREDIBLE to see how Krista is channeling it so well…The new brand is classier and more sophisticated…more polished..but fun too! It’s like a much more grownup version of my first brand. I love it because it feels like a combination of Kate Spade and J.Crew with just a little touch of Anthropologie. Krista captured the vision so perfectly! Picture clean lines, lots of gray, some shimmery gold, and a little bit of peach and navy. I am so in love with it. I dont want to give too much away yet, because it’s still a work in process, but here’s just a little peek at a few elements of it! These are some of the buttons that are going on my new homepage. I can’t wait to unveil my new logo and the site once it’s finished! AHH!

What do you think so far? Happy Wednesday!!
