THE TAPESTRY BLOG
Here you will find resources for planning, features on Tapestry couples, information about the Tapestry way of planning weddings, elopements, and ceremonies, and reflections on the wedding industry from our team. We also love to feature vendors and share the creative efforts from our styled shoots .
Our blog library is a consistent, relevant, real-talk resource to help you prepare for your launch into marriage. Whether it’s about how to have the hard conversations about who pays for what in your wedding or practical questions like how to hike in your wedding outfit, we want to be here to support you through this process and beyond.
Is there a topic you want us to cover? Email us here, and we will see if we can put some thoughts together. :)
