We’re continuing our Debrief Series, where we pull back the curtain on our biggest weddings of the season and share what really happens behind the scenes.
In this episode, Kelley walks through the story of a legacy client family that has trusted 618 Studios for over a decade, four daughters, four weddings, and countless lessons about what it means to serve with excellence, build connection, and create work that stands the test of time.
From building lifelong client relationships to evolving your artistry as the industry shifts, this episode is packed with insights that will remind you what matters most in building a sustainable, high-end brand.
We talk about legacy, loyalty, and the power of being known for how you make people feel. Because luxury isn’t just about price, it’s about trust, experience, and consistency over time.
If you’ve ever wondered how to turn clients into lifelong supporters or how to adapt your brand while staying true to your identity, this one’s for you.
🎧 Tune in to learn how to strengthen your client relationships, elevate your reputation, and position yourself as the go-to choice in your market.
