Reflecting on a Magical 2024: Weddings, Adventures, and Milestones
Wow, what a year it’s been! As 2024 comes to an end, I’m feeling so grateful (and a little emotional) looking back on everything that’s happened. This year, I had the absolute joy of illustrating 64 weddings! From the rolling hills of Scotland to the romantic châteaux of France and everywhere in between, I’ve been on a whirlwind of love, laughter, and glitter—so much glitter.
Adventures with the Unfiltered Brides
One of my favourite highlights? Touring with the fabulous Unfiltered Brides! It was nonstop fun and full of surprises (including way too many snacks on the road). I loved meeting so many amazing couples, hearing their stories, and showing off my illustrations as part of the tour. Every day was an adventure, and I couldn’t be more thankful for the memories.
Podcasting Fun with Cherrywood Studios
Another pinch-me moment was being invited to record a podcast with the wonderful Cherrywood Studios team. Sitting down to chat about Woo Illustrations, my love for weddings, and the magic behind the scenes was such a thrill. It felt like catching up with friends while sharing my passion—a true highlight of 2024!
Big Life Changes (and a Little Chaos)
This year wasn’t just about weddings. I also landed a teaching job (yay!), moved house, and somehow managed to keep Woo Illustrations thriving through it all. Let’s be honest, it’s been a little chaotic at times, but it’s also been full of growth and so much joy. These moments have reminded me just how much I love what I do and how lucky I am to share it with so many wonderful people.
Celebrating My Amazing Couples
To all my newlyweds: you are the heart and soul of Woo Illustrations. Each wedding I’ve been a part of this year has been as unique and special as the couples themselves. From elegant black-tie evenings to relaxed, whimsical celebrations, every single one was a dream to illustrate. Seeing your smiles when you receive your drawings (and maybe a little sparkle!) is what makes it all worth it. Thank you for trusting me to capture your memories.
Excitement for 2025
And now, here we are, gearing up for 2025! I’ve already got some incredible weddings in the diary, and I’m buzzing with excitement to bring more of your beautiful stories to life. I can’t wait to see where this journey takes us next.
To everyone who’s supported Woo Illustrations this year—whether you’ve booked me, followed along, or cheered me on—thank you from the bottom of my heart. You’ve made 2024 unforgettable. Here’s to an even more magical 2025 filled with love, laughter, and a whole lot of sparkle!
