Oct 7, 2022

Hi friends! It’s been a minute since publishing my last blog post and I’m thrilled to be back consistently writing new content for you all.

EXPERIENCING MARYLAND WITH THE GRADUATE ANNAPOLIS
Oct 5, 2021

I’ve loved The Graduate Hotels ever since I was in college at The University of Mississippi. We had a Graduate Hotel location in Oxford and it was always one of my favorite spots. My friends and I would always visit the rooftop for cocktails and study for exams in their cute coffee cafe. The second you walk in the front doors of The Graduate Hotels you can immediately tell that every single detail was carefully curated and selected specifically for the particular location…

That’s why this year, I wasn’t initially planning on attending but I’m so glad I ended up going last minute…

Over the years, party planning has become one of my favorite pastimes. Because of this, I’ve definitely become my friends and families “go-to” when it comes to helping with events. Not only does it exercise my creativity but I also love celebrating the people I love in general. There’s just something so cool about coming up with this crazy, wild vision in your head and then seeing it come to life before your eyes…
