The one thing for your life transition that will help bring it all together
Planning a life transition can feel all over the place. There are so many thoughts and ideas swirling around that it can be hard to see how it all comes together or even where you should start. When I was planning my wedding I decided to go back to my graphic design roots. I started where any designer would start, a mood board.
What is a vision board?
A vision board is a collection of images, words, colors and textures that convey a cohesive vibe or vision. A vision board generally fits on one page so that it’s an easy reference point to summarize the look and feel you are going for.
Check out the one I made for my wedding.
Why does it help?
It serves as the guiding light for the many many decisions you have to make. Getting your ideas out of your head makes it so much easier to see how everything can come together. It will also make you feel much more organized knowing that you have all your ideas in one place.
How to use it
Not sure if something feels right? Check it against the vision board. Does it go? If yes, roll with it. If no, think about how you can adjust.
There are so many wonderful things that I was able to incorporate into my wedding because of my vision board. It gave me the inspiration I needed to bring my ideas to life.

Have fun with it
Set a monthly or weekly reminder to check your vision board. Taking a peak at it every so often can provide some new found inspiration. That little extra motivation might be the thing you need to get excited and back on track.
Don’t forget your vision board doesn’t have to be set in stone. It can change and evolve as your ideas do. Plans change so let your vision board be flexible too.
A vision board is the perfect way to define your vision. Using one visual reference point makes it easier to see how things come together. If you need help getting your ideas out of your head and into action let’s work together to create your vision board.
