Ending the Year on a High Note
This year has been full of milestones, celebrations, and the kind of connections that remind us why life is so beautiful. One of the brightest highlights has been my "sistar" Krista’s wedding journey, a connective thread that has woven joy, laughter, and awe into this season of life.
When I look back on the whirlwind of Krista's wedding prep—planning the bachelorette party, attending wedding showers, and getting all the details just right—it was already clear that we were creating unforgettable memories. But none of us could have imagined how monumental it would all become.
The wedding itself was magical: set against the stunning backdrop of Desierto de los Leones, it had everything from mariachis with illuminated instruments to stilt walkers, mezcal cocktails, and a taco truck around midnight that made everyone swoon. Even the rain added a touch of cinematic charm to the day, as if the universe wanted to sprinkle a little extra drama and beauty on the festivities.
But the real jaw-dropper?
Krista’s wedding didn’t just stay in our cherished memories or our social media posts—it caught the attention of Vogue Magazine. Yes, Vogue.
Reflecting on this journey, I realize it’s not just about the glitz and glamour of a Vogue feature (though, let’s be honest, that’s incredible). It’s about how this year has been a series of moments tied together by the power of connection. From late-night chats to coordinating logistics, from shared laughs to silent tears, every step of Krista’s wedding adventure reminded me of the beauty of showing up for the people we love.
Krista’s wedding feels like the perfect metaphor for how this year has unfolded: rich with unexpected blessings, elevated by love, and made unforgettable by the people who surrounded me. Thank you!
❤️❤️❤️
Ending the year on this high note feels like an affirmation—a reminder to embrace the wonder that happens when you say “yes” to life, to love, and to the possibility that the next moment might just be Vogue-worthy, too.
As I step into the new year, this is the energy I’m carrying forward: celebrating the highs, cherishing the connections, and staying open to the idea that magic is always just around the corner. Here’s to more moments that make us feel alive, connected, and truly seen. 💫
What a way to close the chapter on this incredible year.
