On May 16th the In This Moment Weddings team gathered together for a day of fun in the sun! The amazing J yee Photography collaborated for a team photo shoot filled with bubbles, cheers and smiles! An important aspect for ITM Weddings is ensuring each team member feels valued, included and cherished. As we all know the last year has been overly stressful as the outside world is in a constant state of change and fear. This team photo shoots goal was to bring the team together in a fun and playful way. It is essential for each of our wedding planners to feel inspired and excited about their job. We asked Breanna, Danielle and Jaina a few questions about the day…
Breanna:
1) favorite inspirational quote
“Always Keep Fighting” – it may seem simple however those three words have been instrumental in my life for the past ten years. No matter how tough or stressful something becomes I remind myself to always keep fighting. If the pressure is due to my career, personal life or mental health I know I have a dependable and caring team of amazing people who are cheering me on! I am blessed to have Jaina and Danielle apart of ITM Weddings, they are both so talented and bring such a cheerful dynamic to the company. This quote has such a special place in my heart that October 2020 I decided to get it as a tattoo on my arm, so no matter the situation I know I am strong enough to keep fighting.
2) favorite part of the day
This is a tough one! I have been looking forward to reconnecting with the girls for months. The sun was shinning and the breeze was warm, the birds where singing in the background and all I kept thinking was WOW. The shoot was a much needed break from the day to day tasks of running a company. However after getting the photos back from J yee Photography I think the bubble photos turned out amazing!
3) something you are looking forward to in the future for the company/yourself
I have big plans for ITM Weddings. After dreaming of having my own company for 8 plus years I am making that dream a reality. In the next year I would love to see the company expand by adding another team member or two. Perhaps in the near future ITM Weddings can venture into BC and tap into the beautiful weddings in the Okanagan area. No matter what happens I am proud of the company and how much I’ve learned and experienced.
Danielle:
1) favorite inspirational quote
“We’ve got love and love is louder. We’ve got hope and hope is power.” This quote comes from a song by Jesse Labelle and I heard him sing it in concert once. It stopped me dead in my tracks because I felt like I had never heard anything that resonated with me so much. I try to operate every aspect of my day to day life keeping these two pieces in mind. I feel like if I have love and I have hope, then I have everything I need to get through anything.
2) favorite part of the day
We had a fun day with lots of laughs. It’s been a while since our team has been able to get together so it was such a good opportunity to get out, enjoy the sunshine, wear something that wasn’t sweatpants and reconnect as a team. Also, the Coutts Centre is gorgeous – what a happy place to hang out at!
3) something you are looking forward to in the future for the company/yourself
I am so excited to see where In This Moment Weddings grows over the next little while. I am also eager to continue to learn from Breanna and build on my wedding planning skills.
Jaina:
1) favorite inspirational quote
“Even if the skies get rough” In 2012, my grandfather passed away, and during that time, I continuously listened to the song “I won’t give up” by Jason Mraz. Since then, I can’t hear that song without thinking about my grandpa. It was a promise I made to him that no matter what happens in my life, I won’t give up, even if the skies get rough, I will continue to push through.
2) favorite part of the day
My favourite part of the day was when Breanna opened the sparkling apple juice, which exploded everywhere! Surprisingly this happened twice. The first time it went all over her and I, we did not manage to get any photos of it. The second time we were able to get some hilarious pictures of her struggling to open it. We were able to laugh and have fun together as a team, so that was also a plus!
3) something you are looking forward to in the future for the company/yourself
I am looking forward to learning more from Breanna and taking on more responsibility with the company. However, I am most excited for the journey we will take together and hopefully be hired for some destination weddings to travel and make more memories together as a team!
