Let me tell ya something: I don’t take sitting at this desk lightly. This same desk I bought off the @target app a week after getting married, a day before starting my MBA program, and three weeks before buying the Broomstick domain name and vowing to make weddings more diverse online even if I had no clue how to. It’s the same desk I use today.⠀ ✨⠀ This week I plugged in my podcast mic and sat with some of the finest: @wearecurvyrose, @forwivesonly, @katelynstanis, @drrebekahmontgomery — not to mention brides like @empress_naomi & @_imani_nia, who shared their lessons learned on how to plan a multicultural wedding, setting expectations in your marriage, and more!⠀ ✨⠀ What’s one thing you wish you could ask a wedding expert if you got the chance?⠀ ✨⠀ PS: to listen to the 30+ episodes of real talk wedding and marriage advice, simply search for “The Broomstick Podcast” on Spotify, Google Play, and Apple. Take a screenshot of your favorite episode and post to your IG story, I wanna see!! 😍🔥⠀ -⠀ -⠀ -⠀ -⠀ #jumpthebroom #blackbride #blavity #blkcreatives #blackbloggers #latinablogger #browngirlbloggers #blackentrepreneur #weddingplanning #weddingplanners #engaged #engagedlife #girlbosslife #sayido #inclusion #weregettingmarried #blacklove #blackloveisbeautiful #weddingvendor #engagementshoot #blackgirlswhoblog #naturalhairbride #blackwedding #diversity #representationmatters #bridemakeup #maidofhonor #blackownedbusiness #buyblack #supportblackbusiness
when we had our wedding profiled in the paper, it meant something to me. not for fame or a “look at me” moment, but because maybe someone who looked like me would see it. for the simple truth to be heard and seen by every reader: WE get married too, and beautifully. ✨ we’ve been approached by a major paper, and if you would like to be considered for your wedding — beautiful in every way — to be featured, fill out the link in our bio by tomorrow. 💪🏽⠀ -⠀ Loaded question: why does representation mean to you? Tell me below. 💥⠀ -⠀ PS: I interviewed SIX amazing interviews for the podcast today. So very exhilarating and helping to put knowledge out there that I wished for when I was getting married makes me SHIVER with glee. I’ll share more tomorrow. Xoxo, Nat ❤️
once a week austin & I get together and have date night. It’s not always fancy, or a dinner, or on a Thursday, but we always have it and have ONE rule: we talk about our dreams. This week we talked about how to get into real estate, which is Austin’s dream of dreams. This community and business allow me to do what I love — providing everyday advice and connection to empower marriages — while strengthening my own and having the financial flexibility to chase our dreams in all forms without fear. I don’t take that or any dollar you spend lightly so THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart. ✨⠀ -⠀ Nosy Question:⠀ what do you do on date nights? 😍⠀ -⠀ PS: our private community of brides, including an on-demand wedding planning course, forums to share inspiration, and monthly marital counseling, is opening up soon. DM me if you want the invite!! 💥

In case you needed a reminder. life is full of obstacles, but it’s full of opportunities too, both big and small. it’s all about how you choose to look at things 💥⠀ -⠀ quick question: what’s a wedding task you’re fired up about finishing? 🔥⠀ -⠀ #broomstickweddings #jumpthebroom #weddingsforall #weddingplanning #weddingplanners #weddinggoals #newlywedlife #blackbride #weregettingmarried #latinablogger #blackbloggers #buyblack #browngirlbloggers #podcaster #weddingadvice #weddingvibes #weddingvendors #gettingmarriedsoon #weregettingmarried #isaidyestothedress #bridegroom #bridetobe2018 #bridetobe2019 #weddingtips #bridesquad #bridetribe #weddingsofinstagram ⠀
One question for ya:⠀ ⠀ Who is pumped it’s Friday? 🙌🏽⠀ ⠀ As for me, I’m pumped because we’re hosting family & friends at our house.⠀ ⠀ A quick tip: host if you can. It actually helps Austin and I feel like a unit! Like, welcome to OUR home.⠀ ⠀ Ok I’ll be honest: I actually when typing that first sentence above, I first typed “hosting at my house,” then went back immediately and fixed it!⠀ ⠀ What I’m learning: There’s nothing solely YOURS as a married couple — except my lipstick for example. You are a unit of two amazingly unique individuals, and it’s a beautiful thing.⠀ ⠀ What are you most excited for this weekend? 💥⠀ ⠀ 📸: @wearecurvyrose⠀
