“WHAT STARTED AS A FEW WEDDING DIY’S TURNED INTO A GREAT OPPORTUNITY TO BRING SOMETHING DIFFERENT TO THE EAST COAST WEDDING INDUSTRY.”
— YOURS FOR THE DAY
OUR STORY
Like many other 2020 brides, we decided to re-schedule our wedding after a tough year of Covid lay offs and restrictions. After planning a 140 person-rustic-farmhouse-sit-down-dinner wedding, we decided to scale our numbers back and have an 80-person-oceanfront-backyard-cocktail style wedding. Which meant, It was back to the drawing board.
The following 10 months were spent fully embracing the wedding planning process. With not much luck sourcing pieces that fit my vision, as well as an abundance of time on my hands, I decided what the heck - let’s get crafty.
From that moment on, we started building, thrifting, DIYing, and everything else in between to bring to life this new vision. I thought surely other brides would be interested in renting these out after the wedding, right?
Fast forward to today and we have now added event & wedding planning + day of coordination services, stationery, floral arrangements, event packages, and more.
Through all of the re-scheduling, vendor communication, spreadsheets, guest list revisions, checklists, and DIY’s, I realized planning and executing meaningful events was something I truly found joy in. I am thrilled to be a part of an industry with such talented vendors and lovely people who are putting their trust in me for such an important day.

thank you for being here
a little about me
I’m an east coast gal with Cape Breton roots. I’m my happiest self either on the water or at the cottage in Mabou, CB (preferably shucking oysters and step dancing to the Rankins).
I love DIYs, Homesense, beating my husband at Catan, and of course, planning & hosting events.
Charcuterie, caesars, and nachos are my jam, and on the other end of that spectrum I am incredibly curious and passionate about women’s health. I love learning how we can support our bodies and cycles. You can follow me on that journey if you’d like @leahbytheocean
Thank you for taking the time to get to know me - I’m excited you’re here!
