When we {Nicole and Ian Riley} founded StudioWed in 2007, we had no idea what an incredible journey it would lead us to.  We have been thrilled with the growth and the changes over the last few years.  It has been an amazing experience to see this little dream turn into what it is today.

It has been a BUSY year at StudioWed and I know you will love some of the new and exciting things we will be launching in the next year.  We have some fab projects in the works for all of our brides + grooms that we are beyond excited to implement!

One of our biggest projects has been defining who we are and what we stand for.  We know that amongst this amazing collective of wedding professionals in 4 cities across the country, we have an incredible sense of family.  We have common goals, and common needs.  We help each other.  When we go to visit other studios – we hear the word “family”.  And so today, we are unveiling “The StudioWed Way”… The Culture and What We Stand For.  So what does this mean for you?

As a couple planning a wedding, you know that we, as a collective, stand behind each and every word listed below.  We help each other.  We commit to creating an experience. We are engaged and passionate.  We are a family.  And we have fun.  And you…can have confidence in the integrity of the team.

So thank you, from the bottom of our hearts for allowing us to be a part of your wedding planning.  We look forward to chatting with you all very soon!

We wish you and your family a very happy holiday season, and a happy new year!

~ Nicole and Ian Riley, Founders
